I first bought this shoe while visiting Florida. Since I liked it very much, I bought a second pair in Germany for about 100 dollars. for the same amount. Both shoes are worn out and I wanted to buy a new pair. In my size, they cost over 200 dollars in Germany! So I checked out Walmart in the US: $55 for the same shoes. Plus taxes and postage, I paid 86 less than 50% cheaper than in Germany. Good business!
