I have these in my shopping cart right now, what do you guys think?  Should I get some?  All?  None?


$17


(these look quite high-end IMO, though I haven't seen them IRL to confirm.  Can picture w/ a pair of bermudas this summer...)


$13


(the SM knockoffs we've talked about before)


$12


(thought these looked pretty walkable and decently cute)

i like the first and second, my only concern (i sound like my mom) is that the first would get pretty dirty pretty quick.  it's a great price so that wouldn't stop me...

i really like the 2nd pair. the first i'm not too fond of, but i don't really care for white shoes, so my opinion doesn't really count. the third i'm so/so on. they don't leap out at me, but i think if i saw them on someone, i'd really like them.

They also come in Brown, but I'm still drawn to the white ... maybe because the shoe itself is pretty heavy, and the white lightens it a bit whereas the brown makes it look even heavier?

I really like #1 and #2.  As for #3, they're nice, but I'm not in love with them.  For some reason they don't seem that "special" to me.

Love #2... would have to see #1 IRL. I feel like they might look cheap in person.

I saw #2 IRL. I tried them on and they were really painful. They cut into my feet in the front part, very stiff material. I didn't see #1 or #3. I would suggest going there in person if you can for the comfort factor.

Thanks for the tip Rocky .  Lord knows I have serious comfort factors w/most shoes, so I think I will go try on first.

I agree.  I'm guessing that for $17 they're probably plastic and white plastic can look really cheap.  I do really love #2 and #3 is cute too.
