JUNK!!! DO NOT BUY. I purchased a pair of these sandals…

Rating: rated 1 of 5 stars
Source: bought it new
Price Paid: $29.99

Summary

JUNK!!! DO NOT BUY.

Pros

  • NONE, except a reasonable price for a one-time pair of sandals

Cons

  • Where do I begin. Poorly constructed all the way around.

I purchased a pair of these sandals from Sports Authority and was hoping they'd get me through the summer. Not even close.

After three weeks of occasional wear, the sole has split, the heels have caved in, and a portion of the footbed has come unglued from the sole. I could see if I was grossly overweight, but I'm average weight for my height, and I've used them for walking — not running a marathon, so there's no reason they should have fallen apart prematurely.

My advice...save your money and spend them on a more reputable brand like Teva or Keen.
