text: I am an adult with very small feet so I usually buy &#34;kids&#34; versions of men's styles which, while limited, are generally much cheaper than the men's sizes.  Compared to my last pair of Topsiders which lasted several years this pair is noticeably lighter and was extremely comfortable from the first time I put them on.  The finish is more of a brushed suede than the previous polished leather and I haven't had them long enough to judge regarding durability (there have been some negative reviews).  I give the shoes 4 stars only because I don't know yet regarding durability
