 Inconsistent shoe sizes, By
This review is from: crocs Classic Clog,Khaki,Men’s 5 M/Women’s 7 M (Shoes)
I ordered two pairs of Crocs – one pair of thongs and one pair of cayman crocs. I used the sizing chart provided and ordered both pairs in M5/W7. However, when they arrived, while the Thongs fit perfectly, with room to wiggle, the Caymans were way too small (I’d almost say a full size too small). The Thongs were “made in China” and the Caymans “made in Mexico”. I went to my local store and discovered that they receive Croc orders which are often made in multiple countries. It would appear to me that there is no “standard” mold used. So beware – just because you have tried them on in a store and think you have the correct size – you may end up getting a larger or smaller size, depending on where they are manufactured.

Nice surprise!, By
I love these things. My daughter (who’s in the medical field)turned me on to these. She, as do I, has a need for arch support because they’re so high. She also knew my arches has been falling due to age (I’m in my late forties)and I need inserts in my work shoes. She’s been wearing her pair since last fall (2006) and picked me up some of the Croc “glides?” in March. I liked them so much I ordered these Caymans for myself. Amazing support for “difficult” feet. I wear them whenever I’m not in my work shoes. I may look somewhat foolish (they’re marketed at a much lower age bracket than myself), but I’m comfortable so I don’t care. |

My truth about FitFlop Electras, By
mswsahm (USA) – See all my reviews
This review is from: FitFlop Women’s Electra Toning Sandal (Apparel)
First, I have not seen any difference whatsoever in my leg or butt muscles. I don’t care. Not only are these cute, but they are uber-comfortable. I bought these FitFlops about a week before I went to a conference in Los Angeles. I wore them around, broke them in (they don’t need much) and ended up wearing them all my waking hours. We did some walking, and I was happy. It wasn’t until my cousin and I went to Disneyland from 10 a.m until midnight, walking, walking, walking that I realized just how much these FitFlops really help. I walked for the whole 14 hour day and did NOT have horrible knee pain. –Three years ago I screwed up my knee trying to do a 5K. After that I walked 3 miles a couple of times a week (~an hour) for exercise and my knee would be sore. Sometimes I had to quit walking after even 10 minutes, the pain was so sore! But not so with the FitFlops, even after a super full day at Disneyland! Talk about awesome! One more thing. I’ve had all these little broken blood vessels along my (high) arches for a while now, from being about 30 lbs. overweight. Well, the little broken blood vessels have disappeared since I’ve been wearing these FitFlops. I only bought them a month ago! My arches and my knees are so thankful for FitFlops!

Much Better than a regular flop., By
Cinediva (Pasadena, CA) – See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What’s this?)
This review is from: FitFlop Women’s Electra Toning Sandal (Apparel)
I bought the Electra in Black which looks dressier than your average flop and I have been complimented on the style. The FitFlop runs big so even though I wear a 6.5 M in a normal shoe, I wear a 6M in the FitFlop. The FitFlop’s sturdy platform bottom gives you a bit of height and is nicely balanced so you don’t wobble or slide around. I don’t wear flip flops everywhere the way some people do – I’ve seen people wear flip flops with formal dresses, which is an embarrassing fashion mistake. But FitFlops are great for casual and weekend wear. I wear them around the house, for short walks, trips to the store, etc. They are very comfortable and the thong has rounded edges so it doesn’t cut into your foot. I haven’t noticed any significant loss of inches but I was already thin when I got them. I have noticed that they put less pressure on my knees. I’ve had them for two months and with regular use, they still look new. I recommend getting a color with a dark footbed like black or bronze. (Lighter footbeds of sandals show toe marks over time.) Definitely recommend this product.

My feet couldn’t be happier, By
This review is from: FitFlop Women’s Electra Toning Sandal (Apparel)
I have two pair of this miracle product. I have Neuroma in my left foot that forced me to quit my job. I have paid close to 0.00 in the past for Orthodics and shoes to help my problem but over time was no help at all. I live in Arizona where you can wear thongs year around, so after seeing this product on TV (Oprah) and reading numerous reviews on them I purchased my first pair and I was in a dream because I can walk for long periods of time with very little to no pain. There is very little pressure on the ball of my foot where all my problem is. Thank you for your Fitflops they have literally saved my life from a nonactive existance to being able to enjoy my life again. I highly recommend these sandals to anyone who has the same problem, you will love them. |
What a CrOc!?,
At first I didn’t know what to make of this shoe/sandal… it’s lightweight, comfortable and “convertible”, which is a nice feature that I’ve never seen in a sandal before. First, I’ll break down the benefits, then give the low-points.
“LIGHTWEIGHT & COMFORTABLE”
This is probably the most attractive feature of the CROC, because it adds to the comfort and makes you feel like you’re walking on air. By far the most comfortable things I’ve ever worn and I’m a picky shoe person. I have only owned 1 pair of sandals for the past 6 years and have hated every other sandal I’ve tried on, so these CROCS are definitely special.
“CONVERTIBLE”
You can turn the “sandal” into a “shoe” simply by pushing forward the strap. In “shoe” mode, it’s a tighter more snug fit, so you don’t have to worry about it coming off your feet. In “sandal” mode, it’s easy to slip on and off (although it has a tendency to cling to the bottom of your feet), for that quick trip outside to take out the trash, or pick up your cell phone that you left in the car.
PROBLEM: “SWEATY FEET”
One problem I have with the CROC is that it doesn’t ventilate very well. Sure, it’s got holes. But the material is such that it traps heat so you’re feet end up sweating in warm weather.
PROBLEM: “HOLES ALLOW DEBRIS IN”
Another problem is that the holes allow all sorts of debris into the sandal while you’re walking, such as loose rocks, wood chips at the playground, sand and dirt (when you’re not at the beach), and rain water (puddles in the parking lot). This means that you’re feet get dirty rather quickly and can be uncomfortable at places where there is a lot of debris – eg, playgrounds.
“SIZE & PRICE”
Sizing is a bit weird. I’d recommend going to a store first to try it on and see what size you are. It’s hard to find a good selection at a store, so it’s best just to dip in for sizing and then purchase the one you want on Amazon. Turned out to be the best thing for me, as I was able to score Army Green Caymans from Amazon, while searching at numerous stores I’ve only been able to find blue and black Caymans in sizes way too big. For $29.99 I think it’s a bit pricey actually, but if you’re picky about sandals like me, there’s nothing you can do about it.
“STYLE”
One other thing you’ll have to get used to is how aesthetically disgusting it is. Let’s be frank: it’s a damn ugly shoe and there’s no way getting around it. It’s not the prettiest thing to wear, but it’s hands-down the most comfortable. Just be careful where you tread. Definitely not an all-terrain/purpose sandal. Good for beach and casual sidewalk/short trip walking.
“DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE BEACH AND CAYMAN STYLES”
None. Except that the sizes for Beach version are “ranges” and are more roomy for your feet. Cayman sizes are exact and are more narrow. Try on before you buy as the versions are not the same.

(now if only I could get my high arched feet into their other styles too!)
