    A classic and we love them for the summer. My girls have worn them for years; they never wear out or leave blisters. Warning about little ones with high arches: my oldest could not wear them when she was little because her arch was too high; once she was older it was fine.

    These are the best and most comfortable, old school sandals ever! I got several compliments from women who wore them when they were little girls, and I told them that Zappos has them in all our favorite colors!

    I love Salt Water Sandals for my boys! I get them a pair every year. They are really good for new walkers because the sole is flat and they don't trip as much. They are great shoes. They look nice and can get wet. They are super durable. I feel like they run large.

    I got these for my 4 year old son to wear at a wedding. Some reviews say that they are not unisex, which I do not agree with. He wore them with a pair pin striped of black linen shorts, white button down shirt, and a black vest. They went very well with his outfit and he got a lot of compliments so they go well with all kinds of different styles. He never complains that they are not comfortable. He's even worn them in the water and they still look great. His feet are on the wide side and once I stretched them by hand as the instructions in the box suggested they were wide enough and very comfortable.

    These sandals are amazing! My daughter has been wearing hers every week in and out of water for the last 2 years and they are still practically new! The leather still looks great (we have the white) the stitching is still strong and intact and the footbed and sole are still going strong. Love them! I am purchasing her a new pair because she has finally outgrown them.

    Love these sandals. They only come in whole sizes, so I think they run a little big. They do not show wear...and we all know a five year old is tough on shoes!

    This will be the second pair of shoes I have purchased from Zappos. Serially, hassle-free. I love salt water sandals. I was not worried about the shoes not fitting because Zappos speedy return policy makes it easy. These sandals are great! My 3 1/2 year old loves them and they are very durable.

    I realized I purchased the shoes a little big, but your company makes it very easy to return the products and you send them back quickly. I have used the salt water sandals for many years when my granddaughter was growing up and now I am purchasing them for my great granddaughter. Salt Water Sandal I feel are one of the best sandals for children.

    I bought these sandals for both of my daughters. One daughter has very narrow and thin feet and sandals that fit are hard to find -- last year all she wore was flip flops. These fit her great and are comfortable! My other daughter has more "normal" feet and hers fit her great, too. They look cute with shorts and dresses. I am so happy that we found these!

    Growing up on the west coast, these were the sandals I always wore as a little girl. I came across these at Zappos (my all time fav shoe store especially for my kids) and had to have them. They do seem to run a little big, so if your questioning I would size down. My four year old loved them right from the start. I have actually had both styles of saltwater sandals for my daughter now, the original and the newer style with a little more cush on the bottom. We really loved both of them and I will buy another pair next year.

    I bought these for myself and I like them very much. I am adult with child's size feet and finding shoes that don't look childish is very hard. They fit well and are very comfortable. They do provide any arch support, but that is okay since these are a sandal.
