I love the style of these! Look great and feel, pretty good. Not great, for me anyways. Something about the wholes on the bottom of water shoes that starts to bug me after a while. After wearing them for more then 2-3 hours I actually start feeling a little pain. I haven't heard anyone else complain about this sensation. Lucky me! They do have great support for outdoor stuff. I'd still recommend them.

My husband tried this shoe and liked it and he is very picky with shoes. One down fall though when he went to walk the hard plastic on the inside by the arch pinched with every step so we have to return.

These sandals would be perfect for someone with flat feet and needs some arch support. If that is not you, then they will hurt you feet big time. The arch is way overdone. Because of the arch, they caused my feet to rub the side of the sandals with every step almost to the point of blistering. I just bought the sandals today and will be returning them tomorrow because of that. They were very nice looking, breathed very well and were comfortable aside from the arch problem.

Hubby loved them but would have been better had they come in 1/2 sizes and at least 2 width choices -- had to buy a bit big to fit.

I really liked this shoe and it was very, very comfortable. I wanted to keep it except it was very slippery on the bottom and I would have fallen on wet or slick surfaces. Cannot afford to do that. I am looking for shoes to wear to Europe.

I was looking to add diversity to my limited shoe wardrobe of flip-flops and sneakers. I need a dressier shoe to wear with either jeans or khakis. This shoe accomplishes this because they look great and are comfortable. I thought I had found The Shoe but I'm returning them because they don't stay securely on my feet. I had no trouble with the shoes when I first tested them; i.e., they didn't fall off. I wore the shoes to work the following day and tripped because I had walked out of one shoe. The closure wasn't fastened. Figuring I must have been careless, I put them on again and ensured the hooks/loops were securely fastened. I had only worn them for a couple hours when suddenly (and literally) I walked out of the same shoe and almost tripped while walking a flight of stairs. The closure wasn't staying fastened because the hook/loop straps aren't adequate for the task. By the way, don't expect a quiet walk while wearing these shoes. There is a horsey quality to soles sound as they clop on a bare floor.

Do not waste your time with this shoe. It seemed wonderful at first, until I realized it has a very hard plastic sole with no cushion or give to it that makes a loud clomping noise as you walk, even on carpet. In addition, it is very over priced, considering the quality of the shoe and the fact that it is made in China. I try to buy American made whenever possible.

Cute shoe but it angles in on one side and that made it too short for my toes.

A Lover of Softwalks was anxious to get this one. I am a bit disappointed. Love the color, but have only worn them a few times and the toe is scuffing badly. Have never had this problem with softwalks before. Fit is good and I like I can adjust across the instep as my foot tends to swell.

SoftWalk shoes are wonderful! The fit is always spot-on. This is my fifth pair of SoftWalk, and they are light and perfectly comfortable. These shoes don't need to be broken-in, and with proper care will last indefinitely.

The outer side of the shoe was too high and my ankle would ride on it, thus on comfortable. This was just the one shoe. Loved the look and it would be comfortable except for ankle.

I have seriously messed up feet, high arches, heel pain, ingrown toenails and wide width ... in spite of this I like to think of myself as "cool" and I don't like dorky looking shoes. These shoes fit the bill, they're all day comfortable. great toe box, will expand to allow for orthotics and aren't even the slightest bit ugly. The arch support is a little weak, I'll be inserting an arch support but that's good news for people with regular or flat arches! They go great with work slacks and jeans. In terms of style, I'd call them "city hipster with a twist of feminine flair"

These shoes are super cute but there are a few cons - plastic sole, the leather scratches very easy and the leather is not really black, its more like an aged black where its black in some areas and grey in others. This shoe is extremely comfortable but I'm not sure these shoes are worth the price.

Softwalk seems to run small for me. I normally wear a 6 1/2. I ordered a 7 on the second try and they still seem too short.
