are worn out, they also include $18. of Shoe-Goo on them....
It's strange, I went through about three pairs of those china-mart TredSafe shoes before local stores stopped carrying them and I never had the glue problems reported by those who reviewed them. I didn't find out about the glue problems until I went looking online for a replacement pair. Their bottom-tier "brands" that come without boxes are even worse, cracking where they flex the most after about three months. Right now I'm putting safeTstep shoes from Payless to the test, we'll see how well those hold up.
