Shoes For Crews Saloon II, Women's Slip Resistant Work Shoes, Water Resistant, Black

Prior to these I had Sk*****s slip resistant and they lasted about four months before the sole cracked and the uppers separated. I've had this pair of SfC for a year and the outside is still like new (ish)! Now, I only wear them for work, and they only go outside from apartment to car, to store after work, etc. I drag my feet when I walk and the hell tread is still perfectly intact. I've doused my feet in hot and cold liquids, sticky sauces, etc, and the uppers are still great. I had plantar fasciitis for nearly two years, and had Just stopped wearing my Rx inserts when I got these. I haven't had to wear them since. (I'm not saying this show Helped it, because it had already healed —after two Years, but wearing them without the inserts didn't cause the PF to return.) For care I clean them every day with baby wipes. I haven't noticed any deleterious effect to the uppers after a year. I suspect that the folks who've said they break down easily and quickly are perhaps not caring for them. Now, the one downside, and it's kind of a weird one: they are Less slip resistant on our new “non slip” floor. I accidentally wore my regular sneakers (N**e skate) and slid all over the place, even on the “no slip” floor, so I know the SfC are doing their job. I just think it's weird. I still recommend them to people all the time. I recommend these to people all the time.
