My wife is going to write this one, since she bought it:  "Well, I don't like it as well as I hoped.  Expensive, but cheaply made in China, as it turned out.  The sole isn't very flexible, but still wearable, made of some sort of light plastic.  I don't get why a shoe that appears to be designed to be waterproof has some sort of leather trim, either.  It's reasonably comfortable and since it's an open-backed sandal, the usual oversized heel cup isn't the issue it would be for me with most Chinese-made shoes. I got this in the "light green" but it's that light blue-green or electric turquoise green that you sometimes see painted on the bottom of a pool.  Very eye-catching, if that works for you. The 8.5W fit me OK, but I wear a C width, not D. I don't know if it would work for a wider foot.  I haven't decided if I'll go though the hassle of returning it, but I may stop buying Easy Spirit, because I want value for my money."
