This was the 2nd pair of these I bought after wearing the first for a few months. I'm writing this much later because the 2nd pair has now revealed the same defect that the first did. Namely a loose sole. The sole on one shoe of the pair peeled back to the arch. This is easily fixed by gluing but not what I expected after reading the reviews and searching online for the brand and learning that this company had invented many features now common in sport shoes. Oh, well!

They ARE comfortable and fit me as well as other, more expensive shoes of the same size and are much easier to don with my old, stiff back.
