text: These shoes squeak when you walk or run in them. They look nice but I don't wear them much because it's embarrassing to have my shoes make noises everytime I take a step. I thought that maybe it would improve upon wearing for a while. But no....still squeaks. I think these might have been fakes. I wish I had sent them back for a refund. I bought a new pair of new balance from an actual store recently and noticed a difference in quality right away. I think these were fakes.
