My son is so rough on shoes. He's 13 years old and wears a mens 10. I'm constantly on Amazon searching for shoes that are very low priced to keep on hand for him. The expensive brands don't last than a few more months these days so I just buy the cheapest priced ones on here that I can find. I think I snagged these for $10!! He says they are comfy. Two months in and they are still wearable. No tears or holes. And they actually don't stink as bad as many of the others do.
