【elf shoes】SYNTHESE16 Shoes Review

I think there is a problem with the service life.

I was looking for a pair of lightweight casual shoes for a short commute to work and short distances, and I found this product and purchased it last spring. (It is a mass merchandiser.) It was the end of September last month, after the second summer, when I took it out of the shoe box. The sole was not worn out at all, but it was not used very often. I am disappointed because I used to take out the Inner Sole every time, dry it in the shade overnight, and store it in the shoe box.
I reported the situation to Manufacturer and received the following response (This is a partial list.) 。

I am pleased to announce that ElfS17 (16.) We are sorry for the inconvenience caused by the damage to the shift guard part of the
Our sincere apologies.

The material used in the Shift guard appears to be rapidly deteriorating and losing its flexibility.
Therefore, we will discuss with the production factory to review the strength and materials.

The product has been in use for more than 2 years. (It's been less than a year and a half.) If you would like, you can use your

If you would like us to conduct an investigation, please send us the actual product.

That's all
If there is an announcement of a new product or a minor change in material to improve durability, etc., I will consider repurchasing, but if not, I will not be able to recommend it. View detail

Light and easy

It is quite well-ventilated, so it is not so stuffy even in the summer.

It is light and easy to wear due to the BOASystem, but the toe side does not squeeze very well.
I am a little disappointed that it seems somewhat loose. View detail

After trying on several different types of shoes, I decided on these based on ease of wear and price.
There was also a Point, so I bought it from this Site.
I have only used it about 5 times, but it is easy to walk on. A little distance.
The size is also a problem with the usual size.
There was not.

If you were sleeping, you could cover it with Pants. On the ankle front since you are standing.
Surprisingly, there is a gap. All these things are like that.

Individual differences or...?

As mentioned in other reviews, the Shift PedalProtector cracked. I bought it last year, put it in hibernation for 6 months, and just started wearing it today (bought a year ago, less than 6 months of actual use) and this is what happened.
Only city touring, Zero for hard sports riding, and of course Zero for Off.
The only thing I can think of is storage conditions or quality issues, and if the others are the same, then it's the latter,

It's a shame because I have no problem with the comfort of the shoes, etc. I have another pair and would like to be careful about recurrence. View detail

What kind of construction?

I bought these for the summer and have only used them a few times, but the rubber part of the GEAR's cover has broken off and the inside of the Shoes is completely exposed. How can they break so quickly? I probably won't buy this Manufacture again. View detail
