After wearing them for a week I find these flip flops as comfortable as can be. pro vs putting on and tying shoes. I think the strap (the part that slides between your 1st and 2nd ties) of the flip flops is too thick which makes walking uncomfortable. I guess I'm used to flip flops with lots of straps instead of a thick cord. Small lynxes in the house are fine, but I found it uncomfortable and almost painful to walk in for long periods of time.
