The look of the shoes is definitely their best quality. The comfort of the shoe, however, is taking me some getting used to. Walking in them feels okay, but they are rigid, stiff, and unforgiving when first putting them on. I also have a huge blister on my heel from using them the first long walk. This is very uncommon in my experience, and I had hoped for a more feathery comfort in their fit. If I had known the feel of them before buying them I would not have chosen these shoes. But now that I have them, I'm going to give them more time to break in and hope that that is all it takes.
