These were purchased recently for our grandson who wears Pediped shoes and needed a more sandal style shoe as warmer weather is nearly upon us where we live and he is outdoors and around water a lot so having the washability water friendly factor is a big plus. I cant reccommend this product enough. Great quality and so flexible and feet friendly. They  are also made to wear for at least a size and a half so like getting 2 pairs of shoes. Grandson calls them his comfy shoes and gets excited each time a new pair arrives,often not wanting to take them off when he is ready for bed.
