I bought these shoes in mid-June and I only take them off to sleep ;) For the woods, for work, for the car, I gave up sandals. Washed in the washing machine. Brilliantly comfortable and light. I have a narrow foot in size 45/46. The chart showed that I needed size 45, and the chart didn’t lie. They fit securely on the foot. Worn without socks, they don’t cause chafing. Despite the thin sole, the insoles provide nice cushioning. I’ve never had anything more comfortable and lighter on my feet
