Just got the TSV.  Very disappointed in the quality.  I have the older version when it was SPENCO and there is a difference  for sure.  The older sandal has some weight to it and the fit is what it should be. This new pair feels like a feather, the fit is off in that the footbed is a bit short (10M ) and the straps seem to be placed a bit higher than they should be. Odd fit.  Last time I order a shoe  from Q.  So tired of paying all the shipping fees and returns!

I noticed some time ago that the quality of revitaligne shoes had gone to pot.  I think the tsvs are made to sell cheaply and it shows.  They are one-season shoes for me.  I've given them up.

I like lighter weight shoes and sandals, but I hate to sacrifice the quality.

I stopped buying shoes from the  Q awhile back.  I like to try on my shoes and the right foot is different than my left.  Feels good on the right then it is a winner for me.  

I do think the TSV are made cheaper as well.

I had a pair if similar style Spenco. The vamp tore from the sole. Never purchased  the brand again. I guess made for a short wear time, as fairly inexpensive.

I have Bzees casual shoes from few years back when the brand was owned by Naturalizer. They were a decent quality casual shoe. Then Naturalizer sold out to Life Stride and Bzees became a trashy brand, not even qualified to be the Blue Light Special at K-Mart. 😂

I pondered this one since they looked very adjustable for bunions.  Thanks for the review.  Glad I didn't buy.

I have a couple pair of Revitalign sandals.  Comfortable to walk in...especially the thick soles can take the HOT pavement.

 

Too bad they look like clodhoppers...

Spenco and Revitalign are not the same. They are both owned by Waco Shoe company but each have different features about them. Spenco still sells their shoes despite what some say about them going out of business and turning into Revitalign. Not true.

I see both on Amazon and wondered about that.  Revitalign definetely cheaped out.
