I am happy with these shoes. They don't have as much arch support as I would like but they are still very comfotable. I bought these shoes to wear at work because I do a lot of walking and standing during the day. I'm used to wearing shoes like Van's or Converse so this was a bit of a change in the way I walk because the bottom surface is a bit bulkier than I'm used to but they hug my feet really good which is what I was looking for. They seem to be pretty durable too as far as the outer layer. I use these shoes while I'm doing work around my house and yard. The stitching and outer netting hasn't torn or even looks that worn so I think they are well made. I would highly consider this particular brand when I'm looking for another pair of athletic shoes again.
