I have worn these shoes in one guise or another for some years now. They are quite simply the best. Although they feel quite heavy in the hand, on the feet where they belong, they are less noticeable than slippers. Only down side is that the ( "Control" style) are not easy to get any longer, big shame. Perhaps Schuh can help here. Great shoes well sold, thanks Schuh. Best regards, L. Sims.
