I bought the earliest version of this sandal.  All though this shoe will last a life time, it is very, very casual (if you know what I mean).  I will be buying a white pair as it gets toward summer next year.  Will buy this one or the Panda sandal.  This shoe is very comfortable and is very supportive.  For those that need a good arch, this is your shoes.  For those that are looking for something a little more girlie, this is not your shoe.  To be fair though, as I said earlier, I don't have the latest version of the shoe.  Remember, this shoe is a unisex shoe.
