These are soft as
slippers and luxuriously roomy
sandals. They are great for wearing as casual
sandals or
dress sandals but NOT good for trooping around New York City or wearing for an entire day. The footbed is thin and there is very little
arch support. Another downside is that the
Velcro closures, one on each side of each shoe, are easily opened just by accidentally brushing feet together. And, these
Velcro closures are not strong so I do not think that they would last very long. On the pair that I ordered one of the rubber soles pulled away from the footbed after only a couple weeks of moderate use so I sent them back. I would order them again because they were so roomy and soft- felt good on my feet. But I will definitely check them out more closely.
