Looks like an old lady shoe, but feels amazing!
When I opened the box, I wanted to cry. Even at 55, I think I am too young for sandals that look this sensible. The cork-look straps with the gold streaks look exactly like the sort of practical sandal elderly dowagers would take on a cruise because it goes with everything (to the extent that it goes with anything - it's neutral almost to the point of invisibility). It's just fancy enough to wear with skirts or sundresses, but looks equally appropriate for shorts or jeans. This is why I picked this pair - I hoped to be able to wear it all summer, with everything I own.
So, I've been wearing them a couple of days now, and the shoe performs as advertised - my feet feel great no matter how much standing or walking I do. I even feel like I'm standing straighter. The fabric on the insole is nice and comfy, and the straps ensure a perfect fit. There are no parts that flap, wobble, or rub; it feels like a shoe I've worn for months, right out of the box.
For the price, I expect to wear these every day until it gets cold again, and if I do, I will certainly have gotten my money's worth out of them. I have closet full of cute sandals that I don't wear because they don't feel good for any length of time. Having a great fit and feel trumps cuteness - maybe I am an old lady after all!
