This is the closest thing to going barefoot (a state of life which I prefer).  Recent surgery left me needing a lift for one leg, forcing this barefoot kid to wear shoes in the house.  Wearing these sandals while using double-sided carpet tape to attach the lift eases my walking; and the minimal strappage accommodates wide feet as well.  The only 'downside' is that the straps start off rather stiff; I expect they will soften up more as I wear them.  I like these sandals!
