“Keep looking!”

“While these look good, their performance is horrible. The leather surface is smooth rawhide (not suede like Birkenstocks or others), which makes your feet slide around too much, causing blisters and bruises. Another detractor is when I have been walking on a sidewalk and walked on the edge of an uneven part (raised brick or tree root or edge of the curb), normally not a problem for me in sandals, these caused my foot to unexpectedly slip off the side of the sandal and almost trip me up. Frustrating to say the least. Short of trying to suede the leather myself somehow, I tried wetting it, but it quickly dries up again and is just as slippery. The slickness is uncomfortable and potentially hazardous. Other than that, no complaints, just a really slippery surface.”
