I purchased these shoes for my 13-year-old son. He wore them for about a month before the toggle on one of the shoes broke, and shortly after the material started to come apart from the sole. He's not a particularly active person; the shoes were used solely for walking. I contacted the seller before writing this review and told them about my issues. They responded promptly enough, but then proceeded to haggle with me about a refund. They first offered me half the purchase price. I responded saying that I didn't think that was fair for a $50 pair of shoes that barely lasted a month, and that I would like a full refund. They finally ended up refunding me the entire purchase price. So, buyer beware..

About the product:

My son says these shoes were very comfortable and soft, and had a good cushion for walking. He was a little apprehensive about the toggle from the beginning, thinking he would break it, and he was right. The materials used are light, so they may be appropriate for someone in a warm climate who is historically easy on their shoes. For people who are rough on shoes, I wouldn't recommend these.
