text: Not as comfortable as my Teva Tochi sandals, but they provide a lot more protection for when I am working in the shop. It is mainly the heal area that seems to be out of alignment in some way, both L and R shoe. However, it is not major and might go away with time. Initially the toe areas bent up rather a lot and made my toes tired, but that has gone away.<br /><br />They were initially hard to get on since the stretchy tongue area was attached to both sides of the shoe. Because of that, the buckle was not significantly useful. However, I cut the connection under the buckle strap near the buckle and removed a some of the elastic. It fits a lot better and is much easier to put on - more like a true sandal that way.
