I love my sandals, as for wearing them in public, have you seen some of the other crazy footware? I wore mine today to go to the dr with Steve and to the lawyers office, then walked around the furniture showroom where my son works. I feel great. I don't feel anything on the outside of my thighs right now. I can feel my calf muscles working, and it feel so right when I walk. It's unbelievable. Even if they don't "sculpt" my body and get rid of the cellulite, they are the most comfortable shoe I've ever had. When I stand, I find myself rocking back and forth, I'm sure that must be doing something!
