In theory these flipflops sound great, but they are not comfortable.  They need more padding, because the thin layer on these shoes immediately compresses with every step such that you are actually walking on hard plastic with no give. They are actually less soft than my plain foam flipflops. These flipflops also run so small that my normal width feet  hang off both sides and nearly off the back. Overally, I would not purchase them again and would not recommend them to anyone who doesn't have very narrow feet.
