I am very happy with these. I have been using Cro*s as my gardening shoe, but it's not the best choice - although comfortable, that brand has holes, and my heels get exposed to the dirt. Moreover, that brand does not repel dirt and can get stained.

These sloggers are different. They wash off well, are comfortable, and keep my heel clean - even without socks.

I think Sloggers tend to run a bit small. I wear an 8C or 8.5M & purchased a 9 - the fit is perfect! My toes have a bit of wiggle room but not too much, and the back is relatively secure on my narrow heel.

The fit is great for half-sizes ordering up. I'd even encourage whole sizes to think about going up one.
