First off, these are odd to get used to when first walking in them. After a day however, they're pretty great sneakers. Lightweight, breathable, and comfortable to walk in.

That said, the shoe started falling apart in just about 7 months. As stated by another reviewer, once a single tube goes, the shoe is trash. K-Swiss customer service is abysmal, they talk about how they stand 100% behind their products, while in the same sentence saying too tough luck.

If you're getting these as disposable shoes you don't care about, I guess they'd serve their purpose. But if you expect the shoe to last a year, you're going to be severely disappointed as I am. I, for one, don't want to buy multiple pairs of sneakers a year.
