I really like these flip flops, but when I walk in them they make a lot of noise.  The flip flop noise if you know what I mean!  They are the loudest flip flops I have ever owned.  When I walk I try to hold them closer to my foot (so they won't be so loud), but it does not seem to work.  Other than that, it did take alittle while to get use to the arch support.  I have only ever had flat flip flops.  I'm not sure if they are the best for walking long distances which is what I wanted.  But basically they are comfortable and look nice.
