Purchased them from a secondhand store while on a trip out of state for a few dollars cheaper. Loved them, but they only lasted 2 or 3 months since I bent them doing stretches. Both front soles' rubber cracked in half. I still walked in them until they completely seperated from their base soles that connected the rubber parts a week or two later. Possibly could have been fixed with glue. Good for fashion and good for walking as long as you purchase your true size. I purchased between a 1/2 to 1 size smaller than normal, since that's all that I had and I was in need of something to match my outfit.
