I liked these on sight at a local store.  The shoe drew my attention because of the shape and gray color,  but when I tried them on I was disappointed.  They didn't have enough cushioning and when I walked around on the carpet, they weren't comfortable. Then I took them off and looked at the finish more closely and saw little cracks. The color was sort of flaking off. I figure that had to be from being tried on so often and then put back on the shelf.  I have had this issue with Aerosoles over the past couple of years. They used to be comfortable on my foot, but no longer.  I won't be looking at the brand again.  Too bad.
