I do not know what I expected for $15, but it was not this. In my 40 something years, I have never had to look quite so long at a pair of shoes to determine which foot it was supposed to go on. If you look at the bottoms it is one way, if you look from the top, it was another. To top it off they were horribly uncomfortable and "odd" feeling on the foot. Who knows, maybe I had them on the wrong foot...These are going back.
