The sole was hard, and the material around my pinky toe was ok, but over time would feel crunched...  I was hoping for much more give and, well... I gave them away as soon as I found a replacement.  I buy shoes for look, function and comfort.  I also had to keep the zipper open, so my toes wouldn't squish to the ultimate discomfort through the holes.
