text: I've been on the hunt for gray shoes for awhile so I thought this would work. They look cheap in person. Part of it is my fault for not reading that the shoe has a velcro strap. What adult wears velcro on shoes? That definitely cheapens the shoe, but the shoe would look cheap even without it. If the shoes were cheaper I may have kept them, but for the price they were so not worth it. Definite return.
