Review on Men'S Outdoor Hiking Sandals, Closed Toe Athletic Sport Sandals For Summer Water Shoes - Lightweight Trail Walking by Davon Clark

I've got a lot of experience with Atika Hiking Sandles. These are my 3rd pair and they appear to be as good as the first. Well made, nothing sloppy. I wear Atika sandles all year weather permitting. My first pair are similar to this model, I got years ago and they are still holding up. They are my beater pair for working the yard and car now. I estimate I've walked/hiked multiple hundreds of miles in the first pair. You can see good wear on the soles now and the webbing is starting to let go as expected. Still very usable. I put them through a lot of punishment. They hurt my feet after the first hike but I determined it was due to using muscles and tendons in a way my feet weren't used to. I stuck with them and they are comfortable now and the new pair is the same. I think the fit is actually better for your feet than standard shoes. I don't need to worry about socks all summer! No foot fungus is another benefit. When they get dirty I just hose them off and they dry like new. My personal experience with these were life changing. I rarely wear running or other shoes anymore in three of four seasons. The price is fair and I would bet they are superior to others costing twice as much. Great protection.
