They're a pretty good looking shoe, however they look awkward on my wide feet. The one piece tongue really has to stretch wide and ruins the proportions of the shoe. I've had the shoes now a little under a year and they look like a mess. The mesh on the toe is impossible to keep clean. Even worse is the plastic on the toe. Once it's scuffed, it won't come off. I've used everything from mild dish soaps to abrasive chemical cleaners; nothing works. For those of us that like to slide on our shoes (come on you know you do!) they heel will quickly be destroyed. They were kind of comfortable at first. Now after two hours my feet get sore. After a 10+ hour day on my feet, my feet were sore 2 hours in and even the next morning. I wore my equally as old Timberland boots the following day and had no pain. These things are headed for the trash as soon as I find a good deal.
