Unfortunately these leather Sanuks are very uncomfortable. I have several other pairs of Sanuk shoes that are so easy to slip on and are so comfortable to wear. These leather Sanuks are simply terrible; the leather is very hard and it was difficult to get my feet into them. Once they were on I knew that there were foot blisters ready to happen. The leather felt like it would never soften nor stretch with wear and I wasn't willing to deal with any breaking in period. Amazon as always handled my return promptly and professionally. Here's hoping that Sanuk does a redo with their leather shoe-I was looking forward to replacing my Topsiders.
