I started buying these because I'm a broke university student and they were the cheapest option at Carryall that didn't look like clown shoes. First pair lasted 9 months of daily walking to campus, rain, snow, and the occasional spilled coffee. The sole separated a bit near the toe, but duct tape fixed it. Second pair I got in a different color (the dark one with the weird orange stripe) and they held up for 8 months before the insoles flattened. I replaced those with cheap foam insoles and they were fine. Third pair I'm wearing now, and I've learned: don't machine wash them because the mesh warps. Hand wash only. They're not perfect—the sizing varies between colors, which is annoying, and the laces fray quickly. But for someone on a strict budget who walks 8 miles a day, these are the best value I've found. I've spent maybe $180 total on three pairs, and I'd rather do that than buy one $100 pair that dies in six months. They're not stylish, but they're comfortable once broken in. I'll probably buy a fourth when these go.

I order size 10. They fit like 10.5. Too big. Color is lighter than picture. Says dark gray. It's light gray. I fix furniture. Need true color. Returned. Shoes okay maybe. Not for me.

The sneakers themselves are fine. Actually good. But the box arrived crushed and the tissue paper inside felt weirdly oily, like it had been in a car trunk. The shoes smell faintly of cardboard. I'm petty apparently, but that texture grossed me out. Product gets 5 stars, packaging gets 0. So 4 overall.
