Review on Rockport Darwyn Xband Sandal Coach Men's Shoes and Athletic by Derrick Kadam

Have them and really wanted to try them on. The first thought after getting dressed was wow! Are they comfortable and are they. The padding, the straps, everything made these sandals perfect. Exactly what I was looking for. I decided to wear them at home during the day and quickly noticed that friction pressure built up on the inside with each healing. Adjusted the sandals and the problem was solved for a moment, then the friction returned and my heel started to hurt. I removed the sandals to take a closer look at where the bottom strap that went under the top strap attached to the back of the insole. I found some seams there that seemed slightly abrasive. I tried smoothing the area out a bit and tried the sandals on again. Not good. After a few minutes, the heel rubbing continued. I couldn't even wear them for five minutes let alone all day. Too bad. They are very comfortable on your feet when you are not walking. If the stitching were hidden in the insole material or something softer was used to attach the strap then it would be great. While researching these sandals before purchasing, I read a review where the reviewer mentioned the same scenario. I thought it must be the way he wore sandals. no So I sent them back and am now looking for another pair.
