I was initially really impressed with how comfortable these sneakers were right out of the box, so much so that I even got a pair for my mum, who needs extra support. However, after just one trip on a rock while walking, the fabric tore open, leaving a large hole through the top of the shoe. It's disappointing that a shoe that looks great and feels so comfortable can have such poor durability. Given the price, I expected much better quality. Unfortunately, these were not worth the investment.
