I have a pair of Niles that I wore thru last summer and about 3 weeks at WDW. I just bought a pair of the Athens flip flops while vacationing in Maui (I saw Crocs on tons of people over there) and was shocked at how much more confortable they were than my Niles. I remembered thinking how confortable my Niles were when I first bought them too. Made me start to think if others have found a point where they are just plain ol' sorta comfortable shoes and if I should spring for another pair of Niles.
Now my husband tried mine on yesterday, I didn't think he'd like them but he did. He said, "WOW THESE ARE REALLY COMFORTABLE" except his toes were on the ends. So now I have to try to find him a pair.
Each of the kids have a pair too! As much as I love them I can't see paying a higher price. We got ours for $8.88
I will get us each another pair at the end of summer to put back for Disney just in case we wear our out before December
