These really are the most comfortable and stylish flip flops I've ever owned. They are very cushiony-- not too tight, not too loose, and they look fabulous on my feet! I need them in every color. Highly recommended!! Worth the cost for flip flops because they last. You get what you pay for, and these are definitely worth it! I'd give them 10 stars if I could! I even walked 5 miles in them a few days ago, and my feet showed no signs of distress... very comfortable the whole time. I'm a barefoot girl, but these are the next best thing!
