I got them last week and I was afraid that they are fake and will break. But by wearing them I know they are legal! The job I work on requires you to be on your feet the entire shift and they are perfect for that! You feel like you're walking on the carpet. I was a little surprised by the shoe sizing so if you don't like bulky big shoes that stand out then these aren't for you. I personally love this type of look and would highly recommend it if you do too. I still hope they don't break in the coming months just because they've seen a few other reviews and see how it was. But for now I'm satisfied and very satisfied and it's such a good price at $50. There were some stains on the box but I guess it's just from shipping and maybe the package dropped, I'm not sure? But the shoes are in perfect condition!
