I bought these for a trip to Hawaii and could not have made a better choice.  They are sturdy enough for most trails, the sand shakes out easily on the beach, they have good support without being hot, and are easy to take off at airport security.  From the first moment I wore them they were comfortable.  Also - although I suspect the manufacturer would not recommend it - I put them in a lingerie bag on the delicate wash cycle and they come out just fine.

Since coming home, they are my first pick for casual weekend shoes.
