I purchased these shoes because I was sick of buying cheap ones with no support that lasted only a couple of months. I decided to splurge on these shoes in hopes they would last longer and provide better support than your run-of-the-mill flats. They do not provide much arch support. After less than 2 months (delivered on 7/17/19, they busted (on 9/6/19). The rubber sole of the heel popped off, and the rubber supports within the heel are all worn down and literally falling apart. The other shoe looks like it will bust soon too. Very disappointed in the 7 weeks of wear for this price. I'm sending them back and will not purchase again.
