		<description>Chris - I noticed a little heel-tenderness in one heel when we arrived in Sweden. I only felt it when pressing with my thumb oddly!

I wouldn&#039;t have thought twice about it, but for the fact that we&#039;re off for seven weeks of walking soon and I didn&#039;t fancy starting out with a latent stress-injury.

But a week of wandering around in a combination of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://drw.me.uk/RedYeti/2008/07/03/inov8-terrocs-early-impressions/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Terrocs&lt;/a&gt; and the &quot;hut sandals&quot; at the &lt;a href=&quot;http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sommarstuga&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Sommarstuga&lt;/a&gt; (summer cottage) as well as some portage slippers when doing some kayaking (it&#039;s a hard life...) appear to have sorted that out thankfully.

I&#039;ve never thought of having to &quot;break them in&quot; but it&#039;s good to hear it&#039;s possible!

I think if I didn&#039;t take them I&#039;d really miss them... :)</description>

		<description>Peewiglet - Sorry for the late reply - just back from a week of fattening ourselves up in Sweden (the usual prep for the Big Walk!).

I&#039;ve never worn Crocs but I feel sure these will be at least as comfortable and definitely &quot;better&quot; for your feet (trotters?? ;)</description>

		<description>Yes! Ten small thumbs up! I got a pair of Flows a month ago, and love them. I mainly use them for running (absolute hell on the calves for the first couple of weeks, but great once that all calms down) - pretty comfortable up to 10km now. The tenderness on the heels should also go after a while as you adapt to more of a mid-foot strike.

I also found that they take some wearing in. I have long big toes, which meant they were not a naturally comfortable fit straight out of the box, and needed breaking in for a couple of days.

I&#039;ve got a big trip coming up in September, and am tempted to take the Flows along for the ride..</description>

		<description>Amazing! Could be an alternative to my beloved Crocs. I will try to track some down.</description>

		<description>They are excellent! Finding somewhere to actually try them on is the main problem.

But I suppose you could always order two or three sizes and send back the ones that don&#039;t fit! :)</description>
