The good: These are very comfortable, although not as comfy as the taller, chunkier Fit Flops. What you gain in looks, you loose in comfort. But these are still very comfortable. I've had many compliments on these and I think they're very attractive. The white finish and the leather inner sole are very nice and look expensive.The reason for the 3 stars and not 5 has been noted by other reviewers. The "white" finish has chipped off in a few places - small chips, but still... and it started after only a few wearings like about 4 or 5. For the cost of the shoe, I think the finish should last longer. I will still wear these but probably relegate them to more and more casual events (errands) sooner than I would have liked.Note that the color is called Urban White - it is not white but a cream color.I still like the shoe but I don't think I would buy these again at the price I paid.
