Customer Reviews Sanuk Chiba

Bought these for my dad as a birthday present. He is a solid 10, and he couldn't get them on. 11 fit great. Order one size up.

I might have missed this in the product description but these Sanuk's have a thin felt like liner in them preventing them from breathing as well. They are perfect if you live in a colder region but will definitely be putting them away when it gets warmer out. Also, the sole felt a bit more stiff and plastic than what I've come to expect from Sanuk. Fit was true to size.

This is my third pair of Sanuk "sandals"...they are the most comfortable shoes on this earth. However, this particular model has a lower back than the others which feels a bit odd as you feel like you should be hiking up to back. After a while, you get used to it. Order a slightly larger size as they run small.

The Chiba's fit a little snug even though I got the size that I normally wear. The reason why returned them was the uncomfortable stitching in the back of the shoe that was irritating my heel through the socks. Most Sanuks are pretty comfortable except for these. I'll try my hand with the Vagabonds instead.

Third pair of Sanuk's I own and for comfort and just a great very casual shoe they can't be beat. Perfect for warmer weather and look great with jeans or shorts. Comfort is what these shoes are about just don't try and dress them up.

These shoes have become my go to for work, hanging out with friends, or just going out and about. From reading other reviews I was really expecting a lot in terms of comfort. I must admit I was not all that impressed when I first slipped them on. However, after a few days I noticed my feet didn't hurt after work and that they really break in nicely. I recommend if you have to wear them for a long time, wear them with a decent pair of socks. The main reason for this is that these shoes don't breathe well, your feet will get hot if it is warm outside and if you are active, the insides will get sweaty and the sole will get slimy. Socks also make the shoes feel magically more comfortable. Not sure why that is, just try it. I've gotten mixed reviews from people about how they look. My mom said they looked like hippie bedroom slippers. I might agree with her, but I think they look really great with any type of cargo pants. They are wider than your average shoe which is perfect for me because I have paddle feet. Overall I highly recommend this shoe/sandal for its comfort, ease of use, and its lightness and flexibility.
