PlakaExplore Walking and Hiking Sandals for Women | Comfortable Summer Sandal with Arch Support | Waterproof Comfy Sandals for Travel, Beach or Poolside

Got these in a pinch a few days before leaving the country for two weeks for vacation after my expensive sandals that I had just bought broke! Not only are they super comfy and you can walk cobblestone streets in them. They’re super stylish dress up and dress down. Fit perfectly, but I had some struggles just slipping them on. You can definitely get an all day wear on them. They’re very well-made and have really great arch support.

Oh my goodness! I love this product! I love the color of this sandal, the style is versatile (the strap adjustment is amazing!), the back strap can be moved to be behind the heel or moved to the top of my foot, so this product is super easy to use! I have also never worn a more comfortable shoe! The quality is fantastic and I would recommend this sandal to anyone! This sandal is also light weight which makes the sandal even more amazing!

Love these! I've been wearing them every day for the past week (prepping for vacation where we will be doing a lot of walking) - they're comfortable, secure (wore them in heavy rain and did not slip), durable, and look great! The sandal fits well - I ordered size 8 (I usually wear 7.5 or 8, depending on the shoe) and the straps are great with good support. Got Brazilian Sand color and it's the perfect neutral. I've already recommended to friends and will probably get another pair in black for versatility. These are good for casual or dressing up, in my opinion.

These are amazing walking shoes. Incredibly comfortable and light. Toe loop keeps big toe stable so feet never stick out the front and look unattractive (a personal pet peeve).I wish there was more grip to the sole design for wet conditions, but great for summer sightseeing on paved and flat surfaces. Not for hiking at all. Very stylish.

Received this morning, wore them all day and just got home from a 2 mile walk. They feel great. They are lightweight and comfy. Fit true to size. Foot support and cushion are excellent. They are definitely coming to Europe with me.UPDATE: Just returned from a 2-week trip walking the cobblestone streets of Europe, wore them almost daily, and walked about 20K steps a day. They were perfect and so comfortable and still in great shape. I need to give them a little scrub, as we got caught in two rainstorms. Traction was perfect. I am buying another pair in another color.

These are great. I wasn't sure about which size to get- I am a 9, typically, but depending on shoe, it can differ. Sometimes I go 9.5, but that's either in running shoes or some dress shoes. The 8.5/9 fit me perfectly.As far as adjustability, the strap behind the heel is what is adjustable. It connects to the straps that cross over the top of the foot, on either side. You can slide the heel strap up or down (or forward or back, depending on how you look at it), and it makes for a more snug or loose fit. My guess about people saying the straps get loose over time, *may* have something to do with this feature being a little more mobile after some wear. But, it could also be that the braids tighten up, making the straps be just a tiny bit longer than at purchase. Either way, for now they are great and I think for the price point (these aren't Chacos, after all) the quality is good and even if they stretch a bit, I would be glad I bought them.They are incredibly light, and the support is good- it's firm, without being stiff in the sole, or hard on the bottom of the feet. It's also not annoyingly squishy, which can feel kinda gross to my feet, especially if the shoe gets wet. In fact, I suppose they're so comfortable that the only way I think about my feet is to stop to consider how good they are feeling from time to time.The bottom of the soles are not what I could consider "hiking" sandals. They have texture for sure, but it is more like a light but dense foam/ (plastic?) I will feel ok wearing these in drier, slightly rough terrain, but I personally would not feel comfortable relying on them on wet or potentially slippery hikes.. however I've seen some reviews here that say they use them for that and with no issues. I suppose if they prove themselves trustworthy, then after some time I might give them a go at wetter conditions.They are quiet shoes, with the exception of the light sound of my heel lifting off of the back of the sole. I don't know that that is avoidable, but the shoes themselves don't make a lot of noise on the ground- indoor or outdoor.Overall, I would definitely recommend them. I will be using them for travel - to have a utilitarian sandal that can also be dressed up. Then just around town in my regular life when I return. If anything significant comes up after using them for sometime, I will edit this post.

These sandals are amazing. I have a wide foot and these fit so well. They can be worn as a slip-on or with a strap behind the heel to hold them on. The strap is also adjustable which I didn’t realize at first but made all the difference in switching back and forth between the two styles. I spent the last 2 days wearing and walking around in them for 10+ hrs and had no discomfort. No sore spots between my toes or on my heel. No ache in my arch or lower back that I typically get from walking in sandals. Plus they look cute with dresses or shorts and can be dressed up or down. I’m so happy with them that I just ordered a light color pair. The only thing I can’t speak on is durability since I’ve only had them for a week but will definitely update this if they turn out not to be.
