My arch and the ball of my feet felt great after wearing the Ocean Minded Seaweeds, and they also made my calves feel good.

I bought these after reading a customer review saying they wore Reef flip flops and found the OM to be more comfortable. For some that had to burn their hand confirm the pot was hot, I took the Pepsi challenge for myself and bought both the Reef Fanning and the Ocean Minded. The foot-beds are different than the Reefs but once I was used to them (about a couple of hours) I find every reason not to where my Reefs and where these instead. They are more comfortable and help with my arch as I wear FF for long periods of time and the support is there. That's all there is to it. I do miss the Church key on my brand new Reefs collecting dust in my closet but how often do you really use it?

Best flippin flops! I wear flip flops all yr all the time. These are the best I've found. Comfy, great arch support, stays on feet w/o toe curling, extremely durable, keeps toes protected from jams, not too slippery when wet (top or bottom), and good looking too! Plus I like the company's philosophy. Strongly recommended!

Seaweed Review - I bought these for a Hawaiian vacation and have practically worn them everyday for three weeks prior to departure. I really love the support and the comfort, which is hard to find in a flip-flop. I wear a 9.5 and purchased (blue/white) a size 9 with good success.

Ocean Minded fantastic - These flip flops are stylish and comfy. The fit is very true to size. I am getting another pair in a different color today! :)
