I bought these for my flip-flop hating husband. He's very picky about the comfort level of his shoes and only wears flip-flops when absolutely necessary (beach or pool)<br />I was on a quest to find him comfortable flip flops and I believe I have succeeded! He was surprised by how comfortable these are and has actually started to wear these at random times when we are NOT going to swim. He doesn't like to admit that he enjoys wearing these since he's always made fun of people who wear flip flops. ;)
