I'm SO DISAPPOINTED in Naturalizer for false advertising these as real leather. I have been wearing the Scout II and expected these to have the same quality. These are NOT leather, they are PVC or some kind of plastic substitute upper. They don't move and stretch the way soft leather does, so they've caused me all kinds of painful blisters in a few places, both on top and at the back. And unlike leather, these won't ever get more comfortable, stretching, molding to the foot. I promise.<br />I really wanted these to work- they are cute and have a good foot bed with decent support- a perfect combination for me. So believe me, I'd be willing to stick it out if the upper straps were going to wear in and get comfy someday.<br />BUT I CAN'T WEAR THEM at all anymore and I can't send them back because I wore them outside before finding they'd ruined my feet.<br />SO DISAPPOINTED!!
