This shoes are really comfy though not fancy. So the problem is my daughter wants to wear these to the fancy meeting as well :(. Other than that there seems to be no problem or issue at all. My daughter wore this to schoo, for a walk. for a travel to Cambodia. These work well wherever ther are. She like fancy princessy things but comfy becam one of her fancy as she grows up. All her fancy shoes are getting grown out of in shoe rack. I am looking for new springy shoes for her now, ofcourse in Teva.
