Customer Reviews Aetrex Maui Flip

I struggle with plantar fasciitis and a compressed nerve in one foot, this style Aetrex flip flop is one of the few shoes that allows me to walk almost pain free and without a limp! I have a wide forefoot, narrow heel and high arch. These flip flops have great arch support, much better than the Oofos brand flip flops! The reason for four stars is because of the discrepancy in sizing! I have ordered several pairs of these in different colors, but all size 10's. Two pairs were quite large and fit more like an 11, and one pair was extremely small to the point of my heel hanging off the back, fit was more like a 9! I actually rechecked sizes on all of these to make sure they were 10's and that I hadn't ordered incorrectly. They were all size 10, so sadly I had to send back all of the pretty colors and only was able to keep the gray pair since that pair fit like I would expect a size 10 to fit. If the sizing had been more accurate I would have kept all of the colors because the comfort for me was worth the price and I would have liked to have a variety of colors for summer! Do yourself a favor and order several pair/colors in the same size, hopefully something will work for you! Five stars to Zappos for their free shipping and returns and customer service!

I have Achilles tendonitis and bought these flip-flops with that in mind. They are great and I can wear them all day long! They are very comfortable and provide relief to my heel pain from the tendonitis. I am unable to bend the shoe at the arch - a requirement for Achilles tendonitis - so they offer great support. I have had them for about a month now and have worn them a lot. I am noticing that when I walk, the left front of the shoe sometimes gets caught on the floor. Sounds weird I know, but that is what is happening. It is like the space between the thong and the front of the shoe has gotten stretched out. This is why I have given it a four star overall. Also on the style, the blue is a little bright for me but I am still wearing them!

I love these shoes! I feel like I am walking on air! I have a rare form of arthritis, and really struggle with my back, hips, legs, feet, etc. I can walk in these shoes all day without issue. They help align my body to walk properly, and relieve the stress from my knees and hips. I bought these while traveling and have since bought them for my husband and mother - they are terrific!

I liked these put arch was just too high.

I where an 8.5. and I was unsure whether to size up or down as they only come in whole sizes. I sized down because other AETREX have run large on me, but I should have sized up to a 9.

I was deeply disappointed in the changes for this flip flop. I bought a pair in 2019 for Plantar Facsiaitis and still have them...but needed to replace. The shoe bed is wider and has changed its design. It no longer works for me. I'm glad it is working for others... but the new design does not help my PF at all!

I love these sandals! They are remarkably comfortable. However, after 8 months, the bottom of the sandal has come off. The product is warrantied for 6 months. This shoe isn't a good solution for someone looking for comfortable, reliable footwear.

I wear a size 11 and when they arrived they were about a 1/4" to short

I have had several pairs of Lynco flips. I love them. This pair I didn’t like and will be returning. The fit and arch are good but the shoe is hard. Not cushy and comfortable. This is a bad change for this shoe.

I really wanted to love these, but the arch is just too high, causing me to walk oddly and my hips and knees ached. Sigh, the search for water proof flip flops with just the right amount of arch support continues....

Color was great but I'm not a fan of anything between my toes. But because a gray sandal is hard to find, I thought I'd try this. Area between my toes rubbed so I knew that wasn't going to be good for wearing all day. The arch support was very uncomfortable - just too hard and high. Sorry it didn't work out. May be good for others though.

non adjustable strap was too large

not flip flop as shown in pic- newer style- not made the same

The fit was good, but the arch was overpowering and seemed to be too much for my feet. The arch didn't exactly fit my arch. I am returning them.

Very nice arch support. Cushy foot bed. No heel cup though to stabilize my foot. Between the cushiness and no heel cup, it felt unstable and like an accident waiting to happen. That is so unfortunate because I really like them but will need to return them.

Wasn't as comfortable as I expect from Aetrex for the price. Toe post felt very large between your toes. Returned

It's an OK flipflop. Two issues: the arch support seems to be placed a bit too far back for my arch; and second, the rubber might be too much for my feet. Wearing in the house to decide.

Cool shoes but waaaay to small. I wish I could find crocs like my old thongs which were indescructible and solid and slip ons. This style is tight to get into. Take hadns to pull on. Truly not a size 9 as I ordered. Color nice. Style nice. Oh, and the ARCH is very high. Uncomfortably high, I'd say. Just, all in all, not the usual comfy fit you'd expect from crocs. Wouldn't buy again. Will return.

I want a pair of these slip-on sandals but , although I wear a 7 in Vionic sandals, I need an 8 in these. Problem is that the straps are too roomy for the length of the shoe....there's no overcoming that....Aetrex, PLEASE make this sandal in a narrow....for many people this sandal was too long but it depends on which brand you are comparing it with...that is why I mentioned the brand I am comparing it to. Right now, I am wearing the Aetrex HARPER sandal as a house shoe, plus two others of the same style for going out. I can wear the HARPER all day, every day, which is a new experience for me.... I know the Lynco Flip would have the same comfort level if the strap was a closer fit... It would be wonderful as a slipper or for wearing out. AETREX,,,,please make it in narrow!!!!! At one point I thought the 7.5 was perfect but when I ordered two more in different colors, the straps were shorter so they wouldn't work. Aetrex isn't the only brand that varies from shoe to shoe but when the fit is right, they're the best shoe, EVER, for me. Zappos is so wonderful about exchanging, there is no reason not to try different sizes!!!! LOVE ZAPPOS!!!!! e

length was right but the straps are extra, extra generous... maybe you need to have a narrow. This was an 8...In the 7, the straps were right but my heel was over the edge of the shoe...how about the length of the 8 with the straps of the 7. This is a perfect shoe for me if it fit!!! So disappointing!

I read the reviews saying these run small, so even though I normally wear an 8 I ordered a 9. The 9 was ok, they’re flip flops after all, but I feel like the 8 would have fit just fine. They seem true to size to me. They look a little wide, but they are squishy and comfortable underneath your foot with good arch support. I’m returning because the toe post is very thick and uncomfortable. Perhaps I would get used to it over time, but there are other choices out there at this price point that would be prettier and more comfortable.

The shoe was 2 sizes to small. Would have reordered, but size was too much of a guessing game. Love my other Aetrex, very disappointed.

The style and manufacture of this flip is very good. Arch seemed a bit high for me, but I might have gotten used to it. The fit was snug and short. I usually take a 7 1/2 in this style or even a 7, but the 8 in the Aetrex was too narrow and a tiny bit short. had to return and I do not want to try going up a full size. I would have tried an 8 1/2 if they had half sizes.

I have a blue pair of these in a size 10 (I’m a 10 1/2) and wore them all last summer and so far this summer. I have ordered every other color available and none of them fit the same! That’s my only complaint because they have wonderful arch support for my plantar fasciitis and are so comfortable. Maybe I’ll try ordering a size larger this year. Thank goodness Zappos is so easy to work with!!
