Fits Narrow feet! I have a collection of salt-water sandals. I've bought most of them used and yet they've been through my daughter, son, and have enough wear left in them for my next daughter. They weather dunkings in the lake, sandboxes, and garden work. They wipe clean and when covered in mud, can be dunked in a bucket. The style works well for both boy and girls in the navy and browns. I only have two issues with them. I've tried on the adult sizes and it is like walking on a board! The other problem is that the bottom is without traction. Very smooth. My kids had problems at the playground with their feet slipping off the bars and they wipe out when they run on some carpets. I buy them because my daughter has a very narrow foot. They are a decent fit but they are starting to be too narrow for my son who is a medium width. These sandals don't fit my friend's boys who have a wider, thicker foot. The Hoy Strappy sandal is even more narrow, has cushion in the foot bed, and traction on the sole so would be my preference.

I really like Hoy shoe's salt water sandals. I been purchasing them for my child since she was 1 year old. Now she is 7 yrs old. I really like the colors Salt Water Sandals offer. My child indicates that they are comfortable. I will continue to buy them in the future.

I have purchased Saltwater Sandals for all three of my kids over the past years. These sandals are the absolute best for wear and value. My kids wear them from April to October everyday from play to church and they still look awesome. I will never purchase any other brand of sandal.

I have purchased Saltwaters for both of my children throughout the years. My 13 year old wore them when he was young and my 3 year old lives in them. I can remember wearing Saltwater's myself as a teen. They were quite the rage in the 70's for us. Thanks for continuing the tradition and making such a great shoe. I do however miss the neon green color.

I remember these shoes as I was growing up on the Oregon Coast and now I have purchased a pair for my daughter. A great sandal for any occasion.

Phillips - The soles are a little stiff and very slick. Otherwise, I love the sandals.

My daughter picked these out for herself, She loves them. She has long narrow feet, most new shoes that I buy her rub somewhere or give her a blister. These were painless; they were still a little wide on her but that is expected with her feet, but the leather is so soft that it didn't hurt her feet and the back strap is low enough that it didn't rub her ankle bone. We both love these.

These are a GREAT sandal for kids, as they are very durable! This is my daughter's second pair of sandals this summer--I wish I have spent the money on these to begin with. She likes them and they go with everything.

Made in the USA! My daughter is really hard on sandals, so I was really pleased to find such a sturdy pair, and waterproof, wow! They're American-made, which means a lot to me, and way cheaper than the European-brand sandals I usually buy.

The Perfect Sandal - My daughter has a narrow heel, and most shoes (even velcro sandals) slip or rub. I was so excited to find these shoes on Zappos, as most trips to the shoestore end up in tears with nothing fitting right (especially the cute shoes). We ordered them in the Shiny Fuchia and they are adorable!! I'm already planning on ordering them in another color for when school starts. They seem as if they will really hold up well, I don't have to worry where she wears them because they're waterproof. She's worn them every day and they still look brand new. Oh, thank you Zappos-- I may never have to drag my 6 year old through the mall again!!

Great shoe! The minute my 3 year old put on this shoe, she said "soft!" The shoe also looks great with a dress or shorts.

Leather Sandals Hard to Find - My daughter is 15 months old & I prefer her to wear leather sandals. I don't want to where synthetic shoes in the summer & decided she didn't want to either. These sandals are great! They can be casual or worn with her church dresses. She did get some red spots around her ankle from rubbing. Also, the top section that crosses over the toes is really squishy. I was able to stretch the leather a little in order to squeeze her chubby foot into it. They will stretch.

Incredible - My 2-year-old granddaughter absolutely fell in love with the sandals. Everytime she leaves the house, she asks for her sandals. They are wonderful! Easy to put on, she KEEPS them on (unlike most shoes we put on her) and they are durable and easy to clean for the next wear!Thank you, thank you, thank you...

Brands I'd also recommend: Just check Zappos online, that's the best bet!

One of the best sandals for kids ever - My daughter LOVES these sandals and they are indestructible! She has worn them in the ocean and then to church the next day- and they look as good now as they did a season ago. She is particular about comfort (what child isn't?) and wore no other shoe nearly all last summer. An excellent value.

Saltwater Sandals for Toddlers - Great durable sandals for a toddler. They could use a little more cushion in the insole, but most toddler sandals do not have this.

Nice little sandals!! I bought these sandals in fuchsia for my daughter, I like them they for a child, they are not too much. I was worried about the sandals not being comfortable around the ankle but she likes to wear them and she never complains about.
