Great shoe! If you're looking for an ultra-comfy slip on, this is it. No socks required. I am a fan of minimalist slip-on's. I also practice Tai Chi and actually use these for that purpose too. No arch support and very flat - so it may not be ideal if you pronate or are very flat-footed.

Very lightweight and comfortable. The insole doesn't have a lot of padding but enough to be comfortable while strolling. Toe box is a little narrow. Had to size half down for a snug fit, otherwise there was a lot of gapping at the back.
Brands I'd also recommend: Skechers Bobs, Keds, Toms

Love the shoes! They are super minimalist and fun to wear around. They don't have much padding but I added a $2 foam insole and now they are pretty comfy even for days when I walk a lot. I ordered a size down from my usual size because otherwise my heel kept lifting out of the shoe. A size down was a perfect fit.

I've had these shoes for 2 or 3 months, and I love'em. They're a great shoe for when you're running late and need something to slip on since you do not need socks. These shoes are also o.k. for wearing for long periods of time. Trust me, I go to school 4 days a week and wear them a bunch.

For the price, these are awesome shoes. With the latest in fashion trends being minimalistic, these shoes are perfect. As far as support goes, these shoes, as you can tell, aren't built for all around activity use. All in all the shoes are excellent and, with the economy, the price is very good to those looking to save cash but not sacrifice style.

The Shaolin is nothing new in regards to style. Imitating the Kung Fu style shoes you can get at your local swap meet or Asian market store, this shoe is an OK alternative to the better known minimalist shoes by Womans. Fit is true to size, a little narrow towards toes, no support or good cushioning and upper is a thin one later canvas material. For anything over this price USD you are just paying for the name. I bought 2 pairs of different colors on eBay for less a piece. Great shoe for lounging but be prepared for sore feet after hours of walking in.
