These sandals are awesome! We have 2 girls and live in Florida, so we get a lot of use out of them. I was worried that our new walker would trip because of the thick sole, but they have not been a problem. Also, the straps don't leave marks on their ankles or feet, and both girls can wear them for hours without discomfort. They are such high quality that they last through both girls and can be passed on to cousins afterwards.
