    LOVE These Shoes!! They are in in perfect condition and are exactly as pictured. Fast Shipping... I could have saved seller some money as I dispose of original shoe boxes and the package came in a larger box with padding as if the shoes were fragile... I dispose of original boxes, but even that showed minimal wear. You can tell this seller really takes care of their items and exceeds in effort to safeguard against any shipping damage. Great Value, Great Product, Smooth Transaction!
