These shoes are probably worth about $20.00 to $30.00. I don't even typically write reviews of items but as I am shopping for a new pair of shoes in less than a year. I will write one and hopefully spare others the expense. These things are super cheap. Within a couple of weeks two of the metal eyelets had come out. Also the sole wears down very fast. They are not leather at all. After about six months of fairly regular wearing as my casual shoe with jeans and khakis (I'm usually pretty easy on shoes.), the fake whatever-it-is-but-definitely-not-leather material began to peel and flake at the toe of the shoe. These shoes look awesome, but that's where it ends. That being said, if these shoes were $20.00 and I was just going to wear them very occasionally, I would buy them again because they look so cool.
