I have plantar fasciitis, and even my tennis shoes sometimes hurt my feet. Some orthopedics can cost hundreds of dollars for one pair of shoes. For less than 50 bucks, I can purchase several pairs (a black pair of the flip flops, a sea foam green pair of the flip flops, a pair of black mules, and now these slides), and have a variety to choose from. They are UGLY, but that doesn't matter when you consider the pain relief. I use Oofos for walking outside, around the house, and even at work (with khakis or slacks you can hide them). The slides and flips flops fit about as expected, maybe a little on the big side, as I normally wear an eight to eight and a half, and the size eight is perfect. The mules/clogs you will need to go a size up (I bought a nine).
Now, onto the durability. My cat kind of chewed a tear into my first pair, but I was able to repair them with super glue. I didn't use to wear them outdoors, but I started to recently. I would not subject them to heavy abuse, unless you don't mind getting them ruined. I wore my sea foam green ones on a recent week long cruise, and they held up perfectly, but I don't know how they will hold up over time. Depending how much you use these shoes, you may need to replace them about every six months. Still, not a bad deal for the end of foot pain.
