text: This gets one star as this made in China junk broke, and I do mean broke, while I was in a large shopping mall. They were seldom used as summer had just started. The next thing I know, one shoe is hanging by the ANKLE strap, as leather had snapped in half, and I mean the strap that fits across your foot, about two inches shy of the buckle. I had come in to spend a gift certificate and had no other money with me that day. Had to use it to buy a pair of slide on shoes that were torture on my neuropathic feet in order to leave the store and navigate the Huge asphalt parking lot in June! So they broke after a few uses, and cost me 50 dollars extra as a result.  These use to be an American Classic shoe, made here by real craftspeople from real and sturdy materials. They are now part of our ugly consumer culture that provides us with junky products made across the world by poor people at bare subsistence wages.  May God forgive us all.
