Great thong!!! Dynamite fit. Nice and snug. Great arch support; nice heel padding. They won't slip off and it does feel like you can run in them, like another reviewer stated. These will last a few years at least. I would order a size larger than you normally take though.

Flip-Flops On Steroids - Great sandal. Tons of tracking, I actually ran about a mile in them the other day. I don't recommend that, but if you have to, you can be assured that they will hold up. They look great with shorts and denims as well.

Comfy Flip Flops - I wear flip flops year round for work and play. I have tried a lot of thongs, and the Sperry Santa Cruz thong is the best. I work at a marine fuel dock, so I am jumping on and off boats all day. These thongs have a good grip inside and out and are very comfortable. They are the BEST.

Great all around thong - They are comfortable, durable & look good. What I really like about them is I can wear them to the beach or out on the town. I also own the gold cup thongs which are super comfortable and look even nicer, but are twice as much money and I won’t wear them to the beach or get them wet only because they are my favorite thongs. You can't go wrong with Sperry thongs, great buy!!!!!!

The best flip-flop ever!! This is my third pair of this style of Sperry. I have had many different flip-flop style sandals over the years and this is the most comfortable I've EVER encountered. The toe strap is made of soft leather so there is never an issue with chafing between your toes. There is more arch support in this sandal than most of the shoes I have ever worn. You can't go wrong with Zappos. Free overnight shipping and free return shipping make this a much cheaper and easier buying process than driving to your local (or not so local) store and then hoping they have your size in stock.

My second pair... I'm on my second pair. My first pair was stolen off a beach in Cabo San Lucas after I took them off to wade in the ocean. Same thing happened to my friend's flips, except that HIS were returned to the hotel desk (mine weren't). Very comfortable for long walks.

Center piece was made of a dry v-shaped leather piece which cut deep grooves between my toes on both feet after only a short wear time. After over three weeks, still not completely healed. Avoided infection through the use of antibiotic salve.

Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Would not recomend this shoe without a design or material change.

Surprisingly comfortable - My wife insisted that I get some flip-flops to wear around the pool for a recent vacation. I've got flat feet and need lots of arch support and the first few flip-flops I tried were very unsupportive. Imagine my surprise, these have as much support as my street shoes with orthotics. I even wore them hiking through the stone streets of Tuscany. The leather toe divider is a little stiff at first and takes a little breaking in.

Great Transition from Birkenstocks - I wanted to move from Birkenstocks to a decent flip-flop, since Birkenstocks don't react well to water. Had lots of reservations about something between toes. Also was worried about arch support. This sandal is a great choice. Good cushioning, decent arch support, and they seem to take care to be the between-the-toes component is well-finished. Pleased with this purchased.

Thong pulls out - I love these...4 pair so far, BUT, they do fall apart! The tong pulls out after a few months, Bummer, and for what they cost they shouldn't self disintegrate.

Best flip flops ever! This is my second pair of the Santa Cruz that I have purchased from Zappos. These are really sturdy thongs and very comfortable to boot. As always Zappos was amazing with their shipping and handling! I just saw the black pair and may have to get a third pair now!

Sizing - I truly enjoyed my first pair. I spend much of my summer months at the Lake. I have to say this shoe was definitely the one for me. Comfort!!! On the negative side, the shoe finally gave out when the thong portion, between the toes loosened and separated from the sole of the sandal.

Love 'em - My husband has this thong in two colors because he loves them so much. It is very comfortable and works well for someone who has problems with having something between their toes (sensitive to this). This is about the only shoe he wears all summer.

Sperry Top-Sider's Santa Cruz - Love the comfort and style. I'm on my second pair and have ordered a third. A negative is the durability of the toe strap. I have experienced the leather breaking down and separating from the sole itself. Needs to be more durable for the price. Also, the shoe comes in a size smaller than marked and is somewhat narrow. However, the leather did stretch quickly and felt very comfortable afterwards.

Sperry Top-Sider Santa Cruz Thong - Love these shoes. I also had to buy men's since Sperry doesn't offer this model for women. They're wonderful shoes, but they do run short. I had to return mine and get a larger size.

This is wonderful for women too - This is my second pair. While trying to find a comfortable thong I saw these in the men's department last year. They are perfect and women are always asking me where I got them. Although my old pair is still in great shape I wanted a spare. They are wonderful for walking and on our boat

I just had to write you about what an incredible experience it has been recently to deal with your company. I had bought a pair of rather expensive Mephisto sandals at the turn of the year that kept cutting my feet and giving me blisters. After wearing them 3 or 4 times, I gave up, threw them in the closet and figured I'd have to donate them… I ordered a new set of Mephistos that arrived this week and fit perfectly - no blisters, no problems. Along the way, I had a different pair sent that also fit wrong and those I sent back. Each time postage was paid BOTH ways, which I found remarkable, and the new shoes even came second-day air at no extra cost. I know this is standard policy for you folks, but it blew my mind. And each time I called customer service to handle the sending back of the original pair and then the second pair, until I got the final correct pair, each representative was kind, courteous, and super-competent. What an incredibly well-run company. You'll have a customer for life from me and I'll even tell my friends about you. Thanks for everything! Tosha S.
