I bought them mainly as indoor shoes. Comfortable, with soft soles. I live in it in the country and have a gravel driveway As others have pointed out, the support block design on the soles takes a lot of pebbles. Every time I step on a gravel driveway, 2-3, 1/2 inch pebbles in every I don't like stepping barefoot on 1/2" pebbles. You should rename them to Pebble Poluza. Wanted comfort but wouldn't repurchase the Pebble Poluza.
