Withstanding great pressure from friends and family, I resisted the Croc cult for years. I now understand the hype - these sandals are great.I purchased them a week before a month-long trip to Thailand. My intention was to use them as shower shoes. I packed 2 pairs of shoes, 1 pair of flip-flops and these Crocs along on the trip.It was rainy season, therefore the weather each day was very wet, hot and humid. I don't believe I wore any other shoes the entire time I was there.I generally wear a women's 10-10.5 and the 10 was perfect. They were wide fitting in the toe area, but not sloppy. The little grippy bumps on the soles helped them stay on my feet walking through rainy streets and even into a river, but it was some of the public toilets in the rural areas in Thailand that solidified my new love and appreciation for Crocs (or any shoes that are waterproof and easily hosed off).These are very light and comfortable, kind of cute, reasonably priced and have enough arch support to wear every day.I would definitely purchase these again.I have a brown pair of these I got a few years back from a shoe store. I paid about $40 for them. These do not seem like they are 'exactly' the same; but I'm sure Croc's did minor updates to them. My old pair is more comfortable and I like the appearance of my foot in the shoe better with the old ones. These are simply a tad longer (so my toes don't go all the way down to the end at the front of shoe), but they're 95% the same; and the price was GREAT, ($27.25). And I love that I have a navy pair. They're so light weight, and I can wear all day without any heel pain. No Regrets!I have another pair in blue with white soles (that get dirty so quickly) and needed a black pair for the beach. These are perfect, and as expected - but I went online to get more sandals and see they are discontinuing all the ladies good looking crocs and selling only the big round ones. BAD IDEA crocs!!!I have been needing a different type shoe for quite a while. I used to wear Birkenstocks but they started bothering my back. I go barefoot around the house all the time and the change to the shoes was too much. These Croc sandals are not thick soled. There is enough sole to cushion your foot, but you still feel like barefoot comfort. The sandals are cute and there are enough straps to hold them on.I am usually a "between the toes" girl, but I wanted some sandals that I could wear socks with while playing in the yard. these fit the bill, and I could keep them on my feet without my toes having to hold on. plus they are really cuteI have narrow feet and cleo were a perfect fit for me but hard to find. these are a bit weird, too wide at the upper part of the shoe (toes) and a bit too long, and narrower at the lower, but still okPinky toe on left foot was tight when wore without socks. But I need wide toe box for most shoes. Didn’t bother much. Wore them on trip for over month as recovery sandal and worked greatI purchased a pair of tan Kadee sandals and wore them on a trip to Bangkok. They were so wonderful (especially when we got caught in a downpour, other sandals would have been ruined) that I decided I wanted a black pair also. I’d never purchased Croc’s before because I don’t like how clunky they look, but these are different, they’re slim and nice looking. Love how easy they slip on, they’re so comfortable it’s almost like going barefoot. Will definitely purchase again!OK, it is three years since I bought my last pair of Crocs Sandals. The last pair are still really good, but I liked the look of this pretty pink.The fit of this sandal for me is wide at the toe end, and it is a generous fit on my UK 6 feet. I am an average width.I also feel that the sole is thinner, and for me, this makes the front end of the shoe catch on paving slabs - it feels a bit flappy.The quality does not seem so good, and I wish now that I had returned straight away, rather than thinking I will 'give them a try'....The quality these shoes will make me wary about future purchases., which is a shame as I have been a fan for years.Delivery was prompt.I wanted a comfortable pair of sandals to use indoors. It had to be waterproof so I could use it right after a shower, to have a good grip as I am always carrying my newborn, and to allow me to wear socks when it is cold. As I chose the white model (I guess not many people wanted it as it would get too dirty outside - while indoors it is perfect) the price was further reduced. This is exactly what I wanted, for what I wanted and I have been using it every day. It is much better than flip flops, which felt unsafe when I went down the stairs with my baby, even more so when I hady socks on. I am very happy with my purchase.Firstly, I ordered my correct size 5 but they seemed a bit too small and uncomfortable so I exchanged them for the next size up.This was still the case. They're not easy to slip on and off the plastic material make it hard fir this, so you have to struggle with your feet and move the top bits around to get your foot sat in it comfortably.I walked around the house in them for about 10 minutes and my feet got a little sweaty and irritable - I think this is due to the plastic material they're made from and I didn't find them very comfortable.I must have about 10 pairs of Crocs... evidence that I'm usually a very satisfied buyer. But this latest pair just don't feel like the real McCoy. They are exceptionally lightweight - almost like the packaging material for something breakable. Then the soles: they're so flimsy/flexible they bend backwards underneath your toes if you brush a stair or obstacle. A real trip hazard. In short, they don't provide that ideal combination of comfort underfoot with toughness of the sole. Walking the cliffs as I do in all my other pairs, I don't feel individual rocks poking through. With this pair, I do. They just don't feel as robust as we've all come to expect of Crocs. I see this pair is made in Vietnam: is that the norm? Please, Crocs: can you look at reordering stocks of Cleo open toe sandals, Serena sandals and women's Sexi Flips? I've been trying to re-order all summer. Thousands of 4/5 star reviews suggest it would be more than worth the effort. And please - don't cut corners on quality!Very comfy to wear. Great for around the house, in the garden, walking down to the beach and wearing to get in and out of the sea. Waterproof, soft, durable and fit really well. Will last for a long time too?
