The hard sole makes these shoes a winner as they create the perfect union of comfort with slidability as I grandma shuffle my feet down the isles. Bought the white one for my bike and the black one for my husbands, and they look as it they were made specifically for them. Final Update. May have to order other colors for these! I almost broke a nail doing so. This is not a product issue. The run time is excellent This earbud has an awesome sound, excellent bass, and the ability to actually charge the right while listening to the Left, and visa versa which is a huge plus. 5 4E which feels just a hair tighter than my other sketchers in the same size but these are laceless so maybe thats why. 9/24/19I purchased these copper spice racks in hopes they would make good book shelves in a small closet in a nursery, but was hesitant as there were no reviews.
