These are nice looking shoes that  didn't work for my feet.  They do seem reasonably well built.  If I had kept them, I wouldn't expect the sole to break or the insole to come loose anytime soon.  The two-tone brown color scheme is rich and pretty.

On the assumption that plenty of folks have feet similar to mine, here are the reasons I returned them:

1.  My second toe is a bit longer than the first, so I prefer shoes that are round across the front.  I expected a good fit from the photos on this product listing, but no such luck -- these things are designed for people with long big toes.  I had a large expanse of sole sticking out in front of my big toes.  Not attractive.

2.  My feet are tall at the arch and wide across the toes.  My little toes are rather small.  These shoes did a poor job of corralling my little toes -- I was sure one of my defenseless little toes would end up sticking out the side of the shoe sooner than later, and that it would feel at least as bad as it looked.  Also, I suspected the straps would chafe across the tops.  The chafing might or might not go away when they are broken in.

3.  A couple of other reviewers had given me the impression these were comfy and well padded.  They're flexible and it's not too hard to imagine they are comfortable for incidental wear.  However, they're not padded and I can't imagine walking around the block in them.
