My first impression was that these shoes looked really good and were good quality.  After wearing them for a few days though my opinion on the quality changed a bit.  The shoes fit but loosely (I'm size 7) and my feet moved a bit in them.  Definitely wouldn't want to wear these over rough ground because I would fear for my ankles.  If you want some nice, cheap espadrilles for light walking then these are great shoes for you.  if you have to chase little kids around a lot then these aren't the shoes to do them in.  My Toms espadrille wedges are much more sturdy for that activity.
