I ordered another style of shoe and it was out of stock and it is still not in stock so I settled for this shoe. Sometimes things happen for a reason. I love this shoe. I wear an orthotic insole in all my shoes and this shoe easily accommodates the orthotic and the shoe is stylish. It looks great with jeans and it has a solid feel so I can use it for short hikes or long walks. Because I spend a lot of time outdoors and in casual wear, this shoe is a good choice.

Bought these for my daughter and my son for Christmas. Both pairs have already started to wear out quite a bit. The rubber has separated from the canvas on both pairs right at the ball of their foot.

Love these shoes! Super simple, bright, and fun! Only downside is the white rubber around the bottom gets scuffed pretty quickly but it's easily manageable with some spray cleaner. They're also not the warmest shoes but that's expected due to the materials.

My daughter didn't break in the shoes before wearing them new into Disneyland for two days! She was okay on day one, but on day two, she was hurting, but she liked the shoes! I also ordered another pair, in black, for my other daughter. She's been wearing her black shoes everyday since she received them! BTW we ordered them and got them one day later! Must be a California thang.
