I've only had these a few days but I like them a lot! Mine came in good condition, fit as I would expect them to. The other review that have mentioned hard ends to the lace tethers being inside the shoe and uncomfortable on the foot is true, mine are like that as well. I like them enough that I am going to try to find a way to minimize the discomfort of the tethers on the top of my feet. They are very comfortable to wear other than that. The soles are nice and cushioned to walk on. And I love that they do not look like water shoes. I wanted something I could get wet, but I also wanted a light summer shoe I could wear instead of sandals, to work, walking, etc. These fit the bill! I am actually wearing them with socks today and they look just like a normal athletic shoe. It would be nice if the company would combat the discomfort of the hard ends of the lace tethers being uncomfortable on the foot though, then they would be 5 starts all the way.
