What a GREAT shoe! True to size and lightweight.
First of all, I have THE WORST heel and ankle issues. I have wider feet and always have. I vacillate between a size 8.5 and 9 normally, and I have a pair of OOFOS flip flops in 9 that I wear around the house that fit amazingly well and feel AWESOME on my weirdly painful feet. (Yes, it is true - I cannot even walk barefoot at home because of foot pain.)So, I bought these in a 9 after knowing I wanted that same amazing OOFOS comfort/foot bed, but I live in Cleveland and will need close-toed shoes to leave the house very soon!I wore these for the first time on Saturday when I took my uber-picky daughter shopping for a homecoming dress. We were at the mall for probably 5 hours - walking and standing the entire time, and then to the grocery store for another hour and a half. These shoes were amazing the entire time. No plantar fasciitis pain AT ALL. Toe box is an ample size so my toes were not crammed into the shoe. Arch hit just right - heel cup was like walking on a cloud. All in all, quite an amazing shoe!I see the comments about being too small/too narrow - I did not experience that at all. I also saw the complaints about the green tag rubbing the ankle wrong. I wore low ankle (not no-show) socks and I did not experience that rubbing, either. In fact, I tucked the tabs in because the bright green was killing my OSU shirt mojo - and they stayed tucked in. Either tucked in or sticking out - neither say rubbed my ankle at all. BY FAR the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned - and I have spent THOUSANDS of dollars looking for a shoe that could sustain me walking/standing all day. Found it! Worth every penny. 😍

I have 14 pairs of Oofos Low shoes - all colors. I needed a white pair. Oofos have a very decent high arch, cushy sole, lightweight on your feet. The mesh top let’s your feet breathe. However, the inside sole can make your feet move around the shoe in summer, due to heat & humidity. I just toss in some baking powder to give me traction & less movement in the shoe. My knees have tears in both meniscus & Oofos stability keeps my knees from aching. I can wear these shoes for about 6-8 hours if needed. I’ve also hiked in them (wearing socks). Sometimes, you forget you’re wearing them, they’re that comfortable. If you have a high arch or knee problems, Oofos give you the support you need. Highly recommend!

Got rid of my foot pain!
I work as a preschool teacher, so I’m on my feet 8 hours a day on a very hard floor. For a month, I’ve had an inflamed ligament in my foot that hasn’t improved at all. One week after wearing these at work and around the house, I’ve had minimal discomfort this morning! My feet are still sore after work, but not nearly as bad. I have a slipped disc in my lower back, and they’ve really helped that pain as well. I will be ordering the sandals for wear around the house and another pair of these for weekends.As far as the fit goes, if you have wide feet, they may not be comfortable. I have very narrow feet and they almost fit my width perfectly. So they are a little less than “average “ width. I could see the strap on top causing issues if you struggle with edema. It appears elastic in the photo, but it’s actually rubber that doesn’t stretch much. I’d also recommend wearing them around the house for a day or two before using them as a work shoe because they really feel different than any other shoe. You may feel like you’re going to lose your balance, but it’s because you’re walking on a cloud!

Not like the flip-flops!
I love the Oofos flip-flops, and am on my third pair. When I needed a good pair of work shoes for my standing job, I specifically wanted this brand. I mulled over all of the reviews and decided to give them a chance. They work better than my current Sketchers memory foam, tennis shoes and are very comfortable. They do have a high arch in them but I like that. but they are not nearly as comfortable and supportive as the flip-flops that I’ve had for years. They felt a little weird for the first day I wore them, but but now I have acclimated to them and they feel fine. I would go a half size up. I wear a 7 1/2 and the eights were perfect. The shoe itself is light and comfortable. Update - I washed them and put them in the dryer and they shrank considerably in the toe area. So if you need to wash them I recommend air drying. I am hoping they stretch back out. But are still comfortable and in good shape for all the walking I do on them for work.
