    They’re not better than Crocs :/

    Kind of disappointed bc I was expecting these to be on par with Crocs’ level of comfort but the inside straps of the shoes cut into my skin on the top parts, like there’s a serration on the straps that should be smooth. I can legit wear these type of heels in the Crocs version while cleaning trash on the side of the road. I couldn’t even walk through Legoland for three hours with my fam in these without getting blisters.

    The top strap just isn’t comfortable. Even if I wasn’t walking miles or was wearing the shoes for a couple of hours, the top strap that sits across the pinkie toe shredded my toe and inside of my foot.

    The bottom design also made me feel wiggly when I walked on it the first few times. Like, I have to consciously think about how I’m stepping for fear of the shoes being unlevel and me twisting my ankle.

    They’re cute, but not comfortable for more than an hour or so the wear imo.
