The high-arches are a great idea and really help relieve Plantar Fasciitis.  However, calling these sandals would be like calling a motorcycle a four door car--it is not.  These are glorified Flip-Flops and at nearly $70 awfully expensive ones.  Also, you cannot even take these Flip-Flops in the water--what's the point of having $70 Flip-Flops that cannot even go in the water?

The Flip-Flops will take a little bit to get used to and I did get used to it.  However, since it is only a Flip-Flop and not an enclosed shoe, your foot will move around and therefore pronate, or roll in some.  This is not good since the whole idea is to keep your foot from rolling around but the only support you will have will be the thong in the middle, this is simply not enough to keep your foot in place.  In fact, I tried walking quickly in these things and every time they just fall right off.

It would be nice if Orthaheel/ Dr. Vasyli, would step up to the plate and make a real shoe that could offer real support so you could wear it all the time--rather than beach Flip-Flops that cannot even go in the water!
