I cant begin to express how disappointed I am in these shoes. I had Birks back in college and they broke down fairly easily and smelled weird. It workscfkne . Im very gentle with my earbuds. This causes my foot to walk on the side of the shoe. Lovely comfortable sandals for every use. The only downside is I think it?s lacking a support strap around the ankle. Love this assortment for bracelets strung with occasional spacers. One of the best, and most unexpected bonuses, was that the pockets are actually functional! If I want to be really critical, the only thing is the black safety covers on the outlets have started to come off which causes the dust to build up in the sockets.
