Like other Oofos, these have remarkable arch support and overall footbed comfort.  Compared to the original version with the strap between the toes, these also are easier to keep on in long walks outside even if you are walking quickly.<br /><br />However, the large amount of rubber atop my foot makes these much warmer on hot days than the traditional Oofos.  They do not feel &#34;cool and comfortable&#34; when the temperature gets into the mid 80s or above.<br /><br />On the other hand, they protect your feet more than the &#34;flip-flop&#34; design of traditional Oofos and on cooler days these sandals are fine outside.
