Several travelers called it the “perfect travel shoe” after bringing it on their trips. The sneaker was found to hold its shape “after hours and hours of walking and being smashed into [their] suitcase.” Furthermore, they are also good for long walks, with a first-time wearer using them on vacation and walking 12 miles a day with no blisters or sores requiring absolutely no break-in time!

Testers found the sole “way too slippery on the floor”, with “only a little rubber patch in the front” and the rest of the shoe having little grip.
Doesn’t have a lot of arch uso
A few reviewers were disappointed with how little the arch uso was on the sneaker. One mentioned that it “doesn't hit [their] arch right unlike other styles.”
