Not beautiful shoes but they are wonderful for my feet.

This is the best shoe I've found for my plantar fasciitis and heel spur- even better than my Birkenstocks. They let me walk totally without pain. For that I would give them 5 stars. But the shoes have a strong odor of rubber tires- so strong I can't wear them indoors because the fumes they give off make me feel sick. I store them in a file cabinet drawer and only put them on when I go for walks outside. This is too bad, because they make my feet feel so good I'd like to wear them all the time.

Love, love, LOVE these shoes! I wear them around the house constantly. 'Would definitely recommend them to people with healthy feet, as well as those who have painful, or problem, feet.

Unfortunently I had to return them. I have flat feet so the arch support through my gait off causing back pain within minutes of wearing them. if there is another shoe like this without the arches I would consider them

These are my second pair of Kenkoh sandals. I got my first pair when I had plantar fasciitis. They were the only shoes that made my feet not hurt. I wore that pair out and need a new pair.

I have had these for 2 days. Adjustment time is not bad,I am wearing them all day the 2nd day at home.I am not on my feet all day. I like how my feet feel after have been walking from them. Since I have several health conditions, that reflexology can/may help... I look forward to seeing how these work.
