I used these shoes three times: for Shichi-Go-San, graduation, and entrance ceremonies. They look like regular loafers at first glance, but they have Velcro straps, making them easy to put on and take off. They are soft and comfortable to wear, so they don't hurt, and my son said they were easy to walk in, like sneakers. They seemed to fit my son's wide feet perfectly. There are no noticeable stains or scratches, but please understand that these are used items. Color: Black Size: 18.5EE Pattern/Design: Solid Season: Spring, Autumn, Winter
