Ordered this shoe for my 3 year old for vacation to replace his Teva's he outgrew from summer.  Although they are a great quality, comfortable shoe, they are not ideal for an all-around beach shoe because of the footbed liner.  The liners are removable, which make for a lot of sand build up underneath.  The great thing about his Teva's and also the Keen's I just ordered in place of these, is that the footbed is a soft, cleanable rubber which makes it easy to just rinse the sand off and continue wearing.  My daughter's beach shoes from last summer had liners like these, and I could never get all the sand out.  The reason I'm giving these 3 stars is because they are a GREAT shoe if you are looking for a water shoe where sand is not involved, such as boating.
