text: I got the pink version of these from the Steve Madden store, and they material they are made of, described as &#34;man made&#34; and &#34;pony hair&#34; rubbed off very easily. I'm not sure how, it's almost as if the hem of my pants rubbed off the hairs of the material.  They also started cracking at the toe of the shoe. Not very well-made for the price, and the company isn't that helpful.  I took care of the shoes and didn't wear them in the rain or anywhere particularly damaging. After 4 months they look horrible.  Also, they were very unforgiving when new and were excruciating to walk in before breaking in. They cut and blistered the backs of my heels through thick socks.
