this is really a pretty shoe... wish the quality was as nice as the appearance... 1st - there is no arch support... feels like you are walking bare foot. 2nd - the picture makes the shoe looks like it has a good sole..... this is more like a foam based sole and the shoe bends completely in half... this does not provide for good foot support. 3rd... this shoe is very loud when you walk.... and slippery... the best way i can describe it is to compare it to walking on sand that has been poured on tile. so very slippery and you get that loud sound.... don't know how to describe it better...4th - i can feel every pebble i step on.....i just can't do these shoes
