I am very sad to have to be returning this shoe. I have been having a lot of foot pain recently, and had high hopes for this shoe to help. The sole feels great, and the pain in the plantar portion of my foot feels much better. Unfortunately, the straps are so right that if I walk at a normal pace they have dug into the top of my feet and caused scabs to form. I love the sole, but can't wear them due to the straps.
