I have bought the same shoe 6 times. I can wipe them off after working in the bakery with a clorox wipe and they are always like new and also are sanitized!!! I am nearly 60 and for the last 7 years I have been very safe from slipping on something while I work because the slip resistant bottoms are VERY EFFICIENT!!!! They are the MOST COMFORTABLE shoe I have ever owned and i can easily wear my orthotics in them. I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!
