I walk 9 miles a day, 6 days a week. I was looking for good hiking sandals. I carefully created reviews of several sandals and ordered these sandals based on them. It came today and I put it on straight away. I took 3 steps and the pain was excruciating (like it hurt h _ _ _ _). The inner surface next to the sole of the foot is a rough raised nodule. Fingers trapped in the running board. Needless to say I am very disappointed as I wanted so much to walk in these sandals.
