text: My feet are always hot and I don't enjoy wearing sandals so I thought these would be perfect for everyday summer use.  Unfortunately I only wore them for a few weeks and now they are useless because they started smelling horrible (worse than any other footwear I've owned).  I've let them soak in soapy water overnight, put them through the wash, and they still start smelling after 15 mins of wearing them.<br /><br />Also, they give blisters on my ankles, some quite large.  I realize these are water shoes and not designed for everyday wear, but I thought I could make them work. I was wrong.  They are a nice looking shoe and seem good on paper, but not so much in reality.
