I’m a big walker—I don’t own a car—so I put in plenty of steps each day. For my everyday excursions, these hybrid kicks have put a noticeable pep in my step. Their comfort was clear from the first moment I put them on, and they’ve never chafed or caused me any blisters. Considering I usually wear them barefoot, that’s saying something. Although I haven’t tested them in sweltering summer temps, they’ve kept my feet cool and dry through the unpredictable fall and spring seasons. As a bonus, they’re machine-washable, so you can keep them fresh, even in lighter hues.
Now, I wouldn’t recommend the Walker Pro Mary Janes for high-energy activities. They’ve worked fine for the occasional sprint to catch the bus, but I wouldn’t choose them for running or cardio sessions. But if you’re seeking a shoe that’s as cute as it is practical for time spent on your feet (a walking tour on vacation included), I highly recommend them. Vivaia, you did it again.
