I love these shoes! I bought my first pair last summer in black and I basically wore it until it fell apart. It has holes on it and some areas of the soles are just totally worn out but I still wear it sometimes because it's really comfortable. I wear it to school and at work ( I work at a restaurant so I am always on my feet, pacing around). I think it held up pretty well, and thinking that a pair is donated to the needy, I thought it's nice to buy more which I did. I bought two more pairs, one in white and another one in olive green but they didn't fit as well as the first pair I had even though I bought the same size. It was a little lose, so the shoe comes off when I walk. I bought an insole and it helped a little bit on the olive green pair but the white ones I had to return which is too bad. So, I guess just be a little careful with their sizing because reading the reviews on here and on the Toms website, it seems like there are some inconsistencies with it. Also, when you wear these shoes everyday, make sure to wash it. I wash my pair with the dark clothes and I never had a problem with the dye running. It made the shoes look cooler because it has this worn out look now. Never put it in the dryer; just put it by the windowsill and keep your feet clean because these shoes, even though very breathable can stink up your feet if you're not going to take care of it.

Just like others, I also think these shoes are a little overpriced and there are a bunch of similar styles now for half the price. I just try to keep in mind that the company is doing goodwill by donating a pair to those in need. These shoes are still my favorite for walking around downtown and to wear at work.
