These were delivered on April 30th so I have had them for 18 days. They have their flaws (no next/previous track control AND no App integration) but for me 1st and foremost is Sound followed by Looks. Fairly lightweight, drill some holes if you insist on cheese grating your hand. The GPW beats the Ventus R though with a better shape. Makes feet fun-good quality And, in an unexpected bonus, it matched my case. This is another winner from FitFlop. NOW, REGARDING THIS ORDER:I wanted to buy two more pairs as I like to wash sleepers regularly. These sandals are easy for him to pull on and off. Light, fashionable and a lovely color.
