My favorite thing about these shoes is how they look. They are colorful and bright. I read the wonderful reviews and had high hopes but they are not my favorite sneaker. I threw them in the back of the closet. My problem with them is probably because I usually wear minimal shoes. These are definitely not minimalistic at all. I was looking for something to work out with but these are going to be more of wear occasionally but definitely not to work out. I know other people loves these and I really wish I could agree.
