I bought these because I have a pair of Teva Mush flip-flops that I wear whenever I can in the summer and I wanted something similar for when it is a bit cooler. These slip-ons are extremely light weight and super comfortable and now I wear these in the winter whenever I can get away with it and it is not raining.

As at least one other reviewer has mentioned, it is a bit more like a slipper than a shoe. I personally would not wear it to work (I work in an office that is fairly casual but not quite that casual) or out to dinner at a nice restaurant. On the other hand, I don't think they look ridiculous either. I happily wear them to walk the dog or run errands or even to a casual restaurant.

The uppers are made from a thin canvas so they are not waterproof and  I did not expect them to be. I don't wear them out when it's raining but I don't wear regular running shoes in the rain either. Any shoe with a fabric upper and no additional waterproof lining (e.g. Gore-Tex) will not be waterproof.

Some other reviewers have commented that the shoes are flimsy and do not appear as though they will last. However, these are extremely lightweight and inexpensive casual shoes so there is bound to be some compromise. I do not expect they will last the way a really good pair of leather shoes will but then these are much more comfortable and less expensive. I would tend to compare these with a pair of flip-flops or something similar which i would not expect to last more than a season or two of heavy use.

I noticed someone else say that the tread was not very good but the tread seems perfectly adequate to me. It has the sole of a flip-flop sole so it is definitely not a hiking shoe. However, they seem perfectly fine for walking on wet or dry pavement or any interior floors.
