Believe it or not, They were just not quite wide enough, and I wore through the bottom below my big toe in like 4 months. They also made my heels hurt, But I fit them painfully tight. You know, entertaining to watch me put them on tight. But yeah, you guys are getting me. Hard tuff and bouldery kind of footwork. Hmmm...come to think of it that's how I wore out my Mocasyms...
