I've been looking for a long time for a shoe that will allow me to easily slip my shoes on and off as I slip out of the house, hop in the car, and overall good foot mechanics when walking. Very happy with my purchase. I've had a pair of Birkenstock sandals for almost 15 years so I had confidence in this shoe even though this is my first pair of wool and fleece clogs. Only wear the shoes for two weeks and only once outside, but wear them inside to be safe. So far so happy.
