Generally, overall these are nicely made sandals. But there are 2 main problems with them.

#1 - They really only fit narrow feet very well. If you are medium width...maybe. My friend is medium to average width and his are not comfortable so he returned them. If you are slightly wider than average, these will not fit well at all. The velcro straps will not reach far enough across to be secured.

#2 - Apparently, from reading tons of reviews and speaking to a fellow water buff, the 'interchange' strap hinge pins pop out or break after minimal exposure to water. Numerous reviewers said salt water exposure of an hour or two had left them with busted shoes. My buddy said his never lasted long either. Once the hinges popped, he tossed them in the garbage and vowed never to buy another Columbia foot product again.

I am inclined to agree. I have been very satisfied with Columbia clothing but their shoes, boots, sandals, etc. never seem to work out for myself or my fellow hikers, kayakers, sailors, etc. It seems they only build shoes for people with very slight, frail, skinny feet.
