These are some of the most comfortable sandals I've ever worn.  I've worn out 2 pairs over the past 2 summers and was thrilled to discover LifeStride was still making the same style when looking for new sandals this spring and bought 2 more pairs.  I have bunions on both feet and the soft leather on the sides have just enough stretch to not bind or rub my bunions.  The footbed is softly cushioned and I can wear them all day.  They're dressy enough to wear with skirts, but casual for slacks and shorts.  Great shoe!
