Reviews
I got these because I
"I got these because I needed a waterproof sandal with a slight heel to wear to theme parks this summer. I don't like tevas and find them uncomfortable, but these were perfect. I wore them on the treadmill for a few miles to be sure they would last the long, sweaty walks thru Universal parks in FL and found that there is a little bit of grab over the top of the foot. I attached some moleskin strips to the spots that might rub and had no problems whatsoever. I wore them for 3 days in a row clocking 25k steps each day and my feel were tired at the end of the day, but not sore or achy at all. These are now my summer go-to casual sandals for when I know I will be facing potentially wet conditions in the summer heat. They are a little industrial looking, but cute enough to wear with shorts and skorts. The top cross strap helped keep them from moving around and held them in place securely."

I want to love them
"If this review was solely based on comfort it would be 5 stars however the quality and durability bring the review down to 1 star. I’ve had these shoes longer than 30 days otherwise I’d return. I didn’t start wearing them when I received them. I’ve worn them a total of 5 times, they have never been wet and they have started to peel. So to me they are definitely not worth the cost. There are other comfort brands out there."

I have flat feet and
"I have flat feet and need substantial support. Was disappointed this shoe didn't have more. It's a comfortable shoe when I first put it on, but my feet tire in it quickly. Will use it as a swim shoe, but it's nothing to live in."

These sandals are comfy and
"These sandals are comfy and supportive. I most like the adjustability of the straps. I dont have bunions but feel these would work well for that condition because of the strap placement. My only wish is that more stores carried Aetrex products so I did not need to order online."

So comfortable- I can walk
"So comfortable- I can walk in them all day. Lots of cushion yet still excellent support. I found they ran a little big and needed a 38 instead of a 39. I get lots of compliments and have had many friends order them."

(1) Shoe runs large; (2)
"(1) Shoe runs large; (2) the upper strap across the ankle is all one strap - connected to the lower angled strap and the more I wear it the upper strap digs into my foot which leaves a deep indentation. During the summer months (heat) my feet swell some. Anyway, these have been a big disappointment. Bought them on sale, so I can't return them - but then they're "used" now as I've tried to wear them some over the last 2 weeks. If I could lock the lower cross strap in place, then the top one would have a looser fit. Not sure how I could permanently stop the tugging - have tried to think of ways."

Comfy and cute
"I really liked this shoe, it was comfortable, well made, and had great arch support. However, even though it was adjustable, it was still too wide for my narrow foot, which was very disappointing. I will be returning these, but still give them a 5 star rating as the issue is not with the shoe, it is with my narrow foot. I own four other pair of Aetrex shoes, which fit well and are very comfortable, so I'm sure I will continue to purchase more in the future."

They look great and are
"They look great and are well made of quality materials. Unfortunately, I can't wear them because the strap that crosses over the foot from ankle to toe is very loose and not adjustable. It is attached separate from the two adjustable straps."

Very cute but caused blisters
"I love Aetrex and have purchased many shoes from this brand with great success. This is my first time to be disappointed as I have blisters on the insides of both feet where the plastic strap guide is located after wearing them for only 15 minutes. The shoes are very cute and comfortable otherwise, but I won’t be able to wear these without bandaids."

I really like this sandal!!
"I really like this sandal!! It seems to have good arch support!! I’ve noticed some of the newer sandals don’t have adjustable straps and the quality of the insole is not as good!! It makes me sad since I love Aetrex shoes and insoles‼️🙁"
