The soles of this model in particular are nice and thick, dense and provide great support for being on your feet all day. I am a former loyal Nike user. Also the shoes were too wide for my child?s feet. Slippers are well made, very soft, warm and comfortable. I ordered white and received black, but opted to keep them instead of sending them back. But the cable is quite nice. It charges so much faster than the included Apple 5W charged. Description is totally deceptive! Easy to attach and detach. At close to $100 I definitely expected better.
