I dont know what kayla was thinking...these are for everyday wear. yes the "sole of the shoe" comes off after extended wear..but its just the plaid fabric on top of the actual sole..it was just for looks Its more cumfy w/o it. I dont have these exact ones but am hoping to get them becuase they are exactly like the old colour version I have. These are cheap and very cumfy. So dont be stupid and super glue the fabric back inside...Just cut it out and wear them with socks. I always wear them with my long socks anyway. These are great shoes, very cumfy, and very good for any weather[we had ice on teh ground a while back and I wore these and it was amazing how well they grip] So dont believe all reviews...especially ones where someone tried to super glue inside a shoe XD
