I really liked them my husband wore them on our 3 day trip to Washington DC with a lot of stops along the way so they had to be comfortable. Unfortunately we got stuck on a tiny island and the tide came in before we could get back. My sweet husband let me carry them to walk 2 feet across water and rocks to return to the mainland. Needless to say I owe him a new pair - now I just have to wait for his size to come back. lol But it speaks of comfort and quality. A+ shoes
