I loved wearing these as a kid, but they have not been available in stores for some years. I did a quick search and sure enough I found them here. I found them to be true to size and still just as comfortable as ever.

I've worn saltwaters every summer since I can remember. The last pair I bought lasted 7 years of near constant wear. If only more retailers carried adult sizes.

So disappointed, I have brown ones in the same exact size and the red ones are actually smaller. Sizing is inconsistent.

Very small for a nine. I really needed to get a wider show. Really like style and color.

Not great for gravel walking. Scuffs up the soles easily.

I purchased 2 pair in different colors but returned the Rose Gold because the left shoe was too tight. I’ve had 2 surgeries on both feet (not a bunion but the same joint) in the past 18 months and the doctor now wants to put an artificial joint in each foot if that gives you an idea of how bad my feet are. I’m completely shocked that I can walk in them and they don’t bother my feet. There is NO arch support at all and I don’t usually wear flat shoes with no cushion but they fit great because they are wide enough at the big toe joint that they don’t hurt. I’m going to wear them this summer to make sure they are comfy all day walking in the heat and then I’ll order another color.

Love these. Own multiple pairs. You will not regret buying these. Classic style that wears well and lasts forever. Just pay attention to the size chart and order your normal size.

I am very disappointed with this purchase. After read all the good reviews, I got encouraged to try it. No, it is not comfortable at all.

These sandals are big on style. I loved the look. When I got them I realized they have flat soles and no support or cushion. It was like walking on concrete. On my left foot where the strap meets the sole there was a large lump which really hurt. I was saddened I could not wear these sandals. They look amazing.

The rose gold on the straps was very very very bright and ultimately not comfortable for my daughter!

We love the way these sandals look, but they are so low -- the space between the sole and the straps, essentially -- made these impossible for my daughter to even get on. She does not have thick feet, but she could not slide her foot into the sandal as the straps were too low for her to do so. Not sure ordering up a size will make any difference, but we may try. Very disappointed.

Criminal organisation. Don't buy here. Ordered shoes, but returned the shoes. They admitted the warehouse is a mess and they lost the shoes, but refuse to refund the money.

The fit and size are true. I like how I get what I need from the shoe by wearing them in water and letting them dry while wearing them. They look so cute with anything I chose to wear in the summer

Super cute. I have three pairs. Not the best comfort level as they are extremely flat.

The rose gold color is beautiful! The top strap was uncomfortable so I exchanged for the Hoy Shoes Boardwalk sandal with two adjustable straps.

I have now had these shoes for four or five years. They still look like new, yet I wear them incredibly often during the summer. They have been to the beach, been worn in the rain, yet they still hold up amazingly well. They are also incredibly comfortable, which is remarkable for a flat shoe. I can take long walks without issue in these. Last - but not least - they are super cute; I never fail to get compliments on them and am constantly asked where I got them. When I think about the amount of wear and pleasure I have gotten out of these shoes (and that they only cost me forty dollars) I have to conclude this has been one of the best, most satisfying and worthwhile shoe purchases I have ever made. If this style is what you're looking for (especially the red), I would not hesitate!

Love salt waters because the leather is water proof and they are so durable. Can be handed down many times.

I love them and get many compliments on them! I don’t like a lot of arch support so these were perfect and I was thrilled to find a navy sandal.
