What's up with Tretorn? I've been wearing them since I was 16, now 59. These latest sneakers are very cheap and flimsy; also ill fitting. They're very tight and narrow in the toe. I have to buy a size 8 1/2 instead of 8 for the toe to fit and the shoe is too big for me. I have about 10 pairs of brand new size 8's of the good kind that I can't wear because of the toe problem. These are not inexpensive shoes. What happened to the quality? Maybe they need to go back to making them in Sweden.
I'd also recommend:

You are right! These are completely different from the Tretorns you could get a couple years ago. Those were called Gullwing, sometimes retailers call the new one Gullwing, but they aren't. Anyway, they had more padding around the outside of the shoe and on the tongue. Much better quality, but Tretorn does not seem to make them anymore. I am so sad. Amazon.com has a couple in white. With navy in sizes 10 and 11, but nothing in smaller sizes. Oh well.

Disappointed -
Having worn my old Tretorns for at least 5 years I ordered new ones recently. The original shoes were great - I have bad knees and because they were soft and cushy they did not cause knee discomfort. However, the original shoes I own were made in the Philippines - comfortable and light.
As soon as I pulled the new ones out of the box I knew they were NOT the same. The new ones were made in CHINA - they were hard, uncomfortable and felt cheap. I immediately sent them back. I will now have to look for another brand. Such a major disappointment that to me Tretorn will no longer mean comfort.
