text: Nice looking shoe, got a good deal (seems they're on sale or clearance).<br /><br />Does not seem to be assembly with a high degree of quality.  Insole had bumps/waves and at first it was just some break in, but after a few wears when I took my foot out once the insole almost came out completely (only held on by heel), then a small triangle piece of plastic fell out. Together with some break in solved the bumpy issue, but it still seems like the insole's fabric cover isn't really attached and the entire insole seems like it will fall out or tear apart in the coming months.<br /><br />Decently comfortable through a work day, but not something I'd want to wear 12-16 hours.  Practically no arch support, stiff and flat insole. I didn't expect it since it's more of a &#34;fashion sneaker&#34; than a running or tennis shoe, so not terribly disappointed, but I do have some other brand &#34;fashion&#34; sneakers that are more comfortable.  These are fine for an office work day.<br /><br />If I had paid much more than the ~$30 I'd probably return them.  I'll be skipping Madden in the future and sticking with Kenneth Cole or others.
