text: I owned an earlier version of this shoe, bought from an outlet store, but it seems this is only available online via Amazon or Skechers direct now.  These are more comfortable than the prior version, however the outer material doesn't seem to be of the same quality; seems a bit more styrofoam-like than faux-suede, but unless you're closely examining the shoe, it's a bit hard to tell.  The one problem this shoe has in common with the prior version is also that the insole/sock liner is glued into the shoe, so if you have orthotics, you'll have to tediously rip out the liner, which comes off in chunks, rather than one piece.  Still, it's a great slip-on shoe for quick entry/exits if you're frequently going out and don't want to be bothered with laces (if you don't wear shoes inside your home).  UPDATE:  I previously rated this as 4 stars, but have changed it to 2 stars.  The prior version of the shoe was more durable, lasted longer and held up better. This updated version seemed to start disintegrating after about five months of by no means heavy use, only to do errands/shopping.  The upper material is not of the same quality and began to look really rough.  The tread on the soles wore down to almost nothing.  It's a shame they didn't last as long as the prior version did, and the older ones were more heavily used.
