I bought a pair back in 2019 and loved my pair so much I bought a second, the black upon their release. Since then the quality of materials, build, and presentation has fallen.

The shoes arrived stained by the blue box, the insole is unusable due to how sticky it is, the side panel is already separating from the sole, and the laces are notably thinner and cheaper (I've compared them to my other two pairs).

I love these shoes. The color is very versatile, and the shoes are comfortable. The only negative thing I would say is the same thing I would say about other Thousand Fell shoes: their insoles are not the best. They do not stay in place. At the end of the day, it's hard to take your feet out of the shoes without the insoles coming out with your feet. And my feet aren't particularly sweaty (I wear socks). It's an easy fix with an aftermarket insole, though.

Recommend wearing wool socks as these shoes trap heat, but I absolutely love them. hyper comfortable and easy to clean every day with just a paper towel. They can be a bit squeaky at the beginning, but I've never had as cushiony flat shoes.

Simple, minimalist, yet aesthetically pleasing.
