text: My teenage son had been looking for a pair of shoes like these, so we ordered the Rikios. We waited more than a month for them to arrive from Japan and when they finally got here we were pretty psyched. But our excitement was short lived. When my son opened the box he worried they wouldn't fit but they did and were a good comfortable fit after all. Myself, on the other hand; I was very disappointed.<br />The shoes are made of all synthetic materials and they are of VERY poor quality. In my opinion, these shoes won't last more than a couple of months. I'm even afraid they'll come apart after a couple of times wearing them.<br />If you're looking for a pair of shoes like these and are thinking about getting the Rikios; DON'T!<br />Look somewhere else.
