If you plan on being on your feet for extended periods of time, these are a great choice.
This style does not come in half sizes, so we recommend rounding up to your nearest whole size.
Looks can be deceiving, especially since these look like a pair of laced sneakers but are actuallyslip-on sneakers.
Theyre easy to slip on and feel comfortable right away, with no need for a break-in period.

The breathable fabric keeps feet cool, and they have great arch support with built-in grooves in the insole.
The style is also versatile enough for both office and casual wear.

Our ongoing plan includes further testing over six months to track each pair of sneakers long-term performance and durability.
