Bought these after doing research on men's slide sandals. I tried Timberland earth fisherman slides and would have gone with those if VF Corp makes half-sizes.<br /><br />My foot is skinny and I have really good circulation (I'm always hot). Would have preferred a firmer footbed and a tighter fit up top but I don't walk around a lot in these so I guess they'll do for now.  The sole is slippery compared to the Timberland ones which I preferred.  I might have bought the Merrill's if the footbed on those slides were flat. I don't like the birkenstock design. Those hurt!  I also don't like memory foam and prefer rubber, eva, or latex in the footbed.  Memory foam does not provide good cushioning and get hot.  It's great as a marketing feature in theory because a few people like to sleep on the material, but not me.
