Usually you get what you pay for, but in this case, I got even less. I didn't even mind the man-made materials on the upper. However, after only two days of wear the rubber on the tip inexplicably came off the front.
Considering I can buy a new pair of
Sketchers at the local outlet for under $50 and wear them for a year and a half, I'm glad I can return these defects to Zappos.
I just returned another pair of
canvas Columbias to the manufacturer because the upper started to separate from the soles. My bad for trying a second pair.
