text: This shoe is NOT the same as it used to be.  I have several existing pair of the &#34;old&#34; Scout sandals but compared to the one I just received there<br />were several discrepancies.  Whatever Naturalizer has done to make this happen is not good and I can only guess they are now being made<br />elsewhere as the materials an workmanship do not appear to be the same.  Sadly, I had to return them and am awaiting my credit.
