I bought them to replace my old sandals. My previous sandals were maybe 5$ more expensive, so I expected ballpark experience with this one. Boy, was I wrong... First day I got blisters on my ankles. Straps are bad placed, it is almost impossible to position them so they do not cut into skin. My old sandals actually had a patch of the fiber on top of the moving parts of the joints, so it never cut into my skin.<br /><br />These didn't work for me at all. I think it's simple design issue, straps are not positioned well and there are sharp edges on the straps that may create blisters.<br /><br />I would give more money for decent pair, these are unusable.
