text: These shoes are super cute and comfortable! I'm a Nurse and can easily wear them for 10-12 hours a day while doing a whole lot of walking and my feet never hurt. What I liked the Best about them is that they are mostly &#34;mesh&#34; on top which makes for a lightweight shoe.<br />DONOT PURCHASE THEM because after you wear them for approx. 3-4 weeks the mesh rips on Both shoes in two places. A rip/hole will appear on shoe where your big toe begins and on the same place (next to little toe) on other side of shoe😞. I hoped maybe I had simply received a &#34;defective&#34; pair if shoes, so I called Amazon and they promptly sent me a new pair of the exact same shoe.(Just as I requested!) Wore them for a couple weeks, love them so much that when i saw they had the exact Ascic shoe with a &#34;melon color&#34; (the first ones i ordered were black, silver&pink) i HAD to have them too!!(our scrubs@work are black and MELON color) Got the 2nd pair of shoes and switched back and forth, wearing the black/pink pair one day..and wearing the melon colored ones the next day!<br />Was SO VERY DISAPPOINTED when the first hole/tear in the mesh on the black ones appeared. It starts on the big toe side of shoe, right where you 'bend your foot'....then a couple days later, i all of a sudden had FOUR RIPS in the mesh in the EXACT SAME PLACE ON BOTH shoes, as the pair i had first returned to Amazon. Stuck them in their original box and went on to wearing the melon colored shoes with Great Hopes of this NOT occuring on this (3rd) Pair!! Well in about 3 more weeks(that is wearing them 10hrs per day-5 days a week) the mesh starting tearing on the left shoe by my left little toe. Within 3 more wearings, they were ripped/torn IN THE EXACT SAME PLACES on both shoes, AS THE TWO black/pink pairs (one pair of which i returned and other pair that Amazon sent me as the 'Replacement Pair!!'<br />Gotta say that i am super picky about the buying athletic shoes. Ie: No thick rubber bottoms, no heavyness in the shoe, shape on toe has to be right and on and on and on!! So....Needless to say, i was crushed about these ASIC running shoes that turned out to be Defective. They are so very cute, stylish and comfy! Almost every day i wore them, someone at work would say &#34;Cute Shoes, where did you get them!?&#34;<br />To make such a long story short....the last two pairs were sent back to Amazon via UPS, last week and im waiting on my money (paid approx. eighty something for the black pair& approx.$100 for the gray/melon colored ones)to be refunded back to me. Amazon said that they will be doing &#34;an investigation&#34; in to this defect in their ASIC RUNNING SHOES! Hopefully they WILL FIND A WAY TO CORRECT THIS WITHOUT CHANGING THE STYLE/LOOK of these super cute shoes! Also would like to say that Amazon was very good about PROMPTLY REPLACING the first pair with a new pair, and im sure i will receive my money back on the 2nd two pairs (that were sent back) very soon.<br />Im just Sad cause athletic shoes are what i have to wear 5 days out of every 7 AND I LOVED THE LOOK AND COMFORT of those Asic's. But...the mesh just kept ripping on each new pair that i ordered.<br />Hoping that ASIC WILL FIGURE IT OUT AND FIX THIS DEFECT because I SURE WOULD ORDER THESE PARTICULAR SHOES IF I WAS ASSURED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS SOLVED!!
