Anyone have the Ahnu Karma?

I ordered these and am wearing today at work to see what I think. They are highly rated and very comfortable. However, the negative reviews say the same thing over and over...they make your feet sweaty (being so opened on the side is a surprise) and that they make your feel smell really bad. I have been sitting for about 2 hours now, not walking much and the bottom of my feet are indeed sweaty. Just wondering if anyone else has them.

I have a pair and often wear them running errands all day here in Tucson. I wore them as my "dinner" shoes on our trip to Istanbul and Greece in the fall.

They don't/didn't seem to make my feet sweaty or smelly. Maybe I didn't wear them long enough or it was too cool in the fall. The humidity here at home may be too low to cause that problem.

That's good to know you didn't have any issues. I think they would be cute with summer dresses. I'm taking a pair of walking sandals already and was wanting something other than another paid of walking sandals. I do notice that I'm getting that shoe farting sound in the right when when i walk (my foot sucking up from the footbed).

It's low humidity in my office right now, so don't know why the bottom of my feet are sweaty in these. I brought my other flats that are leather. I'm going to put those on in awhile and compare.

Seriously...I just got up and walked upstairs again and hoping no one hears it. And this just 5 hours of sitting at my desk. They are cute, but I think they are going back. Plus..my feet were very hot and perspiring. Just popped on my lifestride black leather flats and it feels better already .....too bad!

I get the sweaty feet syndrome with both the Ahnu and Keens. In Keens, my feet feel like they're on fire. It's those rubber soles. My husband will not be parted from his Keens. He loves them.
