I really wanted to like these shoes. They are unique and look cool. However, they are just uncomfortable. I won't go as far as to say that my legs hurt, but my legs were asking to be taken off even though I was just sitting at the table. To make matters worse, I paced the hallway to see how they felt walking. Each step made the expected sound when you take a step. At the same time, each step with the right foot made 2 sounds. So basically I sounded weird when I left. It was very strange. So two big hits. That's all I need to decide to send them back.
