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

Every summer we purchase Salt water sandals for our daughters, they just love them. They say that they are very comfortable.

Great shoes. Wore them as a kid and still a good choice as an adult. A little more expensive to buy through Zappos rather than Amazon but Zappos had color choice.

So comfortable - I got them a size too big since I'm pregnant and my feet will probably be swelling a lot this summer, and while they have plenty of room, they don't look like they are too big.

Just got these today - whoa, that's some fast delivery, Zappos! Love them. I'm already thinking about the next color I should order. Because I usually wear a 8 1/2, I first ordered a 9, thinking I was playing it safe. Wrong. Had to return, but the 8 is perfect. (The box they came in has a little sticker inside that says "should not be oversized when fitted.") Thank goodness for Zappos' incredible return policy.

These are my favorite summer sandals of all time. They are very comfortable and go with everything I own. The leather is very soft and only gets better each time I wear them.

I love these sandals. They take me a few wears to break in, and then are the most comfortable and versatile summer shoes I have. I love that I can wear them in the rain and they dry out no worse for the wear. This is my second pair, and I could see myself collecting even more colors!

I love these sandals! I purchased these to wear to a beach vacation, and they have since become my go-to shoes for the summer. They are casual, yet nice enough looking to wear to work if you're office isn't too formal. I wore these in and out of the ocean with no problems; the water and sand didn't seem to damage them in the slightest. The sole of the shoe is pancake flat, so you don't want to wear these if you have to walk too far. That said, at work I have about a 10 minute walk to and from my car and a walk of that distance doesn't bother me. I almost always wear a women's size 8.5, and since these shoes only come in full sizes went with the 9. The straps fit just right, although they have loosed a little since I first got them. But I suspect if I would have gone with the 8 my toes would have gone over the end of the sole. Just as a funny aside, I showed these to my mom after I bought them and she said she used to buy them for me every summer when I was little. I thought they looked familiar!

They are my favorite sandals due to the style the straps criss cross, too cute. And my 2nd pair in the Tan color. I usually wear a Womens US 10-11 in shoes. I got a Womens US 10 and the length and the width of the shoes work for me. I don't have super skinny or chunky feet. There isn't much support at all, but the soles and overall build of the sandals are super durable. I love how easy they are to slip on and off, I don't even bother with the buckle to put them on. The soles do have some grip to them, even on a rainy day. Overtime, I do notice if you stretch the straps a lot while putting the shoe on and off, the Tan painted on "leather" coating does flake and peel off. The base leather used is a cheap ugly gray color. There's that, as long as you keep that coating on, you're good.

Fit well, felt good, looked cute. But not supportive for long walks or standing

Love these shoes, but the patient leather gets marked up so easy! A warm damp cloth usually gets them off, but they get dirty every time I wear them.

I received this item “broken” and not in the original manufacturer’s box

I wear a 6 1/2 in most shoes and a 7 in running shoes. I ordered the 6 and it fit in length perfectly. BUT...the width around the top of the foot is very narrow. I did get my foot in and they felt looser in a few minutes. These are made of real leather and are very very squeaky across the top. You know that leather kind of crunchy squeaky, that's why I am returning...too noisy.

If you have an arch, these sandals are not for you. I could barely put my feet into the sandals and the front of the sandal cut into my skin, and yet the foot of the sandal was super long. I really wanted to keep them but the fit was completely off. They are going back.

Great Looking Sandals!

These were stiff to begin, and I was concerned they’d rub a blister. Within a very short time they softened and are quite comfortable. I wore them all day today and didn’t need the spare shoes I brought along just in case. I love the navy color!

It's a cute sandal, they run small. I normally wear a size 9 and I had to go up a size. I noticed they are also wide around the opening. They are flat, but very comfortable.

I really want to love these. I love the retro vibe and fun colors. But the stitching along the edge is so hard and uncomfortable. It rubs on the bottom of my toes and I know I’d have a blister if I wore them for any length of time. I even went up a size to give me more room in the front, but the stitching was still rubbing. Sadly, they had to go back.

I love the comfort and look of these sandals. I also love that they are made for getting wet. I am however disappointed in the buckle. It is very cheap and I’m not sure how long it will hold up. For the price of these sandals, I thought they’d be better quality.

I’m between 8 and 8.5 in sandals, and the 8 in these was def too short! My feet are medium width but low volume and the straps were a good size for me.

I have an older salt water sandal, same model, same size, different color. Comparing the two, the older one is like 1/4 inch bigger, and it was never so snug, even when new. The new one I just bought just fits, but maybe next time I’ll go one size up

I picked them out for my wife. She was happy. They fit and for perfectly. I am happy.

Love the fuchsia/magenta color! Received lots of compliments on them. Salt Water Sandals stand the test of time. Finally wore out my white ones that I purchased when my daughters were toddlers so mom & girls had matching shoes... over 17 years ago. Great quality.

The leather was really sharp underneath and I felt them rubbing the tops of my feet. I'm sure this goes away over time but I'm not interested in suffering a lot of cuts for them. Adorable and look to be good quality, but they went back.

I'm in love. They are so cute on my feet, I usually buy these only for my daughter, glad I bought myself a pair

It was a felt true to size.And the color was great Navy
