I hate shoes. Always have. When my Minnetonka moccasins, which I used as house slippers, went belly up, I dug these out of my closet, a pair I had bought to visit friends who said I would need the to wade in the Gorge du Tarn. Anyway, I never wore them, but they seemed to serve well as house slippers ... and I couldn't bear to take them off when running some errands ... so long story short, I've been wearing them almost nonstop for days. They are so comfortable. And barefoot walking seems to be good for both my spine and my feet. I ordered a second pair in black as a back up. The one downside I've noticed is that the nylon construction does run. Not sure how that started but I have one on each shoe. But at this price, I don't really mind. Very comfortable. Good traction.

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!

These shoes are attractive and they served me very well on a rocky beach and in the ocean when the ocean floor had rocks. They were comfortable to walk in on the beach and on walks from the parking lot to beach. I'd give them 5 stars except they didn't seem to dry all that quickly. Wore them in the morning and they weren't totally dry until the next morning. The size 8 shoe fit perfectly, and I usually wear an 8-1/2 or 9.

I had also purchased the Speedo Women's Beach Runner Water Shoe, but returned them because the insole on both shoes was completely detached. The workmanship seemed poor on the Speedo for this reason. I'd recommend the Cudas if you are comparing them.

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.

this is the 2nd pair of these water shoes that i have purchased..they were very comfortable and cute looking but the first pair fell part after i washed them,, really , a water shoe? the 2nd pair, after getting wet, had the sole pull away from the bottom of the shoe in less than a months wear of them. i tried to return them but there was no option.. very disappointed. these are WATER SHOES, they should be able to handle walking thru the rain in a parking lot to my car!
