Customer Reviews Salt Water Sandal by Hoy Shoes Salt Water Original Sandals (big Kid)

The sandal is beautiful in the rose gold. I have not purchased Hoys in many years. They have always held up so well, and they stood up to water true to their word. I'm hoping that hasn't changed. My younger daughter is a medium width. I purchased a women's 8 so that she has growing room (she still fits in a 7, but barely). The 8 is big on her, but it is secure on her foot. I am not sure if we will keep this style, simply because my daughter is not sure about the "swirl" on top of the foot where the leather meets. Right out of the box, she feels a slight pressure, and she is worried that it will be uncomfortable. I am confident that it will soften based on our past experience, but that may not be enough to convince her to wear them. I have just ordered the Retro style to compare.

I’ve been wearing a size 6 to 6 1/2 in shoes and the size 6 in these fit perfectly. The 7 felt too floppy. They are very comfortable. I’ve even worn them to amusement parks.

Nicely adjustable to fit feet! Will go with everything.

These were for my 11yo daughter and she LOVES them. Even better, I needed sandals. to match a dress last-minute, and was stressing out when my daughter said, try wearing my new sandals, Mom! I loved them and they were super comfortable standing up for 4-5 hours. However, I would not own a pair because my feet hurt later (I have lots of back and feet issues). But I'm thrilled my daughter loves them and that I can borrow them occasionally. They are super cute and go with so much in the rose gold!

I love these sandals! I remember wearing these as a girl, but it hadn’t occurred to me that women can wear them until I saw them featured in the current Martha Stewart Living magazine. I purchased tan, which is classic, but might get a pair in olive too:)

I LoVe these sandals!! Super cute! I typically wear a size 9, but after reading other reviews I decided to order a size up. I’m sure glad that I did because the 10’s in this sandal fit like a size 9. Also similar to other reviews, these are a tad narrow. I have a more narrow foot, so they are still comfortable for me. So, my recommendation would be to order the next size bigger than you normally wear and be prepared for a narrow shoe.

These fit exactly right! I wear my regular size 7. They are comfortable right out of the box. I only wish there were more styles for adults.

Love these old school sandals! My daughters wore these for years when they were little, and now it’s my turn. :) The sizing is a bit weird, but Zappos has made it easy as long as you follow their size recommendation chart. Love these! I’m a 7 and got the kids 5 that says it’s a women’s 7. My toes definitely come to the end, but they fit great!

These are wonderful sandals. I bought them for my (adult) daughter and she couldn't be happier. She ALWAYS wears a woman's size 10, and these sandals, in a 10, were too small. We knew they would stretch out eventually, but the length was a little short, so we ordered an 11. I couldn't imagine they would fit, but they do, perfectly. She will enjoy wearing these for many years.

I wear a size 71/2-8. After reading reviews I originally ordered a size 6 but returned them because they were too small. I got a size 7 & they’re perfect.

These are the ultimate summer sandal! After many wears they still look brand new!

Can never go wrong with this classic

I grew up wearing salt water sandals in the PNW. My girls have the same love and they both have several pair. Very durable, comfortable and a simple style sandal that go with just about everything. I always highly recommend these.

Go to sandal for the summer. Perfect fit and lots of style. Can be dressed up or down. Great comfort and durability! Closet staple for sure!

Who doesn't love a red shoe? Perfect for Spring and Summer. I wear these in the water and sometimes into the pool to protect the bottoms of my feet. The color does not fade and the sandal is handmade with great quality. Will by Salt Water year after year. One last thing, shoe holds its value if you ever want to re-sell.

I have bought a pair of these each summer. They fit well and hold up nice. They run true to size. Definitely going to order more.

Super cute sandals! I've been wanting them for a while & Zappos happened to have a really good sale on them recently. I'm a true 7, and the big kids size 5 worked great. They do not really have arch support, but still seem very comfortable.

These are a classic for a reason — simple, comfortable, functional and attractive. In terms of doing, I usually wear US 7.5 (very occasionally US 8) and always take EU 38. The size 6 I ordered fits well with about 1/4th of an inch to spare at the toe and 1/8th of an inch at the heel. I have narrow heels and can slip these on and off without unbuckling them.

These are great sandals. Well made, comfy and cute. They were delivered to the wrong house (someone on my street most likely) and customer service was amazing. Shipped a new pair right away and got them quickly. Happy happy happy.

I had several pairs as a child and I was so excited that they carried them in my size as an adult! The fit was true and the wear was comfortable, but due to the fact that they are super flat and have zero arch support I will limit my wear. Overall, they are a great nostalgic shoe.

I’m a true size 7 Women. My feet are not narrow or wide. I followed the size recommendations per chart and it was accurate. Comfortable and stylish. I didn’t need to break them in per box instructions. The gold color is subtle, not screaming gold. Perfect for any outfit. I’ll be purchasing a different color next time.

So many people have addressed the fit that I'll just stick with how incredible these sandals look and feel. Although they have no real support, they are extremely comfortable. They look great on, with dresses or pants or shorts, and magically work with many styles. They hide my bunion without hurting it at all. I'll be buying more colors in this shoe, something I typically don't do. Wonderful shoe, great price, classic look!

Great sandals. They tend to run small so order a size up for the perfect fit. Plan to order in different colors!

I love these sandals. I was skeptical at first, but they are some of the most comfortable sandals I own. The sizing is strange, so be sure to do your research when ordering. I wear mine nearly every day and they still look brand new. I ordered brown, but will plan to order a second pair in black.

Great fit and style. Buying other colors!
