These sandals were exactly what I was looking for! They are beyond comfortable, the arch support is perfect. They don't leave any gross blackness on your feet and they have great cushion. I wanted a pair of simple thin flip flops, but needed the support because I have very high arches and my previous cheap sandals were causing my feet to start hurting and my toes to go numb. It feels like i'm actually correcting the previous damage of my feet wearing these sandals.
