I love these sandals. I used to wear the Masseur ankle-strap sandals but they no longer exist. These sandals are much better. They look much nicer and I like the velcro straps that make them so user friendly. My job requires a lot of standing and these alleviate that burning that I always got on the ball of my foot. Since I wore Masseurs for many years I have no problem with the bumps.

Make my feet feel so much better. They recommend wearing them only 20 minutes per day until you get used to them. Absolutely do this. This shoe is not for long walks or all day wear, but after a day on your feet, a half hour in these shoes gives your feet a great massage and makes them feel terrific. My husband was so impressed that he bought a pair as well. He is equally happy with them.

Funny-looking, but comfortable and therapeutic. These may take some getting used to, but eventually you should be able to wear them all day. Think of them as your personal reflexologist, as they gently massage your soles to relieve stress. The man-made materials actually look and feel like leather. And the heel strap is removable.

Great! Absolutely Great! Received them within one day. Fit perfectly. Much better than the Australian Masuer Sandal. For those having a nodule comfort problem try slowly extending the wear time from ten minutes a day to longer periods. After a time they can be worn all day. I have been told the calcium and mineral deposits that settle on the bottom of the feet are the reason for the initial discomfort for some people. Sounded good to me. Nevertheless, I wear them all day now in complete comfort. Might even get cremated in them when the time comes. :-)

Wonderful stimulation! I've tried so many shoes for added relief of neuropathy and this is absolutely the best! They're the only sandals (or shoes) that I can wear all day. The nubs massage the feet, especially the ball and pads of the feet where I need it. Moderate arch support but hey, can't be perfect! I'm getting ready to order a second pair.

I wanted to like this shoe - Unfortunately, I must return this Trekker style sandal as the fit was odd. The massaging effect was great, however, my heels would move off to one side as I walked. Not sure if I ordered the wrong size or what. I may be adventurous enough to try another size later on.

So-so - Generally quite comfortable except --- those little massaging nubs feel like needles on sensitive feet and hurt like the dickens. Inserting a thin insole, however, solved the pain problem and they are now incredibly comfortable. Can walk for miles in these shoes.

I love the idea of the massage sandal so I bought this pair. I am having great difficulty getting used to them. The instructions say to wear them for only a half hour at first. I can only wear them for about 10 minutes without my feet burning and painful. I still want them to work well, so I haven't given up on them yet.

Bought Trekker after buy the sandal which I love. Trekker rubbed a sore place on little toe and is not as comfortable as sandal. They need a slight revise design on this shoe.

I love this shoe for all activities. I have plantar fasciitis and added a store bought arch and got the extra aggressive support required for my recovery. The negative is that they are not made of leather and the metal buckles are unattractive. They look cute enough in photograph but look a little too orthopedic for my tastes. I have kept them despite appearance. If they were leather they would be perfection.

Not as durable and good looking as I expected - The shoe materials don't seem like they will last very long. The straps seem to stretch easily and the nubby surface seems as if it is not adhered well. The nubby soul is very comfortable.

Feels good walking - Not a pretty shoe but feels great on my feet. I have back and leg problems, but these shoes are stimulating. They did, however, cut into my little toe, but with a small cushion on the toe I have really no complaints. I would buy the Trekker shoe again.

OUCH!!! The assorted velcro straps make adjusting the sandals to fit just right are great, but those little bumps that are supposed to massage are excruciating! I'd hoped they would wear down a little, but they didn't. These sandals were sheer punishment.

Didn't fit and the nubs hurt - Maybe I have sensitive feet but the little nubs hurt! There's no way I could walk around all day in these. They also fit poorly. These are the smallest size 10's I've ever tried on.
