I have one hand bought this pair of sandals because of the reviews, on the other hand because I already know the brand and have made this positive experience. The size fits, so no need to be adjusted upwards or downwards as with many other brands. The shoe does not smell like plastic. However, the first two to three hours has pushed a bit the front Riehmen, not after that. But that may be due to the foot shape. The profile is good, the foot bed also, you sweat excessively or even unpleasant, the shoe is all in all very comfortable and recommended. The good value for money and the nice, simple design round out the recommendation.
