I bought these in the white and silver/green (gorgeous color by the way). I first decided to buy the white to take on my three week trip to Croatia, Paris, Amsterdam. I wasn't sure how the white would hold up without getting really dirty. But non-the-less, I decided they felt so VERY comfortable, it was worth taking them.First, they were absolutely fantastic to walk in ALL day (7-12 miles of walking per day, as you do on European vacations). I did NOT have to break them in, in any way whatsoever. They were comfortable from the start (and let me add I have a small bunion, from my years of high heels, that apparently loved them too). Oh, and occasionally I'd add a comfort pad if I knew it'd be a long day on my feet; but quite honestly, they're cushy soft anyway and found it was not necessary. My feet were never sore at any time or even by the end of a long walking day; amazing!Second. They did get a little dirty, and even more so at home from constant wear (love them so much). I have thrown them in a snug garment bag multiple different times, tossed them in the washing machine on a cold water wash and they wash up beautifully without any damage or breakdown to the shoes - but air dry them.Third. They are so fashionable. They not only feel great but they look fantastic with everything you wear. I've had so many unexpected compliments on them. As I mentioned before, I also bought the silver/green pair. They're gorgeous. What a great color!So overall, I am SUPER happy with the style, fit, durability and comfort of these shoes. I'd give them 100 stars if I could.
I love this shoe. I have owned several pairs over the past few years and will continue to buy more as long as it remains available. As someone who would prefer to be barefooted most of the time, these shoes protect my feet without being too confining. I love the slim profile and basic design. More importantly it is super comfy and fit perfectly. Thanks to the breathable fabric and flexible sole, they fit your feet in the same way yoga pants fit your body.On the downside, the interior cushioning wears down pretty quickly and the overall lifespan of the shoe is shorter than most other shoes I have owned. And I wouldn't choose them for more intense activites. But for everyday wear they are an ideal shoe for people that don't like shoes. I sincerely hope that they never discontinue this model.
These are my favorite everyday tennis shoe. They are so light weight and comfortable. I ordered my normal size 10 and they fit perfectly. One thing I really love is how easy I can wash and dry them. I am obsessed with clean shoes and I can wash these in the washer with no bag and other laundry and they are fine. They are so light weight that I just throw them in the dryer with everything else and they dry perfectly. They come out looking brand new every time.
I love these shoes, they are very comfortable and lightweight which. I currently own three pairs and thought I'd try a different color. I didn't love the color (off white with blush stripes) and ended up returning them. The other downfall of these shoes is that they don't provide a lot of protection, when they get wet, you can feel it immediately and there isn't a lot of padding between my foot and the ground. Even with these two negative aspects, I will continue to buy these shoes in colors that I like because of the comfort level.
This is my 4th pair of these shoes. They are light weight and comfortable. A joy to wear..
These are more a twist and pull on, Not a easy slip in shoe. The shoe it's self is not the most comfortable I've ever had but their ok. I don't recommend these for true runners. I run, jog, speed walk, hike/climb for 2 hours or more a day and these needed more comfort to last the intensity of hours which is why I added the running Dr Scholl's insoles to them. They also are flat and lack arch support but the insoles I added solve that problem. These are basic cheap kind of shoes that really are only good for running errands and whatnot. But I really don't recommend these to anyone older who would have a difficult time putting them on. As I said before they are Not easy slip in shoes more of a twist and pull pain, I have regular gym shoes that are laced and tied up that are easy to just slip in to unlike these. They are true to size, I'm an in-between size depending on the shoe/brand I'm an 8 - 8 1/2. I'm glad I got these in an 8 1/2 due to me needing room for added insole comfort/support and socks.
Good everyday wear around.
I love these shoes. they are extremely comfortable and when you are on your feet all day comfort is what you're looking for, but these are stylish too!
