These flip flops are like temperpedics for your feet. Amazingly soft and supportive. I thankfully ordered a 9 vs. my usual 8 and they were a perfect fit. The first pair I got had me concerned as they were super squeaky when I walked. But after a week of wearing as commute shoes, the squeaking stopped. That was all I needed to give these 5 stars and order 2 more pairs. My favorites are the silver and bronze, which are a nice upgrade from the usual look of a flip flop.
