These shoes are great! They are comfy and classy. The only problems I had with them are 1) the portion around the toe and heel is about an 1/8 inch of gooish clear rubber which isn't accurately portrayed in the picture and 2) they fit just a tiny bit smaller than my North Face hiking boots so if you can't decide on a size, go big.. or go home.
Comfy Kick around shoes with some cool!
