Where did you get those sandals? Date: January 20, 2010
"I get asked this question at least once a week. I wonder how many people have bought these sandals based on my referral? I have worn these sandals for 6 years now....just ordered my 3rd pair! They last a long time, I have been fortunate enough to be able to wear them at home and work. They have great arch support, have flattened my chronically curved under toes. The only down side is that now all of my shoes have to accommodate my flattened and spread out toes."

"These are very comfy. My only - very minor - complaint is that the embossed logo in the heel bed feels a little weird."

Probably not for me Date: January 10, 2010
"These shoes seem like a great idea, and I really want to like them... I wear a 9.5 and ordered a large per the sizing chart, but they are much too small (short). So, I need to send them back, but am not sure if I want to return them or try them out (in an XL). One reason is personal, the footbed is made of a rubber that makes my hair stand on edge, like fingernails on a chalkboard for some I suppose. The other reason for my hesitation is I'm unsure of how effective they are going to be. They instantly slipped on and were super-comfy between the toes, I expected a bit more of a stretch. I'm leaning towards ordering Gaiam's HealthyToes instead. I would still recommend these to a friend though as they seem decently-made and are cute too."

"I never knew my toes felt neglected. When I first put these on I had to separate my toes and insert them with my fingers. Now my toes spread on their own and slip right in and my feet feel wonderful. I do wish these shoes were made to wear outside, so I could wear them all day."

Ah, just what I needed! Date: December 30, 2009
"I circled these for a near-term purchase and I mysteriously received them for Christmas. I do not wear sandals, like flip flops because I do not like how my feet feel. However, these are sturdy and very comfortable, separating my toes just enough but not too much. wonderful!"

NO SEPARATION ANXIETY HERE! Date: December 28, 2009
"Anyone who doesn't mind the separation of toes in flip-flops will love these. Although it's winter and can't wear them out of the house yet, I wear them while I'm sitting on the sofa to ease foot cramps! Just wish Gaiam would carry the Foot Alignment Socks that do the same thing while you sleep!"

Love Them! Date: December 18, 2009
"I LOVE these sandals!! I purchase the YOGA SOCKs to wear with them in the cooler months. The scandals do hurt some between my toes at first, just like when you start wearing your flip flops at the beginning of the season. They are so comfortable, my feet feel great. I was a little concerned because I wear flip flops with an arch yet have not found it to be a problem at all.
I am VERY HAPPY with this purchase!!!!

Love love these sandals! Date: December 16, 2009
"Wow, I thoroughly enjoy wearing these sandals. I also appreciate the health benefits of these sandals. I think they are spot-on in the area of fashion and health. In other words, they are fun to wear, they look good and feel good on my feet. I especially appreciate them after a long day at work where I must wear "professional" shoes and stand a lot. My feet and back will be hurting...then I put on these sandals and my entire body relaxes. I highly recommend them to anyone. I will say it takes a little time to get used to having dividers between your toes, but the transition is worth it. :)"

Funky Toes Date: December 14, 2009
"I saw someone wearing these at a yoga class, and had to have them. They do take getting used to, but they are comfy and provide great support after a workout. I can't even wear regular thong sandals, but these spread out your toes and feel like summer slippers."

Excellent Footwear Date: November 23, 2009
"I recently bought a pair of thes sandals for my wife. I had seen similar ones on other websites. I have always trusted Gaiams quality and products. My wife has 3 herniated discs in her back and we have tried to avoided surgery as much as possible. These sandals have actually helped to aleviate some of her discomfort while standing and walking. Plus, the fact that they are made from recycled and eco-friendly materials was an added bonus. She likes them so much, I bought her another pair as back-up."

Really Comfortable Date: November 22, 2009
"At first, I wasn't sure about wearing these all that often but after a bit I was able to get used to them and now I feel like I cannot wear any other sandal. I recommended them to my mom who was using toe separators. She said that her toes have started to overlap and even her mom had problems with her toes. Now that we both have our Yoga Sandals hopefully we've stopped these foot problems."

fit and solving problems Date: November 12, 2009
"I was reccomended these sandals by my sister and it was the best purchase I could have made. I suffer with a bunion and have problems with the other foot in the heel. I get such wonderful relief from pain it is amazing. People have stopped me to ask where I have purchased them. Thank you for a wonderful product. It would be a great idea to produce them in white because I did where them all summer and now wearing them in the cold weather. Thank you again"

Nice Sandals Date: November 11, 2009
"After wearing these sandals consistently I can spread my toes much better. They hurt a little at first but that didn't last very long. The only issue I have is that the foot bed is stiff so I don't really roll through the foot from heel to toe, it's more like a splat. Maybe I'm just used to my old sandals having a lot of give. They are great for after a pedicure!"

Foot Saver! Date: November 10, 2009
"This is my second pair! I wore the others for Over 2 years! This new pair goes under the Christmas tree for me! After wearing my sandals, my hammer toes flatten somewhat and toes spread, making for more comfortable feet as a result. These are definitely worth a try. Also nice for saving pedicures!"
