Toes are well protected by a rubber bumper but without the toe-stubbing that one sometimes gets from these type of shoes. As a 6 ft adult male, I can only get 2 pairs of shoes per shelf and a pair of high top shoes or boots will not fit on the lower shelf! I had an issue with mine initially but the company did an amazing job troubleshooting the issue, I am thoroughly impressed and satisfied with this purchase, and would recommend these a lot! Ive been using my Beats earbuds while working from home so that I can block out household noise all day but my ears have started to hurt from wearing earbuds 8+ hours a day. ??? I know I wont be fooled into buying anymore over rated and priced flip flops ! Customer service was great! I liked the product , but disappointed on Amazon part for not disclosing the info that it was used or a returned item. The hinges did creak when I first got them, but after some use they seem to have stopped. My only complaint with these is they are all so over priced. Spero di essere stato utile
