text: I gave these shoes 2 stars because I don't hate them, I just don't like them and won't be buying them again. I bought these in September of 2014 and they were done for by April and May of 2015 and that includes the winter when I wasn't wearing them as much. I paid 40$ for them. It's hard to describe but the fabric on the foot bed started to come off the foot bed. Like I said, it's hard to describe but the quality is not very good. They look just awful now. I liked them for the first few months but they just didn't hold up like I wanted. I wear them now as yard/work shoes though I noticed the last time I wore them for more than 3 or 4 hours, my feet were hurting and I got ugly blisters on my little toes. I think I'm just going to throw them out and that's sad because I haven't even had them a year. Okay, I'm changing the review to one star. I replaced them with more expensive Keen's and i'm hoping these will last longer.
