These are the most comfortable clogs ever ! They look like Crocks but are softer and smoother. I suffer from very painful plantar fascitiis and these shoes are the best. The only downsize is that they make feet sweaty and a little smelly. Also, do not use with wet feet (e.g. right out of the shower) as they can be slippery inside (and outside). Overall, I give them a thumb up - or rather, two big toes up !
