CrocsSwiftwater Sandal

These tough, elegant, lightweight silicone sandals allow me to enjoy the feeling of walking barefoot again like when I was a child!Their smooth silicone upper straps fit over my high arches PERFECTLY! No binding at all from upper straps that are usually either too tight or too stiff in other sandals.I wore my first pair of these sandals every Spring and Summer for 3 years in TOTAL comfort,16 hours a day, with both jeans and dresses - until one strap on one of them finally snapped in two.I was devastated! Until I recognized the exact same sandal on Amazon and found it in a Size 6. Couldn't get them in my favorite black & white color, but the navy & white looks almost identical. So, Life is GOOD again!I still have very high arches at Age 73, and these fit my feet perfectly. If one has flatter arches, they may not feel or fit as well. The straps on this new pair (across the arch) are noticeably tighter than on my older pair, however, so Crocs must have adjusted the fit for normal feet.My first pair look as good as new -- after I cleaned their white soles with bleach water and a nail brush -- after 3 years of pretty rough wear and tear. I love how they clean up so quickly after wearing them so I can go from working in the yard to going out to dinner without changing into less comfortable shoes.I usually walk around on gravel, mulch, or rocky soil all around our treed yard during the day and on HW floors inside at night. These became my favorite yard shoes because they allow me to feel the contours if the earth under my feet and to keep my balance more easily due to their very flexible soles.I actually also like wearing my cushy Hoka Recovery Sandals - mainly indoors, though. Outdoors, there's nothing like being able to sense the contours of the earth under your feet.I tried a barefoot shoe once, but they fit so tight, like a water shoe, that it was too much trouble to be worth giving them a chance. These, unlike those, slip on and off so easily, I keep them beside my bed to slip into if I get up during the night.So, they work well for me as dressy sandals, "airy" work shoes, AND bed slippers. You can see how easy it is for me to keep wearing them and loving them, 16 hours a day! I highly recommend them for active people who love the outdoors.BTW, I suffered with plantar fasciitis for more than a year before I discovered these Crocs. I recovered pain-free use of my feet only after I found some HOKA Recovery Sandals in a running shop and wore THEM 16 hours a day - for about 2 yearsAfter that, my feet could handle wearing my regular, stiffer-soled shoes again, but for only an hour or so. I was very uncertain about trying anything as thin-soled as these Crocs, but then, I found a pair at Super Shoes and tried them on. They were so cheap on sale and so comfortable on my feet, I HAD to buy them. So glad I did!To my surprise, after wearing them more and more each day and getting used to the little bumps on their inner soles, they gently worked and strengthened my feet! What they lacked in HOKA's thick cushiness was made up for in extreme flexibility. I also found walking on uneven terrain with them part of the time helped even more. In less than 6 months, I completely stopped worrying about my feet and began to enjoy walking again.My podiatrist suggested walking on uneven outdoor ground to strengthen my feet, but said to take it easy. If ever my feet felt uncomfortable or hurt me, I went right back to my HOKA's! If you ever have a foot problem, be sure to get advice from a good podiatrist. Good advice about footwear cured my fasciitis, not these sandals. But these sandals did make walking fun again!

I was hesitant to purchase because of the complaints about the straps being ill fitted to narrow feet. I have narrow feet and these fit similarly to my two strap crocs. I don’t think they are loose at all. They are just as nice as all the other crocs I have purchased and I want to get the black pair as well. I’m normally a 9.5 in ladies sneakers. These are croc size W9, due to open toe there is no need to get a size 10. I also have the croc slip on flats and they are W9.I love crocs because I have a very high arch and they support my heel and ball of my foot humanely, LOL. They also dry fast in rain, don’t cause blisters and don’t hold foot odor. Highly recommend!

The most comfiest sandals I’ve ever owned. My feet actually feel better when I wear them, versus when I don’t! Super supportive and cushiony for long walks. Highly recommend and would repurchase in more colors. As other reviewers have mentioned, if you are in between sizes, size DOWN. Crocs really just needs to do us justice and make in between sizes. As a size 7.5, a size 7 was the perfect size for me. A size up will be too large and your feet will slip out.

Very comfortable. Runs wider than they used to.

I first received the wrong style and size. But the seller let me return free and sent me the correct ones. I am so happy because they don't sell these in the store anymore and they are my favorite sandals..ever. my last paid has lasted 4 years and still going. I just needed to add a black pair!

These are incredibly comfortable for my very sensitive daughter. I just moved her up into the next size, she will only wear these. She's worn these for 3 years straight. I'm hoping crocs doesn't discontinue this one because they're truly the best

I ordered a size 8 and they sent me an 8W. I wish the product description would have stated that.Unless you have wide feet be warned.

These are my second pair , I love them i have bad feet these are completely comfortable. I'm satisfied with them and after these are worn out I'll buy a third pair.go ahead give them a try.i usually wear a 7 but in these I buy a 6 😁
