I bought these for an upcoming trip to Europe where I anticipated walking around alot but didn't want to wear typical work-out-type sneakers.  So it does LOOK cool. I love the look but the insole that came with it pushes up on my arches too much that at the end of the day my feet don't feel great. I'm in between a normal to flat foot.  I tried to replace the insole with another one BUT since they were designed with their insole that has HIGHER heel padding, my personal insole suddenly had my heel too low and so the canvas heel part started rubbing weirdly on my heel in a painful way.  So in short, i love the look, but for my type of feet, will have to play around and spend some more money to find correct insole replacement.  I'll probaby NOT take it with me to europe.
