These are so cute, but I have to return them. Very flattering on the feet, my husband says they are plain (not such a bad thing to me!). My daughter says the area where the front and back of the ankle strap meets, digs in her ankle. She is a little scared of buckles (is used to velcro). The sole of this shoe (size 13) measures 8 1/8 in. long, if that helps anyone.

They're great! I ordered it for my five year old daughter and she won't take them off! She loves them! It's a good fit and strong, the color also goes with everything.

Cute sandal -
I just bought these for my almost 3 yr old in white and they are adorable. The leather was soft and the shoe appeared very well made, but the best part for me were the soles. They were flexible and she didn't trip in them. Last year we wore Bear Feet sandals and because the soles are crepe, she constantly tripped and fell. These seem to run very true to size, the 8 fit us perfect for now, but I was afraid by summer they would be too small so I exchanged them for a 9 and they were way too big. Ultimately we won't be keeping this sandal this summer, but have ordered the original saltwater in a size 8 as they do run half a size larger and will work better for us. Great summer sandal if you’re not in between sizes.

Ordered these in a size 12 for my daughter who wears a size 11.5. The front of the shoes were so long it was crazy. The length of the base of the shoe from the front buckle to the top of the toe is crazy long. You'd have to have Ronald McDonald toes to pull these off.

We LOVE these sweetheart saltwater sandals!!!! We have four daughters so we have a lot of them and they get handed down. They are so high quality that they make it through at least two kids if not three! They are our everyday all day shoes. We lived in Hawaii and now Florida so they are worn year round and in all situations. To the beach, to Disney, to church, rain or shine! I’ve even machine washed them before. We have always bought the matte white ones but this time we branched out to this patent pink and it is so pretty. We gets lots of compliments. I thought about buying some freshly picked sandals this year because they’re so cute by my husband said “why would you buy less than the best?” Haha. We are convinced these are the best kids shoes there are.

I am always looking for a cute white pair of sandals for my daughter, to go with everything in her closet. Don't get me wrong, I love shoes and would happily buy a pair for each outfit (if budget allowed) but for a girl on a serious budget these shoes delivered classic style, comfort, and affordability. My daughter is in a size 9, and her foot runs a little wide and these shoes fit perfectly.

At first I could not believe the uniformly high ratings for this sandal, but now I get it. So pleased with this purchase: adorable and lightweight, and I'm happy to finally find a sandal with an actual buckle and not velcro. It does seem to run about a half-size large.

This is the perfect sandal for any girl. The gold color is very versatile and goes with everything. We have worn these shoes in the mud, cleaned them and they came out good as new. I highly recommend these sandals and will be ordering them for my older two girls as well.

These are adorable, and since they can be adjusted at the toe and the ankle, they can accommodate any little foot. The buckle is a little stiff, but I suspect it will loosen up as she wears them more.

These are the best shoes for summer. We always get white-classic, but the other colors are so fun! My daugher wears an 8.5 and the 9 is perfect for her. Like that you can adjust the strap for a good fit.

We wear a 10-10 1/2 shoe so I bought a 10 in these sandals. They fit perfect. Can't wait for her to wear them.

This is a better version of the Salt Water sandal we all grew up loving because of the flexible sole! I also love the scallop edging and the bright patent leather! No complaints from my 2.5 year old who did not have time to break them in before wearing them on a trip to CA. No blistering & easy to wash off sand!

These sandals are so well made, I got them for my 2 year old in this beautiful yellow and also in silver. They support her feet well and are great for Florida hot weather.They are a little wide, my little one has a narrow foot, but the buckle in the front adjusted well to her foot, I got these in a size 6 and they were perfect, I wish they had the gold and the shiny creamy color in her size or maybe the next size up. Zappos is always incredible with their shipping, were here within 1 day of ordering. Love Zappos and Love these Sun-San sandals. Please bring more sizes. :)

My daughter's and my favorite shoes this summer, match to everything, comfortable, cute, still look new after wearing almost everyday for 4 months! Love it, she grew out of it, but buying it for next year again in a bigger size. Also, will pass this pair to my niece since it looks new!!

Great shoes! My daughter loves them. We got stuck in a mini flood and had to walk through puddles up to our ankles and the shoes didn't get ruined even though they are leather, they are still great. They are comfortable. My daughter complains about shoes all the time and these she finally loves.

Great sandals! These are so helpful since they look nice but if we accidentally end up running through sprinklers (which we did, last weekend) they don't get ruined. My two-year-old daughter loves the patent leather and the hearts -- we ended up buying the green, too. Buckling was difficult at first but after the leather softened up they have been easy to get on and off. While velcro is easier, the advantage of real buckles is that she can't get them off by herself when I don't want her to take them off! This shoe seems to run a bit small so we sized up. Great for my daughter's narrow feet -- she can't wear Stride Rite, Pediped, or See Kai Run brands because they are too wide and deep for her feet.

These sandals rock. They are very sturdy and according to my five year old very comfortable too. We have been to beach twice and they are still just like new.

Great shoes. Cute and good quality. My child has worn these the last two summers and they are surprisingly durable. My only problem with them is that they don't come in wider sizes. We have to wear them on the last holes.

My daughter loves these shoes and so do we. Previously we only had her wear pedipeds because we think they are great for baby feet, but she's now a toddler (17m) and these are perfect for a busy walker. I love that she can't take them off by herself as she's lost several pairs of pedipeds that way. They seem comfortable and adjustable at two places. The soles are nonslip and thick for lots of use. The leather easily cleans up.

I love salt waters sandals. My daugther is on the go all the time and even when she gets them wet or dirty they clean up and dry off just the same.

Love these sandals! Have bought them now for 3 summers in a row and been able to hand down the out grown pairs to my younger daughter! They hold up wonderfully to lots and lots of play! And are very versatile in terms of wardrobe! I will continue to buy them until they no longer have a big enough size. :) On top of everything my very opinionated 3 year old also LOVES them!!!!! A must have sandal. :)
