text: I have never heard a bad thing about the quality of Jack Rogers’s sandals. I hear things like &#34;timeless!&#34; and &#34;I've had them for seven years.&#34; I have not, however, heard that these would break within a week, which is exactly what happened to me. I’ve spent ridiculous amounts of money on ridiculous things, like brand famous purses and over-priced watches, but I’ve never spent money on something as ridiculous as these shoes.<br /><br />I wanted a pair of sandals that I could wear in spring, summer, and occasionally in the fall. I wanted pair that was neutral but stylish, and I wanted something that would last me for at least two years. The Lauren sandal seemed like a perfect pick, but these shoes suck.<br />Don’t get me wrong they weren’t uncomfortable. By around day four, my shoes had exited the “break in” stage and were happily moving towards comfort. Sadly, the same time the shoes started to fit, they broke.<br /><br />Simple as that: they broke in four days. Therefore, they are a horrible excuse for a pair of one hundred and twenty seven dollar sandals. Luckily, I will be returning these shoes for a refund, as the shoes MUST be defective.<br /><br />I will be using my money on some shoes that are actually worth more than a hundred dollars. I thought maybe some Birkenstocks, or I could buy another pair of Chacos, which are actually well made sandals.<br /><br />Stray far away from the Lauren by Jack Rogers sandals, and get some shoes that don’t suck.
