These are bad. Pretty much the only thing going for them is that they're vegan, and sorta barely cute + available EU 45/women's 12.5. But there's no quality control, the inner sole wasn't completely stitched into the inside of the left shoe, seems like they cut the part much too small and just sent it through anyway? There's literally a half inch wide hole underneath the foot spanning the whole length of the toebox in that shoe that they just tried to cover over with the removable insert. Both shoes squeak, creak, click, and pop while walking nearly right out of the box. Super embarrassing. There are several long loose threads, and a couple ragged edges in the internal stitching. Returning, probably never going to buy the brand ever again
