This is a very comfortable shoe.  From the moment I took it out of the box, the shoe was very comfortable.  I have worn the show on at least three occasions and have had no problems with it.  Others have commented that the finish rubbed off with their shoe, but so far I have not had that problem.  But, I paid less than $30 for the shoe, so if the finish wears off, I am not out of a lot of money.
