I bought the natural color yesterday for an upcoming trip to Disney World with the family.  Knowing I'd be walking non-stop for 5 days straight with a history of foot problems, I read about these and thought I'd give them a try.  Let me just say... I'm in LOVE!  I wore them doing errands today to break them in before the big trip... and here are my thoughts:

1.  At first, I was worried that the part where the footbed met the inner arch of the foot would rub and cause a blister, because I do tend to walk toward my instep a bit.  I did feel it for a few minutes, but then it softened up and I felt like I wasn't wearing shoes at all!

2.  The footbed has got to be the softest, most heavenly thing ever invented...  can't say enough about it!

3.  I went for 1/2 a size over my normal shoe size,..knowing that my feet do swell a little bit when I walk a lot in the heat.  I am very happy with my choice, as I have big toes, but plenty of room left in the toe area.  Even with the bigger size, my feet are held firmly in the shoes by the straps.  The straps themselves are very pliable and soft... no rubbing, blisters or any discomfort at all with the straps either.

I honestly have nothing bad to say about these shoes... they are very lightweight, and are going to be fantastic for the stinking hot days I'm expecting during a summer trip to Disney!...  They are more expensive than I am usually used to paying for a good pair of "sporty mary-jane" type of shoe... but honestly, I'm considering going back for the black pair!
