One of the most comfortable pair of warm weather shoes I own, hands down. I have had then over a year now, and the soles do not look the least bit worn. Not to mention the entire shoe. They still look like the day i bought them. Easily cleaned as they repel stains and wipe clean of mud, etc.. They can be worn like a regular shoe, as depicted in the picture, or as a slip on as the heel collapses. And no need to tie these shoes. Laces are laced into the shoe itself. Great for the lazy man on vacation! In my opinion, they are worth every penny.
