text: These things are quality. I've been wearing them all day, every day for a few months and now I know, they are built to last. The surface looks good, despite what I put them through. The soles have no damage and will last years.<br /><br />I had to send the first pair back, they were much too small. The second pair were snug. After a week of wear, they fit comfortably. I'm glad I persevered, but if I were you, I'd purchase a size bigger.
