CudasWomen's, Flatwear Water Shoe

Tried them out first on dry land for an evening. Nice and comfy. No blisters. Good sign.Tried them out in water; they get very waterlogged. As such, they don't dry very fast either. Wore them in the pool this morning, poured the extra water out of my shoe just before ten this morning, left them out to dry and the shoes are still pretty soggy at five this evening. Not the end of the world, but glad I tested this before packing for vacation, now I know to plan for them to stay pretty wet and not be an all day shoe. Hang on to the bag they come in, bigger sizes won't fit into a zipper bag and they'll soak your gym/travel bag if not contained.They're comfy, easy on the feet. Definite spring in my step during water aerobics class this morning, and kept any germies off my feet too, both in the pool, on the pool deck and in the shower.Others mentioned slipping. I don't think these are very slip-inducing. Certainly less slippery than worn out crocs or crummy flip flops. If you're an old woman, you have a greater chance of slipping no matter what, don't blame the shoes. I'm not an old lady, and I'm not naive to think that a pair of shoes will prevent a fall. Just use some common sense and you'll be fine.Sizing. Does seem a little bit big, but when you have big feet, you pick a big size. I think the next smallest size would be too small. Doesn't really bug me much. Better than too tight.Good first pair of water shoes. I didn't want to spend a ton before I knew how I'd like wearing a shoe in the water. I'm happy with my choice. Glad they're not really ugly like some water shoes out there.

To be honest, I hate water shoes. I hate it when people wear them on sandy beaches. I only bought these because I was going to Tahiti on my honeymoon and it was recommended by friends to get them since the sand below some of the overwater bungalows was rocky. Let me tell you...these were amazing and lifesavers. Without these water shoes I would have been stuck in my bungalow the entire time. The sand in Tikehau was super rough and mostly coral pieces. You definitely needed some water shoes to get around the beaches, especially if you were going to remote beaches. Even when we went shark/ray feeding these came in really handy. They run a little big (I usually wear a 7.5 and ordered a 7 and they were perfect). They are easy to carry, wear and honestly...no one is looking at your feet. My only complaint is that the insoles slip out after you wear them a couple times but it's not a big deal, they go right back in and didn't bother me a bit. If you are traveling to a island locale and aren't sure about the terrain, I would definitely recommend getting these.

The positive reviews that I read before deciding to purchase these shoes were super in helping me to make the right decision. No slipping and super comfortable and breathable! I have had these for less than a week, but I have worn them every day with much satisfaction. They are an attractive shade of sky blue. Most importantly, they do not slip on wet surfaces exactly as described. I had been looking for a solution to the slippery surface of my tile floors when I mop. All of my shoes would slip and slide on the floor when it was wet. I tried barefoot, and socks, and even these funny cloth slipper-like shoes designed for wearing while mopping. None of these seemed to work. The Cudas are perfect! No slipping whatsoever, and my feet stay clean and comfortable. They are great for wearing around the house indoors and out! I am certain that I will want to purchase another pair soon to have as a backup. Thank you to those also who told me that the shoes run big. I usually wear between a 7 1/2 to 8 1/2. I decided to purchase the size 7 and the still have a little wiggle room - overall a good fit!

I got a pair of these for my husband and one for myself for our trip to Mexico. We read that our resort's beach was pretty rocky so we wanted to wear them into the ocean to protect our feet. I got them for each of us in one size smaller than we normally wear, because we wanted a tight fit so they wouldn't get sucked off in the water. I found it odd that even at 1-1.5 sizes smaller they were not tight at all. They worked fine for our purposes...there were only small waves, and no strong currents so the shoes stayed on and protected our feet well. I like how the rubber goes up over the toe to protect that area too and not just the sole. However, I doubt they would stay on very long in the ocean with strong waves or currents. I gave them 4 stars for running larger than they should. I normally wear an 8 or 8.5 and the size 7 wasn't snug!

I ordered these shoes for a recent vacation. I wear a 7 1/2 wide and after reading the reviews, I ordered a size 7. I should have ordered a size 8 because they were too tight. If my feet were a medium or narrow width, the half size lower would not have been a problem. I didn't order them with enough time to return them and get a larger size before I left for vacation, but that's my fault. I wore them one day and got blisters on my little toes. Sorry to say, I left them in Mexico. I would order these again, next time in a larger size to accommodate my wide feet and with plenty of time to return them if needed.

One shoe fits a wee bit snug in the toe area, but I ordered my usual size and all in all they are fine - they go on easily and stay on even through my hour long Aqua Fitness class. I am happy with how they help my footing on the pool bottom during exercises and seem to help with my plantar fasciitis pain, although I wouldn't say they had much if any arch support...still, they do cushion the bottom of the foot. Plus I had no slipping at all when walking pool side or through the locker room. I would buy them again.

In the picture it showed thicker bottom and it is not cushion.

great fit, very comfy, they did rub against my feet and caused a small blister but likely due to "new shoe syndrome", overall very comfortable and looks great too.

As per other reviews, I ordered a size smaller in the 9 (I am usually a 10) and it feels like a good fit. My feet re 9 3/4'' from heel to large toe tip. I like this shoe as the entire toe area and heel are covered with a flexible yet protective extra layer - no toe stubbing! I bought it for my trip to Mexico, can't wait to use it!

I would order a 1/2 size below your shoe size so that they fit tight. They worked well in the water and dried fast.

Ordered for my wife. She likes it. It does fit as expected, the color as shown, soft, nice, good protection for your foot.
