text: These are so cute. Such a great alternative to flip flips (hate those). BUT ... the price says it all. They are cheap and the materials they are made of are cheap. So when you walk up the stairs, for example, and you accidentally catch the top of the shoe on a stair the brown material that the footbed is made off will tear off and expose pure white colored material under it. The brown material is some sort of fake leather and it's VERY thin. VERY. And it comes off very easily. So the shoe looks ruined when it comes off or tears. I have a marker that's roughly that tan color so I can color in the white parts that get exposed, but you can still tell that the shoe is damaged.<br /><br />But they are pretty comfortable, softer than I expected. I wear an 11M.
