My husband is 80 years old and balance is a problem for him, especially in the garden. These sandals offer good stability and the semi-closed style keeps most rock debris out. It can also be watered with a hose.
Pros
These sandals are great, I can walk and walk. These sandals are as good as 60's or 80's sandals
Cons
The shoes looked great but were too wide. I returned the shoes unworn.
