I can’t wear cheap flip flops or expensive ones because they don’t have the support in the right places for my flat feet. I decided to try these and I am so glad I did!! Now I can finally wear flip flops in comfort and style.
I ordered these because I thought they would be easy to slip into after water aerobics. They are easy to slip into, but when my feet are wet, they also are very slippery inside the foot bed and I don’t feel that it’s safe to walk in them. So I’ll still wear them, but without drying my feet first.
I've been wearing these sandals for a few days now, and I've noticed a couple of issues with them.
Pros :
Overall, they are comfortable and definitely help my aching feet! I have plantar fasciitis, and Alegrias are the only shoes that I can wear. I have concrete floors at work and wooden floors at home, so my feet never get relief. I started wearing Alegrias over ten years ago, and they have been MAGIC. I would highly recommend the brand to anyone who has feet, leg, hip, or back pain from tough floors!
Cons :
Anywhere in the house, you can hear the shoes. They sound squishy and "creak" when I walk
The left shoe is more comfortable than the right. The right shoe is a tad snug on the inside of my right foot and leaves a pink mark when I wear them. A blister will likely form due to this :(
Finally, the arch in the shoe is a bit high and pushes my feet outward. The arch of my foot feels pressure under it when wearing the shoes. It's not super uncomfortable but noticeable -- and may be contributing to the pink mark that has formed on my foot
Having said all of this, I know from previous experience that usually the discomfort subsides after the first few days/week or wearing the shoe -- as it forms to the shape of each individual foot
Comfortable shoes!
I had two pairs and wore them walking all day while on vacation. Very comfortable! I think I now have 7 pairs (love all the color choices.). Will be my go to sandals for the summer.
Great! It has the foot arch that I need on an all day footwear.
Comfortable shoe
