love the sandals,this is the 3rd year they are the only one i can were for days.

Great shoe, great value

On: 2008-05-24

I bought these shoes from Campmor a year ago in preparation for a kayaking trip to Baja. The shoes were great--comfortable, lightweight, and durable. When I saw them on sale for $20 on Amazon, I immediately snatched up an extra pair! Theyre so comfortable that now I regularly choose them over my leather sandals for everyday summer wear. A great product.

Well-priced

On: 2007-11-22

Sandal is well-stitched and durable, but fits large and is extremely lightweight. Worth the price!

causes many blisters

On: 2007-09-16

Tried to wear on several water hikes and each time I had to cover my toes with bandaids because the shoes really hurt and caused many blisters. I dont recommend this shoe at all.

This product was true to advertising. Seems to be true to sz and comfortable for all day wear.

I thought I ordered in time to take them on their first vacation but they arrived a day late.

Still plenty of warm weather ahead so I will get a bit of wear.

Colombia is a dependable brand for me.

I never hesitate ordering a Colombia brand item. And these were great prices too! Have 4 pairs now in as many colors.

First try

On: 2007-08-09

This is my first try of this type of sandal. Surprisingly, they are very comfortable and offer quite good support. I would recommend them for any type of activity. At first they felt "different", but soon I noticed very nice for walking.

Amazing sandals

On: 2007-08-09

If you want a stylish, well-made, slightly rugged but still girlie and fashionable sandal that will stand up to most anything, this is the product for you ! The colors are wonderful, the sandals fit great and they are ever so comfortable. You will not be disappointed with them in any way.

Love these Sandals

On: 2007-07-22

I wore these sandals while in the river and they were great. Looks good out of water too. Didnt bite my feet at all; however I bought the same pair for my husband and his sandals did bite his toes.

Best shoes I've ever owned!

The columbia Sportswear Surftide II sandal is the msot comfortable pair of shoes Ive ever had. Perfect from the moment I put them on. They were shipped promptly and were exactly as described.

great sandalsa, and washable too! Better than expected, have ordered 6 more pair in 3 other colors.

fantastic

On: 2006-11-04

These were better than I could have hoped! I wore them for the first time, for 8 hours, on the first day of my vacation in Hawaii without breaking them in. In the water and tromping two miles through the jungle left me with no blisters or sore places on my feet! Very confortable!

Straps hurt

On: 2006-11-03

Straps on this shoe are very short and since they close with velcro, they are too short. I tried to add velcro, but that didnt work. I had to give the shoes away. The strap rubbed across the top of the ankle and on the side of the foot and were very uncomfortable. Would not recommend if you are on the heavy side.

Works for water aerobics, sort of

On: 2006-08-25

I just started doing water aerobics and needed a shoe for traction while in the pool. Unfortunately, I need to wear sandals for medical reasons and apparently no one (including Columbia) makes a water aerobics sandal. I tried these because they sounded like they could handle exposure to water and were at a really good price. They handle the water just fine, drying completely in about 8 hours and show no sign of falling apart. The traction isnt as strong as I would like, but its better than bare feet or having damaged toes from shoes. Also, the sandals create more drag in the water than regular water aerobics shoes, making my feet cramp more than they probably would have. I gave the product five stars because the sandals are performing the way they were advertised; Im just using them for something they werent designed for.

Quality you expect

On: 2006-08-16

Great shoes, rugged, amphibious as promised, and the quality I expect from Columbia. (I bought these because, as much as I love my Crocs, I needed a less goofy look but all the water-friendly features.) My only wish is for half sizes, as the sole runs a little long past my toes, increasing potential for tripping. This is a great shoe for light hiking but if youre climbing over a lot of rocks, get something that covers your toes.

Very Comfortable - Good Quality

On: 2006-07-30

Ive been wearing these sandals for almost 2 months and theyre terrific. Ive never been able to find a pair in this style that Ive been able to wear comfortably and not get blisters or sore spots. These are very comfortable. I can walk in them for hours and they dont "rub me the wrong way". Quality and comfort and they look good - what more can you ask?

comfortable beach shoes

On: 2006-07-26

These are very comfortable beach shoes and I was very pleased with the price.
I would change the color names because they are too vague and I could only guess which one would match my swimsuit.

Very comfortable, and great walking sandal. This shoe runs true to size. Very pleased.

like open sneakers

On: 2006-07-04

Overall very comfortable but were a little stiff at first, got some blisters but now they feel as good as sneakers with very good support.
