Skechers for Foot Comfort and Support
I started having some problems with my feet a few years back, which I chalked up to aging, being now in my mid 50's. I decided I just needed more supportive and comfortable shoes. It was recommended I give Skechers brand a try a little over a year ago. and I couldn't be happier that I did. ALL my shoes are now Skechers brand. With summer coming, I needed new sandals this year, so these are my first Skechers brand sandals. I have a personal preference for sandals with a back heel strap, as it helps to keep them on when wearing them for long periods and/or participating in more vigorous activities, without causing pain over time arising from trying to keep my feet in sandals without a back strap. I've also found those that have a strap coming up between your toes can cause pain over time for me, so I avoid that type. This pair met those criteria. These open and close via velcro, which makes them far easier to put on and take off than the buckle types that can sometimes dig in to your feet, and they are secure. I usually like the femininity afforded by low, flat sandals that look less "blocky" to me, but sometimes concessions are necessary... these have the chunkier base, but like other Skechers, provide the comfort and support I now need for the well being of my feet. The straps are designed in such a way as to be reminiscent of Roman style sandals. The cushioned fabric straps are more comfortable than hard leathers and pseudo leathers that can be uncomfortable and become sticky in the heat, and the triangle connectors and side (rather than center top) strap add some femininity and flair to the design. With enclosed Skechers shoes, I usually buy wides to accomodate socks and comfort, and sometimes even go up half a size, depending on how the toe of the shoe appears. I went with my normal shoe size and didn't go wide on these, and after breaking them in for a few days, they are fine. These can get wet and still have traction, unlike some sandals, and can easily be rinsed clean as well if needed. While Skechers are not the most inexpensive shoes, they are far from most designer shoe prices, and they are worth every penny if you have foot pain. Since making the switch to Skechers, after a year, I now have no ongoing/constant pain in middle of the ball of my left foot, foot cramps (which may be in part due to adding a sliced banana to my Greek yogurt in the mornings), and my feet fall asleep/have pins and needles sensations far less frequently. Good shoes may well be the most important clothing decision you can make for your health and well being, particularly as you start to age. I cannot recommend Skechers enough.

Best Sandals Ever!
The best sandals ever. Please don't ever stop making these Sketchers - this model is my favorite and I've been wearing them for years and hope to for years to come. My feet will thank you if you keep making them.Fit is great and they are so comfortable. I can walk miles in these and have many times. I have a high arch and they seem to support me well. Size is spot on and the straps never rub my feet wrong. Nice variety of colors - I have them in most of the colors available to match any outfit.These truly are one of my favorite pieces of footwear. They seem stylish to me, but I'm not the most fashionable unless you count being comfortable as stylish like I do. Comfort = the best type of style. I do get compliments on them so they must be stylish enough.

Comfortable and Cute
I just love these Skechers sandals, which I was unable to find at the official Skechers store. After looking at their store for hours and not finding what I wanted, I decided to look on Amazon just for the heck of it, and here they were, waiting for me. The price was reasonable and the fit is perfect. They are stylish but have the arch support that many attractive shoes lack. I am sure I will get a lot of wear out of them. And they are white, which seems not to be this year's color but that's what I wanted.

Great sandals but stitching was defective
First off, I love sketchers shoes and sandals, and so do my feet. Its hard to find shoes that offer a wide width and Sketchers does in many models. I chose these sandals due to 1) wide width, 2) soft sole (as opposed to many similar sandals that have hard soles), 3) style and 4) price. They were quickly delivered. My only complaint, and the reason for a less than 5-star review, is the stitching on the adjustable strap was defective; was at the very edge of the top layer of the strap, to the point the edge of the top layer is raveling and broken, see picture. I returned them for replacement. Just a note to other buyers to look these over carefully as soon as you get them.

Super comfortable
I absolutely love the style of this shoe. I have it in every color the most comfortable shoes I have. However, I wish they would make the bottom of them with more traction. They wear out by the end of the summer and I can slip slide away.

A+ comfort for all day walking
After trying numerous similar sandals I kept these and sent the others back - including a high dollar Teva model and Skechers Reggae Slims. I wanted to wait until I really wore them to write this review. While I will never were them to hike (I prefer a closed toe shoe) I wanted something that would keep my feet cool and comfortable for the entire day of walking. I bought them prior to a Mexico trip where I knew we’d be walking all day long. These sandals were fantastic! I had them on my feet all day long for days in a row. The straps did not cut into my wide feet. Nor did my feet smell afterwards. After walking in the beach sand they easily rinsed off the next day. Plenty of arch support without being too much. Definitely recommend!
