text: I was attracted to these shoes because they are extremely light and pretty comfortable. They're also kind of ugly. I bought the black ones, and they resemble those orthotic shoes old men wear. The rubber that the soles are made of has an especially cheap look to it. But I choose comfort and low price over looks.<br /><br />These shoes have poor durability. After 10 months, large parts of the inner fabric and cushioning wore away to reveal internal plastic parts that hurt my feet. The sole started out with poor traction, and quickly wore down to a nice and smooth slip hazard.
