I bought this shoe in tan at the mall because it was only offered there in that color and I loved it so much I wanted another pair, so I ordered this blue one through Amazon.com.  (The price was around $10 cheaper.) I don't typically order shoes online without trying on the shoe in the store first. I had to order a larger shoe size for this brand to fit and it is very comfortable.  It's a great casual shoe for going to the fitness center and bumming around. It is stretchy too so I can wear it without socks to yoga and with thick wool socks for walking.  I haven't tried it in the pool yet but I'm sure it would work out well.  I've also found this shoe to be a conversation starter because it is colorful and classy. I love this shoe!
