I can't say I hate these shoes but I feel tighter in the sneakers. Dude shoes are easy to put on and take off. I still have them, I used to run to the car quickly, fill up the tank, my friend takes them out to smoke. I will never wear them to work, moving house, mowing the lawn, doing outdoor work, long walks, etc. They are just too loose to properly support your foot. I once slightly injured my ankle wearing them while walking on a flat carpet at work.
