Lochie Sandal

I’m loving my Lochie sandals, from the moment I put them on they have been super comfortable. Note I have put in an extra high arch support obtained from my podiatrist due to having high arches. My Lochie’s are currently taking me through Vietnam, through the streets of Hanoi, up the 400+ steps to the Lying Dragon in Trang An, on the Be River, Ha Long Bay, Hoi An, and now Hue. They have been brilliant for both day and evening 💗💗💗💗💗

In many way these were exactly what I was after for life in the subtropics & travel in the often wet tropics: all weather, adjustable (for my odd sized feet) & simply stylish.

But, the little raised ridge which is supposed to find itself between toes & ball of foot is obviously designed with long toes in mind. On my short wide feet it irritatingly landed right under the ball of my foot & I had to carefully cut it back to make them comfortable.

Now they work fine...

These are truly the gumboot of sandals—bouncy and comfortable—good for all-day walking, in any weather (except maybe snow)! One minor issue to look out for: there are a few tiny but quite hard rubber nubs along the insole (mainly on the corners of the moulded lettering or the little raised toe separator at the front) that were uncomfortable underfoot but they came off very easily with nail clippers. I think they're from the machine when the soles are moulded. I did read a few reviews that mentioned something like this—so if you have soft feet (like I do), rub your fingers along the insole and you can easily feel the (very tiny) hard nubs of rubber and clip them off with nail clippers. Apart from that, I have nothing but good things to say about these shoes—they're surprisingly elegant and go with so many outfits—and great for daily wear. A request for the future: the Lochie as a flatform—with an extra inch thickness to the sole: that would be AWESOME!!
