I tend to shift in and out of several shoe during a day so I can not comment to its comfort if worn for extended time or over substantial distance . Mid-October , 2012 . still wear these sandal , though with sock on some crispy day . my foot be happy in they . I have a painful right foot which have be problematic since my early teens . Dress shoe have always be a exercise in stoic endurance for I . most shoe grow uncomfortable in a matter of hour . I habitually change footwear several time a day to keep thing under control . as I have age I have less padding on the sole of my foot result in mount discomfort . only one pair of Columbia hiker permit I hike all over North and East Africa oblivious to my foot . until these sandal . I have find that I can wear they nearly all day walk for mile , change only when I get home . it must be wonderful to have normal foot . I hope you be not take yours for grant . now that I get old enough to not give a damn I may even evolve into wear they with formal attire . Einstein get away with non-conformance to social convention . I may just have to remain silent so that people think I must be brilliant , and eccentric . happy foot .
