The Zilch sandal looks at first glance very well made and the fit is perfect for me. Some getting used requires the loop for the big toe, but after a few days it's done. The ride in the sandals is great. I want to compare it to walking barefoot on a thin carpet. Even the existing Teva sandals at other Shockpad in the heel, which is often caused annoyance, missing in these sandals to happiness. Compared to my Keen Newport Teva's are right at the foot airy and are also significantly lighter. Visually the effect Teva's foot filigree and purist. I can recommend the Zilch sandal fully!
