text: Ok, first, the pros: These shoes are very very cute. They fit a half size up I think. I normally wear a 7.5 and the 8s fit fine. The color is a true kelly green and they are very shiny like patent leather.<br /><br />Now the cons: 1) other reviews saying that these would be perfect in the rain are just plain crazy. I lived in western Washington State (the rainiest place in America) for 11 years and I can tell you hands down these shoes would be a joke on a rainy day. They rise a mere inch from the ground at the ball of the foot. That will keep the shoes absolutely flooded, which, while it won't hurt the shoes a bit as they are 100% plastic, it will be a nightmare for your feet. 2) The shoes are plastic inside and out. I already have sweaty-prone feet, and wearing those little tiny sock liners helps this problem immensely in any shoe. Unfortunately, with these shoes, they are very uncomfortable across the tops of my toes when I walk. I'm not sure it has to do with the little socks. I think they would hurt my toes anyway. So I will wear these shoes only when I know I won't have to be walking very much.
