Hi, everyone. A word of warning to anyone who's considering dropping $300 (or more!) on a pair of Finn Comfort shoes. I wore the Gomera sandal every day for two weeks and it began to fall apart. After just three days it dropped the decorative stud that disguised the Velcro strap. It was purely decorative, so I didn't particularly care, even though anyone who really wanted to find fault would have noticed my shoes were not an exact match for one another. What did concern me was that it boded poorly for the durability of the shoe. Sure enough, after another week-and-a-half of use the ankle strap on one is now coming apart from the sole.
I like to walk but I am not particularly hard on shoes. At least, I've never had reason to think so before. I did get the sandals wet twice, not long before strap and sole began to go their separate ways. Looks like the water dissolved glue where, for the price, there should have been stitching.
I have a high arch and these shoes were comfortable for me, but I've had fifty-dollar sandals that lasted longer. For shame.
