I am pretty disappointed with these. They LOOK like they will be comfortable but the sole is really hard and not malleable at all.  The cushion you see is not an arch support more just bedding kind of cushion.  And if you get them wet they STINK!  So I use them as indoor slippers but had I been in the states, I would have returned them. I had a friend bring them to Belize where I live.  And with about everything being made in China or other 3rd world countries, I just cannot trust the &#34;brand&#34; anymore.  Quality of things have tanked and this product though solid (not falling apart yet after 10 hours) I wouldn't say it was a great product by any stretch of the imagination ... I can't see how anyone would give it more than 4 stars at max- and those people probably are young and don't have a strong need for comfort or support.
