Reasonably comfortable shoes for walking/general activities. I wouldn't recommend them for traction activities like basketball or running. In my opinion, these are more shoes for leisure / walking. They just don't "grab" your feet, even when fully dressed and laced, and I never felt like my foot got stuck in the shoe. When I play basketball, my feet feel like they're slipping on the soles of my shoes, but that can only be because they're new. Other new shoes have not shown such results…
