Super-Star Low Top Sneaker (Women)

I was SUPER excited to purchase these because I loved the vintage, chic, mixture that wasn't too overbearing but still subtly luxurious. When I first bought them, they fit perfectly without any issues. I ordered my true size 7 and found everything to be great. I didn't experience any tightness or discomfort. I wore them almost daily, dressed them up and down, wore them to work, traveled in them, and fell in love. A year later, these shoes became extremely uncomfortable, loose, and narrow. Weird that a shoe could exhibit a variety of counter characteristics, right? Well, this shoe did just that. It became narrow at the front and really loose in the back. The bottom of the sole also lost its softness and now feels like I'm walking on cardboard. I'm utterly disappointed by how these shoes have evolved and most certainly expected better from a renowned brand. It's truly a bittersweet encounter since I love the style.
