You can’t call it bad. It’s an honest shoe for the money. The leather is very mediocre. It creases and hurts your toes at the crease. It’s not leather that will soften after a while. It’s plastic; it won’t break in. If someone wears 44.5 in Nike, they should get 45 in these. Decent quality overall. Unfortunately, Adidas made the Originals, just like Asics made the Onitsuka Tiger, into premium brands with astronomical prices for what you’re actually buying. So the shops were left with second-tier products. Basically, wear them now and don’t complain.
