I love the shoe, but the construction is complete crap. Since June 26th I have been through three pairs of these shoes. They rip out from the sides of the straps. The first / last approximately 3 weeks the second pair lasted less than a week the third pair left in roughly 3 weeks barely broken in, I bought a similar pair of shoes at Sears last year not even name brand just Sears brand and they lasted for well over a year. Very disappointed in the quality and longevity of this product.
