text: The shoes did take my orthodic inserts well. But the shoes did not hold up well. The heel inside material broke doen and wore away and my heel was hitying the plastic pieces inside the back heel of the shoe. I can no longer wear these shoes noe. The outside still looks great though. These are not rainy day shoes either. Your socks will get wet as they breathe really well (vents in front by toe). They are summer time tennis shoes. They were ok comfortable wise but inside shoe matetial not the best.
