I went into buying a pair of shoes with the mindset that I wanted Danskos (because that's what everyone told me to get). The sales lady talked me into getting these Alegria shoes in black. I loved them!! ...For the first day. They were so comfortable and surprised me by not slipping off my feet like I thought clogs/slip-ons would do. They were pricey, but I splurged on them. That being said, my feet now kill me. On my first day of wearing these at work (healthcare), I lasted maybe 2 hours. I feel like I'm walking on concrete! I contacted Alegria about this and they told me to return them to the store I purchased them from. However, that store will not allow me to return them because they have been worn. So no, I didn't buy these off Amazon. Nonetheless, be aware that the Alegria company will not stand by their product. I have never been so disappointed! In the store these cost me $130. And now I'm in almost tears daily because of how bad my feet hurt. I don't know if maybe I just got a defective pair? I just wish Alegria would make this right. Try these on before purchasing! And make sure you have a good knowledge of the return policy!
