I loved these shoes they were super comfortable and I wore them often, then about a week ago the metal loop that the strip goes into snapped in half, then today the other shoe did it.  I guess I will be heading to the store to find something to fix these with besides a paperclip.<br /><br />I have the similar style in black in Viva and no issues with those, I just hate to buy another pair and have the same issue as there is plenty of life in these shoes.
