I hate shoes--would rather be in flipflops or barefoot- But OMG...these are great! These are thee best pair of tennis shoe-type shoes I've ever worn. They are so comfortable and easy to slip on and off. Completely true to size and no painful wearing them in period. Comfy from out of the box. I love the dotted bottom tread design too-- helps in the snow -- and gives you spring to your step on normal flooring. I cannot even say how much these shoes have changed my life. My husband is so excited to see me with something other than flip flops in the snow!
