Warning! Fall apart
I bought these for my dad and he loved them, they do come up very big so he could have done with another size smaller (he's an 8 should have gotten a 6) they started off as a great buy but now both shoes have started to fall apart, very disappointed have had to bin them. Had them less than two months and this is their reply:We are sorry to hear that this has happened. Unfortunately, we are not able to accept these back as faulty due to the length of time since your purchase. Also, our suppliers will not accept these back as faulty either. We do apologize, but this is our returns policy which we must stick to.

Nogood quality-
Got the sandals on the 14th of May 2018, and I am writing this review on the 8th of July 2018; yesterday this was the result, no lasting event 2 months really shows poor workmanship and even worst quality; these should be graded as disposable. I read that some other people had some problem with them but I assumed it was a glue issue, but this is appalling.

Comfortable but very poor design........
The fit is very good and they are comfortable to wear..... the problem is after wearing them for about 10 times the heel has collapsed. This is my second pair and the first ones did the same but these have gone even earlier. If you use these for driving or not putting a lot of pressure on the soul then they will be fine and comfortable, if you use them for walking in then unfortunately they are not fit for purpose as the heel goes in no time. It is a shame because a good shoe is useless because of a manufacturing fault.

Brilliant buy
Fabulous buy. These sandals were great value and very comfy. We bought them for our Thailand holiday. We went for a hard core trek in the hills, mud, rocks, climbing and wading through rivers. They lasted through everything. Better than or hiking shoes, because they were waterproof, and very easy to clean. Suggestion from my daughter to wear little trainer socks if used for wet hiking, as your feet stay clean

Mrs is talking about crowbar to get me to take them off!
I wasn't sure about buying these, but then saw the review saying they weren't very good after he wore them every day for eight weeks in Australia, then they started to fall apart....hmmm I thought, that's a pretty tough trial, and I'm doing nothing like that! Comfortable and easy to wear, best pair of trainers / sandals I have ever bought. Thanks PDQ lol UPDATE: Over a year later, and finally I have managed to destroy the heels! These are still comfortable, easy to adjust and I have now ordered a second pair. I particularly like the toe protection on these. Great sandals, fully recommended.

Fall apart after one week of mild use
Good looking sandals at decent price. However......Bought two pairs.First pair I wore on holiday last year for one week of mild walking. Soles of both came unstuck from the shoe upper.Completely wrecked.Decided that this might have been bad luck.As I write I'm on day 5 of this year's holiday. Not only have both soles come unstuck again but in fact the inner sole has broken down to reveal a very uncomfortable honeycomb base. The ribs of this base press up into my feet.Again completely wrecked, unusable and irreparable after less than one week of use.Will be asking for refund or replacement pairs - and I'm not normally someone who can be bothered complaining.

Durable and versatile, practically lives in them all summer
Bought this at least a year and a half ago for my boyfriend. It's endured two holidays and many many walks so pretty durable I'd say! They're comfortable for long days exploring warm cities as well as having great grip for low level hiking (river/woodland paths etc). I'd always recommend walking boots with high ankle support if you're wanting to hike up high mountains, however the support is good enough for most low terrain walks and the tips of your toes are also protected. Having open parts its great for breathability and doesnt let loads of sand in! Also use them under water all the time when snorkelling to protect from rocks etc. I really recommend them for holidays as he wears them all day everyday and can dip in lakes and seas, then dry them off on hikes home!

These shoes aren't made for walking.
Size 10: The length was about right but they were a bit tight across the width, even allowing for the elasticated sides.There is a lot of support for your feet in comparison to sandals but I found the soles are very thin. I bought a pair of Gel inner soles for them, but even then they still feel thin, and the ground very 'hard', if you get my drift. I don't think I would like to do much in the way of 'sports' in them.They were a bit tight before and the inner soles made this even more challenging, so, if you want to use inner soles a size up might help.At this point I feel myself trying to say, "what did I expect for the money". But, another part of me says "Things should do what they say irrespective of the price charged".Apart from the hard thin soles they are good and tough, just don't expect them to be soft.
