I just read one of the reviews here where the woman can't wear the shoes at all because of the discomfort the thong causes between her toes.  I've only had this discomfort occur when I have been using these shoes an awful lot.  However, it does occur with prolonged use so that is the one negative you might want to keep in mind.

Everything else I have to say is positive.  The shoes are attractive, comfortable, can be worn everywhere, including to and in the pool. ( I have actually used them for water jogging and they worked just fine.) Because of the back of the shoe, these hold your foot in place much better than the backless versions.  Usually my feet are coming out of this type of show but with these my feet never move.

Due to the crosslite material in the shoe construction, the shoes are at once very lightweight yet also very sturdy and good for your feet.  Even if this shoe does not appeal to you, the Crocs shoe line is excellent, colorful, stylish, good for your feet and affordable. There is a Crocs etail outlet online which gives you an even wider selection of the shoes.  This is my 4th set of Croc shoes and you too will become an addict once you get your first set.

I have this shoe in the much more attractive orange and white color plus they are currently on sale at that crocs etail outlet I mentioned.
