The shoe is well constructed but the soles have lost most of their comfy/ cushy feel in about 5 days of wear (I work from home and the are on my feet most of the day). The elastic cord used to lace them has little to no additional length to accommodate a change in tension, except to get tighter. The metal cylinders that act as a stop to cords are not easy to work with, and jut out horizontally from the shoe which adds a bizarre profile. I don’t the comfort or sole quality justify the price. Seems like there a 50% “brand” cost added to the actual value. I would not purchase another pair.
