text: Love these shoes! They are very light weight and provide great support.  I wore them on a European trip, walking all day, etc. They are really versatile - I've worn them in the water and they dry very quickly.  I've worked out, skateboarded, walked, taken them on a surf hike, ridden bikes, and generally tried to abuse them and they're holding up great.  I've worn Vans for years as casual shoes, but haven't put them on once since buying these.  I like them so much, I bought a second color.  The red on these provides a great hint of color.
