These are comfy- what I expected for the money. No great support or anything, but you really have to invest in water shoes if that is what you want. They did run a little large. I typically wear a 7 and that is what I bought but they are looser than I am comfortable with. And of course when you're in the water they loosen even more! Also there is this thin layer of fabric on the bottom! Beware!!! Rub that off quickly. I stepped on slimy rocks with it still there and ate it hard. Really? I was able to rub them on the dock and most of the fabric came off. But who sets a death trap like that? Im rethinking my 3 star review.
