The shoes are very convenient and comfortable to wear without pressure points. Since they are working very wide, would I do not wear them to drive a car because there is a danger that one occurs 2 pedals simultaneously. My Shoes are "made in Italy" and have from the outset no unpleasant odor gehabt.Ich have the shoes in a Crocs Store seen with "made in China". These have not smelled to rubber or plastic. If the Production conditions in Italy and China be the same, and I presume, it is incomprehensible to me, why the shoes from China should have an unpleasant smell (how to read in some reviews is) .I would always despite the higher price to take the original and not a cheap product that contains any harmful substances through the skin into the body. Six months ago, such a cheap shoe was again taken off the shelves due to proven health hazards of a discounter. Buying I have no regrets and would buy the shoe at any time. Inge Bert
