text: Cute shoes, BUT I noticed yesterday that the ball of my right foot was starting to hurt. Ive had to buy gel inserts for the thong part that goes between my toes, I'm not being delicate, I LIVE in flip flops of all types from flat to wedge, these shoes make my toes tender.  I also received them and the the rubber heel was flappy,  easy fix with glue, but still not worth 4 or 5 stars.  That should have been taken care of with the seller or manufacturer, not the buyer.  SO, with the gel insert around the toe thong, and the glue to fix the heel, they will work.  Like I said, they are cute!
