They are DURABLE. I got a super chewer puppy and after all the shoes and toys he has destroyed these shoes stood the test of time in puppy teething! No holes and he only hurts the corners of the sole.They are COMFORTABLE! You know that time period after first buying a shoes when your feet are killing you and you just have to “wear them in”? NOT THESE! From the first minute in these shoes my feet have never felt better. It’s like walking on a cloud! No pain in my feet at all from day one, and the more days I wear them the better my whole body feels. I swear, they are like orthopedic shoes.They are AFFORDABLE! Like, less than $50 cheap! Honestly, for these, I would gladly pay over $200. These are so cost effective that even though these old shoes have no problems other than the puppy chews on the front and back - I can stillafford a new perfect pair on a $900/month budget. Not to mention I can afford to do that over and over if this dog won’t learn to stop chewing my shoes!Lastly, they are AWESOME! Teens and you d adults, especially, have stopped me over and over to tell me my shoes are cool. (Truly they say words like “legit”, “tight”, “no cap bussin,” and other terms that I may not understand; but the sentiment behind them is clear. Once a group of teen guys walked by and one stopped to compliment the shoes. I followed with what I always follow with, which is “steel toe, super comfy, cheap and on Amazon!” This earned me the entire group of teens making a u-turn and doing double-takes. From a disbelieving voice I hear “STEEL TOE?” Lol YES STEEL TOE! After having 5 boys standing on my feet in awe of these foot-jewels, I knew I had to write this review. The cool-ness factor alone gets 5 stars from me, but all other reasons listed are 5 star reasons for me.Other notable reasons:They’re cool and warm all at the same time. In the winter, they feel like insulated stockings; even without socks; yet somehow during the summer the wind breaks in and cools your foot down nicely.I live on a concrete floor, work on concrete floors and stand on concrete floors for more than 15 hours every single day. If I’m not in bed, I’m on concrete. I will reiterate, since day one of these shoes, my feet have NEVER FELT BETTER!100% WOULD RECOMMEND! If you buy these shoes, you will not be disappointed. Amazon recommends a size 7 for me, but a 7.5 fits perfect! This is the size I usually get in the store from shoes like, sketchers, vans, DC’s, Nike, and Under Armour.
