Customer Reviews Crocs Swiftwater Sandal

Great outdoor shoe. These shoes are very light, yet seem durable. They are not as cushy as your typical Crocs. After you get use to that, they feel extra supportive to your feet. They are a little narrow compared to other Crocs. They are much lighter, easier to put on, and cheaper than on old pair of Keens I have. Only improvement would be to give them a little m ore cushion like other Crocs.

These are true to size and fit comfortably and the adjustable strap gives a perfect fit. My only gripe is that using these in the water as water shoes, they filled up with sand, which got trapped inside. Even after rinsing and drying them, I banged them out and sand kept coming and coming. Sand gets trapped in the nooks and crannies. Other than that, they're great.

NOT THAN I EXPECTED. NEXT PURCHASE WILL BE THE CLASIC CROCS

Needs more room in the toe area

Needs more toe room

The good - comfy and great water shoe at a low price with discount The bad - very slippery on wet surfaces Be Careful where you walk

I can't rate this as I had to exchange a size 10 for a 9.

I like the overall concept of the sandal but...the right sandal's back strap is out of "shape" and slides down the heel and is very annoying - like it's been crumpled or packaged wrongly. So...not enjoying them as much as I would like.

The size 10 is too big for my "normally" 9.5 size foot so I sent them back and got a size 9. Much better. Do wish they came in half sizes.

This is the 4th pair that I have bought, but they are bigger than the last 3 pairs! I know that my foot did not shrink! I've loved these shoes since I bough my first pair in Hawaii. Unfortunately the 2nd and 3rd pairs had a sharp something that cut and scratched my upper foot and I have to wear socks with both pairs. The new pair are so big that I have not tried them without socks yet. I'm hopeful though.

I was disappointed with my last Swiftwater Mesh Deck Sandals. Seems they have cheapened them now with different fabrics on part of these sandals, yet continue to charge highest price for them. I ordered the all black with the gray trim. Instead of the fabric maintaining their color as previous pairs before, these change from black/gray to black/beige. They used spray paint on the trim that was gray instead of fabric that was really gray and when water hit them, all the trimming turned to a light beige. If I wanted beige I would have ordered a lighter color. Also unlike my previous 4 pairs, the adjustable closure strap is very loose now. They stretched due to the inferior materials used now. So they slip off my feet now, no longer secure. Please go back to the real colored materials and threads used in the past and not spray painted fabric. Go back to the better fabric so the sandal remain supportive.

I have wide feet and normally wear 10.5 E shoes. Since Crocs only sells whole sizes in medium width, I had to settle for size 12s. They will probably be ok in the winter with my Wigwam socks on, but for the rest of the year I normally do not wear socks. We shall see what happens...

I bought a pair of specialist II clogs and this pair of sandals at the same time. The foot bed on these is surprisingly like a running shoe. In fact, I'm certain that I could run a reasonable distance in these if necessary. The upper is comfortable, but I find that where the upper meets the foot bed at the distal/medial side, it rubs a hot spot (pre-blister) on my left foot. Perhaps it is my own anatomy, or perhaps it is construction. I am hoping that after some "break in" it will be comfortable all round.

The left shoe strap is not long enough for my foot. I like the shoe but i have to wear socks to keep the left one from being very loose. I am thinking of sending them back

I'm size 9.5 and I should have asked for a size 10 FIT. They are confortable.

It is rather too flimsy....not that well built, and throught it might have been more sturdy. I am quite dissapointed in the way it was constructed and how this product was listed- there is some deception in advertizing.

This is my second pair of Swiftwater sandals. The first pair are 2+ years and barely show any wear. I use them for all outdoor activities, in and out of water. Very comfortable, durable. You can even run in them, unlike some other Crocs. If you're active outdoors these are a great alternative to other outdoor sandals.

Quick delivery. I bought them for a cruise through the Galapagos. I selected this style specifically for the toe protection because I planned to wear them during our wet landings on sandy and rocky beaches. I mail ordered the sandals and did not have the opportunity to try them on prior to purchase. I gave the product 3 stars for the following reasons; 1) prior to the trip I wore them around the house to break them in and to see how they fit. The first issue was the high arch molded into the sole that slightly bothered me since I don't have a high arch. 2) I noticed that the upper mesh material was a bit tight and rubbed the side of my foot near the base of the big toe. 3) while hiking during my trip, the rubbing issues were amplified when the mesh got wet and when sand would get trapped in the sandals leading to a sore/blister at that spot. 4) I also had an issue with sand and small gravel getting trapped in the sandal which made it painful to walk on. Unlike normal open sandals where you can shake out the debris the closed toe design made that almost impossible. I often had to take the sandals off to clear the debris. What I liked about the sandals; 1) the toe protection saved my toes a number of time when I hit rocks and lava along the hiking trails. 2) the sandals dried quickly. 3) the are very light. I think they would be ideal for the beach to get from the hotel to the water but not really good for long walks/hikes because of the rubbing issues and the fact that material will get trapped between the bottom of your floor and the sole of the sandal.

A bit more difficult to get into than reg. Crocs.

I plan to return due to the fit. I ordered size 9 (my shoe size is 9.5) but these crocs are too large.

They seem like a great design, but they're huge in the toe area. I've never had issues with shoe sizes (I'm always a 10), but this one gets really wide up front. I've got a half-inch extra on the side, and an extra inch in front. Whose feet are shaped like that? I really wish there were half sizes. That said, I love the way they hug the foot - they're really comfortable - so I'm still giving a positive review.

great shoe, and it fits one foot - my husband had surgery on his other foot and we can't find a shoe like this big enough - how can I get one in a size 15 wide or a 16???

As much as loved the style, design and overall feel of the shoe, I had to return them because I'm flat-footed...and the arch (in the heel) made them uncomfortable to walk in. Sorry.

bad fit
