I am not as crazy about these as others seem to be.  I wear a lot of flip-flops and they never bother me between the toes - but the post is rough on these.  I wore these to work for casual Friday - basically sitting in an office all day and only getting up occasionally.  Just from that I am raw between my toes.  And they squeak when I walk.  You could hear me coming down the hall a mile away.  The straps are padded, but they also rub - I think from the stitching.  Not so happy with these as I was looking for something cute enough to get away with wearing to work and comfy.  Not so comfy.
