I have quite a few pair of Haviannas (over 15) and I have bought them for friends as well. I actually bought these for a friend as a gift to give and I liked them so much I purchased me a pair and then I got my daughter a pair this past week. They are soooo comfortable and just right for the upcoming summer. They wear extremely well and I have yet thrown away a pair (I have given a couple away though).They are better than the cheap inexpensive kind you may get on sale at Old Navy when they have their $1 Sale. You will have them for many summers to come and they will always be in style. They fit comfortable across the top of the foot and between the toe area. No sag or hard materials. The footbed is soft to the touch of the foot and cushiony. The material will not make your feet sweat. You will be able to walk in them for hours on a hot summer day.
