These shoes were soooo comfortable at first. Now that I have worn them several times the comfort is lost that is for the 3 stars. I will be adding insoles in them because these about the only closed toe sandals I can wear to work in which I had trouble finding them. I would have given them a 5 star for comfort and hard to find shoes at a great price at first but since they have lost their comfort and having to buy insoles that won't show on the sides of the shoe. I sticking with the ***'s rating. I can say that I got lots of good compliments on them but can't brag about the comfort any more. Wish they had lifetime comfort.
