I've been wanting a pair of Visvim FBTs for a long time now, but who has the money? A friend recently recommended these as an affordable alternative. I am very happy I listened to my friend's suggestion. The shoes look and feel great. I couldn't ask for more.

So, I am wearing them now. Quite glad about that, actually. Kudos to the Gent who perfects double-layer 'soft-sole' mocs. They're perfect with the understanding that if one wears them all the time, their good for a year, maybe two. Mocs are designed for forest wear, not pavement or gravel, or even hardwood floors, so that in mind these are quality. For thinner feet, but like a SF Giant's center-field mitt, it'll be perfect after a few rounds...

I bought these shoes looking for something soft, flexible and lightweight. They are exactly that and I could not be happier from that perspective. But a more generous toe box would have made them perfect. It is said that they will eventually spread to adapt to the wearer's foot, but my toes feel cramped in the meantime. As they are designed, they will take a while before they are truly comfortable to wear.

If these were produced with a broader toe box, I would happily rate them 5 stars. Still, for the price, they are a good start.
