I first tried Croc sandals when I had a sprained ankle with brace, crutches, the sole gave much relief to the supporting foot and leg - while recovery continued I purchased Croc clogs and loved them too (chiropractor and massage therapist were glad to see I was wearing "good shoes") - I ordered these as they looked normal and not Croc-ish -- they too are very comfortable and good for my still healing body (I can end up on my feet all day too!). I have a somewhat wide foot and these fit fine when I first got them, since then they have conformed to my feet more. Work well with barefeet or socks, from casual office to a walk in the woods.
