Don't buy kuru, they do not stand behind the warranty or return policy. I bought a pair for $150 and wore them 4 days on the board walk in June and they gave me a blister on my heel because the right shoe, (heel) gave me a blister because it wasn't formed right with the stitches of and no padding. Asked for warranty they denied it for exchange of bad Craftsmanship with proof of picture and no wear on the shoe. The worst shoe I ever bought for that amount of money. If I could post pictures on here I would....oh wait I can to prove how they treat customers, that's ok I bought 4 other pairs of shoes else where since I couldn't wear kuru. Yes I buy a lot of shoes, I have currently about 45 pairs soon to be 44 after I burn my kuru online and explain why.
