So... I was going to give these shoes 5 stars, however, after about 4 or 5 wears for a 12hr period, in which I'm sitting for at least half the time, they started to fall apart. The base of the shoes are fine but if you look in the photos below, you will see that the designers are starting to become unglued. I really loved these shoes and tempted to buy another pair for the style and comfort hence the 3 stars. But I don't want this to happen again. I don't like how worn the soles are either.
