These are breathable sneakers as pictured and have a nice insole to them. They aren't going to be as great as top brands but that's not what I expected when I bought them. These are made very well for the price, feel comfortable, and look nice to boot. I would recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable shoe who isn't concerned about what brand it happens to be because you can get a nice pair of sneakers for a lot less than what you typically pay.
