We take our shoes off in the house and these "clogs" slip on and off in a second. There's enough material at the heal for a snug fit. Your heal stays dry when you walk in the rain, if you you don't jump in the puddles. The curved rubber edge on the front is an improvement over the squared-off style on the earlier model of the shoe. Comfortable for hours on your feet. Stands the abuse as work shoes and looks good polished up for a night on the town.
