I had a pair. They were very popular around '72. But talk about pain! They killed your feet till you got used to wearing them!

Loved these sandals!!! so cute and came in lots of colors. They were supposed to "exercise" your legs as you walked in them. Brilliant!

those thing were such a HUGE hit and a very big status symbol in middle school.

They hurt like the dickens and I just couldn't stand them! I had a pair years later and they removed that hump and they were much more comfortable!

When I first got these I hated them, they killed my feet. Once I got used to them I wore them all the time, and my legs did get alot firmer. You used to see them being sold in every drug store around and now you can't find them anywhere. Oh, you can find the new kind that doesn't have the bump under the toe but it's the bump that does your legs good. I wore mine for so long that the heel area was worn down all the way through the rubber sole part and was wearing down the wood part. I NEED SOME NEW, OLD STYLE DR SCHOLLS.

I agree with hippie dippie, the originals of the 70s and 80s were to be found in every drug store or major chain, the ones they make today are far from the originals, I've worn them since I was a teen and still wear them proudly today, my natural wheat are my favorites, dr scholls were worn by everybody back in the day, every other person had them on including the men like myself, they can be found on ebay for bidding, if your a true scholl lover you know what to look for on ebay, i've purchesed several pairs at a steal, even the red white and blue ones [remember those],so all you die hard fans of the originals keep the fad going. The best sandal ever made

haha...yes, mine had a blue strap. Your toes had to really grip the 'bump' which really did tone your muscles. My sister stepped off a curb and slid off of hers in college..she broke her foot due to these!

I worked in Reads Drug Store chain in the summer of 1973. Every high school girl had a pair. I still believe Dr Scholls sandals make a women very attractive. Anyone else feel this way? Wish one day they make a comeback.

I am one of the few men who wear these regularly. I get nothing but compliments, usually from women whose attention is drawn to the snapping of the wood against my soles or the clacking down concrete or wooden steps. They are super comfortable, except in winter when my bare toes get a little cold.

in my small town, they couldn't be found. Visiting my sisters in Richmond, VA, we couldn't find them anywhere until we went to the seediest red-light district & I fearfully ran into a run-down drug store w/ homeless hobos & weirdos standing around outside & snapped up a pair of RED ones....I hated red, but that's what they had & I HAD to have them! Oh the exhilaration I felt! I missed the hump when took them off. It felt weird w/OUT it 1ce you got used to it!

This was the shoe every girl had to have. I didn't know men wore them too. Best clog ever.
