'24 Hours' shoes?

I tried a search on this but '24' was removed from the search making it rather useless.

I tried a pair of these on and they were quite comfortable in the short time I had them on. They were supposed to be durable and be 'just like walking barefoot'. It's an idea I like, but I'm wondering if anyone else has any experience with them.

In Puma's case, I'm sure 96 hours refers to how long it takes for their child labour to expire.

That's what I started this thread asking about.

But they are made in Spain which has labour laws prohibitng child labour, so that's a plus.

I bought a pair, I haven't worn them extensively yet, but they are quite comfortable for walking. The sole is anti slip, and they felt a little loose at first but they don't move around or give blisters. They claim they fit like a glove and so far that seems to be holding up.

Ingledews. They're a chain in BC, I don't think they have any stores elsewhere, and it's impossible to find any infomation on them on the internet.

After a couple days wearing them straight I'm feeling some foot pain. Definitely not going to be my main walking shoe, but they're more dressy than my wrestling shoes so they're still comfortable for times when I'll need to be on my feet for a long time when the wrestling shoes would be inapropriate. A little disappointing.
