Made in CHINA!
Very deceiving. Hoy, the company that makes Saltwater Sandals, states made in St Louis, MO. Nope, made in China- the same place that boils dogs and cats alive! Had I known beforehand I would not have bought! Had been wanting a pair of these sandals for years and finally got around to buying the "Classic" in "Mustard" which is a nice versatile yellow. I wear a US women's 7 so ordered the 5 and they fit very well. At first they rubbed my arch quite a bit as the leather is quite hard but as the instructions stated I wet them then wore them as they dried. This softened them a bit.One shoe I can only buckle once across ankle, other shoe, must buckle 2 or 3 notches down. Comfortable for general day wear but since no cushioning I wouldn't advise wearing walking in all day. I didn't buy for that purpose though. Bought them to be in water with my dog and for general wear. Bring back to making in the US please and put people before greed and profits!

Not what I ordered, but still love them
I love these sandals! But the picture of what I ordered and what I got are not the same. I wanted the ones with the buckle in the front and got the ones without a buckle. I am keeping them because they fit well and I like them. But this is the second time I ordered and didn’t get what I ordered. I don’t know about ordering any more. I’m not sure what I will get.

Fits smaller and differently from the "regular" style; made in China not US.
This style fits totally differently from the woven, non-buckled forefront style. The sole is shorter but also wider. I got them in mustard and they appeared to be made out of a poorer quality leather than the regular style. The ones I received were made in China and just of a lower quality than I am used to for Salt Water sandals. The buckles were flimsier than the other pairs I have and they were just nowhere near as comfortable. Returned them.

Well-made, classic style sandal.
I tried the Original Saltwater Sandal, and unfortunately for my size 7.5 foot, a size 7 was too short, and the size 8 fit in length but the toe straps felt loose. I went for the Classic style in a size 8, and these fit in length and I am able to adjust the toe part to fit my foot. I also like that if for some reason my feet swell, I can loosen the toe area as well. These shoes are well-made, but are not the super comfortable sandal that I have heard some claim them to be. They also are not uncomfortable. I feel they are adequate. The sole is thick enough to protect your foot, but still if flexes as needed. I feel as though I can wear these for outings where I will be do a mixture of walking and sitting, but do not think they will be my first choice if I am planning to be walking all day long. I am a fan of a more cushioned sole as opposed to a flat sandal such as these. Right out the package, the straps were a bit stiff and I debated sending them back, but went ahead and soaked them in water, and that step really helped soften the leather and made the straps feel much better on my foot. I do not own/want many pairs of shoes, so what I do have needs to fit well, and these are basic and neutral enough to fit everything in my comfy-casual summer wardrobe.

My fav as a kid and my fav as an adult.
I had to order a few times to get the right size, here run a tad smaller than the originals (no toe buckle). I manage a salon and am in my feet all day and these somehow do not bother my feet or my back, they’re comfy and supportive. My daughters both have big had several pairs of these in ever size. Here are the best quality and will last a life time if you don’t outgrown them. I wear a perfect size 8 generally but ordered these in size 9, I have very narrow feet so while they look wide in me they won’t be on you unless you have narrow feet too. Thats what makes this style with the toe buckle so amazing.

Love my Salt Water Sandals!
I have been wanting these sandals in red for the past two seasons and they are always sold out of my size! This year I was ahead of my game and ordered them early, before spring/summertime. I wear a women's size 9 and the Big Kid size 7 is perfect. I posted my new sandals on social media and received many, many "likes" so I'm sure a few of my friends are going to order them too!

fit nicely, just one thing could be improved
I'm an adult with a short, wide foot. I got a kids' 3 and 2 (!) in these. I usually wear an women's 5, if the width is ok-- many shoes are too narrow.These looked like they could work because of the adjustable straps, and yes, they're pretty great. The 3 was a little better width-wise, but kind of long. The 2 is perfect length-wise, but very fitted. I dislike wearing sandals with too much length hanging in front of the toes, so I'm keeping the 2s and trying to stretch them out with the suggested water method.They're really quite comfortable, overall! Nice leather, nicely made.The reason for the missing star is for the length of the straps. I have the buckles on the very last hole. The ankle strap is just a tad too tight. I hope it stretches. I've seen other reviewers have had the same problem, whether adults or children are wearing the shoes. Maybe the Saltwater company could consider lengthening the ankle strap by a centimeter or two?

Perfect!
Super comfortable! Unless you need arch support these are fantastic sandals. My feet are a little on the wide side but not enough to ever need wide width. The fit perfectly. My daughter has narrow feet. We just soaked them and let the bands shrink up and they fit perfectly.
