I usually can not stand wearing sandals.  I usually wear boots, but my wife insisted that for an upcoming cruise I buy a pair and not to embarrass her by wearing socks.  So after reading other reviews I settled on these.  They are quite comfortable with out socks.  I wore them all day for several days of hiking around the Bahamas and on various beaches.  I now wear them around the house and have worn them out into the snow to round up our dogs.
Excellent product.
