Customer Reviews Chooka Solid Duck Skimmer

Cute and functional

Perfect for keeping as a backup in your purse for when it rains and you don't want to ruin your regular shoes!

Ordered in 8 and 9, I'm usually an 8.5 or 9. The 9s were enormous, I kept the 8s. They're perfect for warm rainy days when you don't want to wear your wellies, but you don't want to ruin your leather flats.

To confuse you! Two previous reviews said the shoe ran big. I wear an 8 1/2. I ordered an 8 and a 9. The 8 was too short - toe touching, and the 9 is perfect. A tiny bit wide; my feet are on the narrow side. I have put a liner in them, and they are very comfortable. I wear ballet flats all the time, so I'm used to little support. I'm very pleased.

I normally wear size 8.5. I ordered size 9 and it fit perfect. Still have enough room to wear with or without socks. Really cute shoes and perfect for a rainy day.

These are my new favorite shoes. Perfect! Who would've thunk it? Gum shoes for around the house? But they are! Very comfortable, I've worn them all day. Look great with rolled up jeans, or office khakis. I normally wear a 6.5 but since these only come in whole sizes I bought a 6 after reading other reviews that the larger size felt wide. A half size smaller was the perfect choice for me. These have a lot of give and conform to your foot right away. I don't have any trouble with rubbing at the heel. I love the turquoise at this price I may buy another pair. So many colors!!! I have a garden and walk a dog in all weather. These will keep feet dry and still look and feel great for running errands. Zappos got these to my door the next day.

I have had lots of complements on these cute shoes. They only come in whole sizes so I got an 8 for my 7.5 size feet. They seem rather large width wise. I think it's because the sides don't have much structure. But I do love them and wear them around the house and yard a lot. So easy to slip into. Not the best for long walks though.

These little skimmers need to be in every gal's closet. They are the perfect spring/summer rainy day accessory! Waterproof and comfy and very stylish. Want more colors!

Has a manufacturer's defect in the collar of the shoe that rubs the heel when walking. Otherwise it is a great rain shoe with style. Hope you pull it from stock.

I ordered these a couple of days before I was scheduled to make a trip to Chicago from Southern California. They were perfect for the rainy, cold weather. Kept my feet warm and dry. Zappos service was excellent (as usual) - they arrived the evening before my departure! I have bunions and the vamp of the shoe was high enough to cover the bunions and did not rub on them. The leather insole and leather trim made the shoes very comfortable to wear. They look cute with jeans. I am very happy I ordered them.

I LOVE these cute little duck feet! I bought them to go to Scotland where it will be damp but did not want to have to pack big boots so these should be perfect. Already tried them out in some smallish puddles and they are fine. I did buy some arch support insert though which fit perfectly. They do not seem to cook my feet at all even though they are rubber - but then it its still winterish here. They pack down to almost nothing in a suitcase and I just love the navy blue color - very cute with jeans. Will work well with a short skirt at night too. I may not want to wear them ALL day touring but for when its damp - just pull out of my pack and slip them on.

I absolutely adore these shoes and I've received so many compliments on them! They're practical and fashionable - you can't ask for much more! Not intended for deeper puddles of course - the lining is leather I believe.

I have had this Solid Duck Shoes before .... but in NAVY! They did not come in Navy ... only Black. So I ordered the Black/Tan Sole anyway. Love that they can get wet & my feet stay dry. I wear them when I walk my dog!! Only disappointment was how UNEVEN the tan sole was attached to the upper black shoe!! They get a medium rating for that!! But I Love everything else about them & they serve my purpose well!!!

These shoes were so cute. However, they were way too wide for me, especially in the heel. I normally wear a B width shoe. If the shoe comes in a Narrow width, I will re-order. But this pair has to be returned.

Runs small, but so cute! Order up a size if you’re in any doubt of fit. I usually wear an 8, but that size was uncomfortably snug even without socks. I exchanged for a nine, and ended up switching out the insoles with some thicker ones to make up for them being too big. An 8.5 would have been perfect if they made them in half sizes. You will definitely need some sort of sock if you plan to walk long distances in them. I got a compliment on these from a complete stranger the first time I wore them. I don’t think they’ll be great for snowy days, but they’re great for a rainy day, and offer more flexibility for outfits than boots or booties. These won’t completely replace my old lace up duck boots, but they’ll give me a nice slip-on alternative.

These do not run small order your regular size!!!!!

I normally wear an 8 1/2. I love the look of this shoe.....but the 8 is a little too small, and the 9 is a little to big. Sadly, I will be returning both pair.

Ordered these for when I pick up my boys from school and it’s raining. I’d rather wear these than ruining my leather shoes in the rain. These look better than having to wear chunky looking rain boots. They are not comfy for long walks because they do not have any arch.

Materials seem nice, not very cushy though. Didn't get to test them in the rain because I ordered a 10 (thinking I would need to size down since it's a boot brand) but needed an 11, which is sold out.

The Chooka Skimmer is a good shoe for what I wanted--a easy slip on to dash in and out during rainy times that was comfortable. It seems to run a bit small. I wear a 9 which I ordered first and exchanged for a 10. I added an arch cushion gel sole and they fit perfect. While there is little arch support, I wouldn't wear them all day. But for running a few errands or a bit of yard work in the rain, they are perfect keeping my feet dry and cozy. I couldn't wear the Bogs because they were to tight over the top of my foot...

I got these today and was so excited to see how cute they are! Unfortunately they are too big and I will be returning them. I wear and 8.5 and they only come in whole sizes. The 8 would have been too small and the nine slips off my heel as soon as I pick up the foot. They are probably perfect for someone who wears a whole size.
