text: Okay, these are super ugly, think something you'd wear with socks on the jersey shore.  But, they are very functional.  Plus, my neighbor who is the star of a late night talk show, wears these when he goes to the market.  That's where I got the idea.  I watch him sometimes from my window (dude is way famous) and he is seriously rocking these kicks.  So I bought a pair but they are not really doing it for me, but who knows, maybe they are and I just don't know it.  But they are functional for sure.
