This style is horribly uncomfortable, but super cute looking. They didn't used to always be that way I have a older pair this style that is comfortable. But in the past few years they changed the plastic piece that goes between your toes. It's super stiff and I find quite painful to wear the old pair I have it's a softer plastic possibly a slightly different shape. Every once in a blue moon i wear them in hopes that they're not as bad as I recall. It's a shame because this style is super cute. Here's a pic of the old pair I have it's over 5 years old. Only the design is so ugly to me now I almost never wear them lol.

Ooooh~ I have that style too, I bought them two years' back. Yeah I don't think they're the most comfortable but they're not excruciating either? Maybe it's just really recently they changed that piece.

They changed the piece of plastic and it actually is painful [emoji31] it's very ridged and almost angular in design. The old pair I have the plastic is a lot softer and more rounded. It was the first thing I noticed when I got my silver pair about 2 years ago. I generally will where them when I know that I won't be doing a lot of walking. Like the other day we had lawn seats to a outdoor concert so I can easily kick them off and go barefoot lol.

Mine aren't comfortable either. I switched to Arizona and Mayari styles only now. But I miss the gizeh!
