Wore these sandals when we went on a cruise in February. They were great for long days of walking on pavement and on trails. Also wore them for snorkling and they dried very quickly. I was also impressed on how quiet they are when walking on flooring. Excellent sandal - very similar to keens but 1/2 the price.
I bought these shoes to wear hiking in Hawaii and was amazed at how lightweight and comfortable they are. It's almost like going barefoot! I had hoped to break them in before I left but didn't have the chance so the first time out I hiked about 5 miles in them. I had a little rubbing but otherwise no problem at all. I highly recommend these sandals.
