text: These shoes were cute, however the padding was lacking. The straps across the top were uncomfortable at first but it did wear off. However, my first time wearing them to a zumba class I ended up getting charlie horses in both legs, which has never happened before.  When I took them off the straps had clearly left an imprint on my foot. It's possible that although the discomfort passed the lack of padding and limited circulation contributed to that, but I wasn't going to wear them again to find out so back they went.
