This is the second pair of
Nike Sunray Protect sandals I have bought. I originally bought the pink ones in size 4. I was so satisfied with the shoe that I bought these purple ones in size 5. The
sole of the shoe is flexible and doesn't require much breaking in, but you can tell by feeling it that it protects. The upper is made of neoprene I believe, which is great because it can get wet and dries quickly. Even though it allows for good air circulation throughout the foot, it offers toe protection so she can wear them to daycare. The only thing I would mention is that, like other
Nike products, this shoe does tend to run a little small. The size 4 sandals she grew out of are the only size 4
shoes that no longer fit. Other than that, I am very satisfied with my purchase.
