I bought these at the last moment to take on a cruise this winter.  I enjoy the color...even though it's orangey it's quite a neutral color if that makes any sense!  They don't shout "I'm orange" all over the place and are pretty subtle looking.  They were comfortable from the start with no breaking in or rubbing between my toes. The soles have quite a bit of squishy-ness.  I'd like to have them in a few different colors!  Good for wearing around the house on hardwood floors,  too.
