Review on ๐Ÿ‘ถ Original Toddler Boys' Salt Water Sandals Shoes by Christopher Isaac

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The perfect summer shoe - terrible packaging

We LOVE these sandals. They are super durable. I buy them for my kids every other summer - the first summer I buy them a size up and they last two years (and would have lasted a lot longer if they hadn't outgrown them). We've walked miles in them and used them in lakes and rivers. My kids have used them as water shoes and they don't fall apart at all. I have a pair for myself and have also used them in the water. They stretch after being fully submerged, but not enough to ruin the fit - mine felt a little looser after being fully submerged and then walked, but not enough to justify buying another pair (if so they arrive and feel a bit tight - maybe try submerging and then walking around in them until they're dry.) As for the fit, I went to the Saltwater website and used their calculator to work out what size I was for my kids needed it, it was very helpful. I love the colors available. We've tried gold, tan, navy blue, and rose gold and they all look amazing. I will wear my kids in these shoes as long as they let me - they are the perfect summer sandals! A small note on the packaging - when I have ordered them in previous years they were packaged and delivered in perfect condition. When I ordered them this year (June 2018), the shoeboxes arrived in one package and were completely disassembled. It's good that the sandals are so hard-wearing, otherwise they would be completely destroyed. Shoe boxes were crushed and torn, and the sandals themselves were floating in the bag. Big disappointment. Five stars for the shoes and minus five stars for the packaging (and this is the first time I've cared enough about the packaging to mention it - sometimes Revain's packaging is great, sometimes not so much, but this one At times it was really terrible). Photos are attached.

Pros
  • Big Kid this model runs two sizes smaller than women's shoes. The sandal strap is available in both large children's and women's sizes. Example: 7W9 refers to Big Kid 7 and Women's 9
Cons
  • Legacy model
