Claire Rhinestone Embellished Sneaker

Was excited to get the color shell neoprene which is like a rose gold beautiful color. At first after trying on felt a little tight size 8M but after adjusting the ribbon ties loose I g them the shoes were more comfortable and after walking in them found them to be true to size and easy to get on and off. If I had ordered 1/2 size larger would be slipping off and wearing them often would have stretched even more. Looking forward to wearing them out soon.

These sneakers are glitzy enough but I have to wonder about their durability. I purchased the white pair and the eyestay reinforcement (the part where you thread the shoe lace) is made of satin, like the shoe laces. This makes me concerned about durability. Satin is not a very sturdy fabric. I immediately changed the laces to regular laces because the satin laces did not hold a tie and when I double knotted them, I couldn't undo the knots. Not a wise choice for laces. Lastly, these sneakers are heavier than I expected but I didn't wear them for hours on end so I can't say whether their weight caused increased fatigue.
