I have 2 different pair of volatile sandals and this pair is not quite as comfortable as my other pair.  I have a really high instep so the strap is a little snug and has not stretched completely to fit me the way my other pair has.  The other pair doesn't have the bling like this pair does.  I really like the looks of this pair better but my other pair is a bit more comfortable without the bling on the straps.  The foot bed is really comfortable on both pair.  I would reccomend these for the foot bed alone.
