I absolutely love these!!! They are a bit difficult to walk in and a little different to get used to, however, I lathered my feet in lotion and wore these for approximately 2-3 hours. By the time I took them off the cracks in my heal were nearly gone! My feet were so soft. Here I am about 5 days later still no cracks, feet are still a bit rough. But I will continue to wear these! Especially since I seen so much improvement in just the first day!
