I got these shoes because I am constantly taking my shoes on and off many times a day. These shoes are very comfortable and easy to get on and off. They have very soft uppers which gives me some concern about how long they will last. I was ready to immediately order an additional pair because I liked them so much and the price was right but I want to wait awhile to see how they hold up.  If I am going to do a lot of walking or or go hiking I would recommend a different type of shoe with more support.
