Z/Cloud Sandal (Women)

I was hoping to wear these sandals kayaking. I wear a size 8.5 and ordered both size 8 and 9 (reviews were mixed on ordering up vs down). The size 8 fit me the best. These were cute out of the box and the quality seemed to be great! The arch placement just didn’t work well for my feet. I felt like the sandals flattened my feet out like a pancake making them look very wide. These just weren’t for me.

I’ve had knock-off pair of tevas that I’ve worn for years to the river. I thought I’d upgrade to a nice pair of hiking sandals, but these are so much worse than my cheap knock-offs. The arches are so high. I have no idea who could wear shoes with arches like that. And the front strap is not adjustable and huge. The shoes just flop around on my feet.

I love these shoes. These are nearly the only shoe I wear, May through October, unless I need closed toed shoes or something fancy. I wear them to work in an office, hiking on trails, walking my dog, taking my kids to the park, etc. They are very comfortable and have good tread. I match or contrast my nail polish to the bands so they look cute. They do run large - I am a 10.5 women’s and wear a size 9 in these.
