I bought these for a hiking vacation in Europe. I wore them to dress up for non-trail activities. Walked extensively in town with no blisters or discomfort. Great arch support! Paired with skirts, shorts and jeans. : ( Lost these great sandals somewhere in Switzerland.
I purchased these sandals for urban and trail hiking while visiting Greece. These sandals were so much better than I could have anticipated! They worked perfectly for hiking easy trails as well as dressing up with a sundress for evening strolls through Greece. Will definitely purchase again.
I bought two pairs the blue pair and the multi white pair from different stores. They are the same size. The blue seem to hold the velcro better. I don't know why. They are both wonderful shoes and I wore them every day during a 17 day vacation to PEI, NH, and ME. No rubbing, some pain in the arch one day. I switched the shoes to avoid that. I wore them in rain, on mountain tops, in the grass and by the shore. The cleaned up by rinsing them in the shower. I have to tell you. I purchased an expensive pair of dress sandals from another company to wear to dinner during vacation... reputable company came highly recommended. My ankles swelled like golf balls fifteen minutes after putting them on. I ended up wearing the tevas with skirts and they looked fine. No swelling of ankles and they felt like they were molded for myf eet. I really love them.. This is after trying Aetrex and SAS, both of which I returned.
