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!

Love these shoes! I needed something for an upcoming girls trip for around the pool and I found them! They are light weight, super comfortable, cute, and versatile. The grip ensures I won't slip on stray water. I'm certain I'll be wearing these often!

Very comfortable. Runs wider than they used to.

Most comfortable and stylish sandal I’ve ever worn. This is my backup pair. I wear them everywhere and they are waterproof and so easy to clean.

Love these sandals. Comfortable and cute. Able to walk all day in them.going to buy more colors.

Why change what was already perfect? These have been my favorite sandals for years and every year I get a new pair. And this year was a surprise to find out that they have slimmed down the sandal! What the heck? I’ve worn the same size shoes for 7 years and now suddenly these are too small? Why slim them down? And before anyone says otherwise here’s a photo of the old pair next to the new pair and you can clearly see it’s been slimmed down and the top of the sandal is pointed more. The right is the original pair that I have and the left is the new pair I just bought. You can clearly see it’s slimmed down. Like I said I’ve bought a pair every year for the last 4 years and this is the first issue I’ve had. I know my feet didn’t grow cause I’m in my 30’s and done growing so crocs what the heck?

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!
