Feel is solid and hefty. Have owned several Dearfoams slippers in the past, but none with an open toe (although always with open heel). I tested it out and I will definitely be wearing it for graduation. Im probably not buying another flagship at release ever again. I could not take the chance of a trip risk. Bought as a present for my daughter. Ive seen people complain about the click, describing it as "mushy" and idk what on earth those folks are on about. I wear house slip-ons every day and usually I get a good two years at least before the stink sets in. Every bit as good as the similar and more expensive PRS-7-2. They are also comfortable for the ride!
