These would be better for warmer months given how thin they are. These work great for my beats, they?re super easy to keep clean. As well, I have a slightly younger guy who must have sensitive skin on his back because he doesnt clean it and has quite a lot of dandruff/flakes. You can use any kind of car wash soap in these. Luckily, the back of the shoe is adjustable, so it fits properly around the ankle which is a perfect setup for me, since my ankles are narrow. They will be nice to have for the spring however. Never had more comfortable sandals in my life! I havent had an issue with charging like some people have. Good barbell pad. With my previous shoes my feet would swell but not with these bad boys.
