I loved these.  Used them in different areas over a week in Aruba, rocky, sandy, pavement etc.  They were very comfortable and very durable.  I'm 210 lbs and they are a size 11.  I have pain if I don't wear comfortable shoes when walking on pavement and I wasn't planning on using these for regular walking.  However, I ended up in a situation where I had to and these shoes were very comfortable.  I was surprised. Aruba has really fine sand and I was expecting to get a bunch in the shoe through the fabric, but that didn't happen...except when I had a kayaking incident  :-) I would definitely buy these again.
