adidasWomen's Adilette Aqua Slide Sandal
D**I
Two strange things...
I always have a hard time believing reviews which say a shoe is too big or too small. But these sandals definitely run large! I wear a size 8. Ordered a size 7. A tad on the small side, but just fine, no problem keeping them. A week later, I see the actual size imprinted on the sandal as a size 6! Weird. Based off of that, it’s a safe bet these suckers run at least 1.5-2 sizes too large.On to the second oddity. The first day I wore them, I felt like a tiny piece of glass was stuck in my foot. I chalked it up to me having stepped on something before putting the sandals on, then the sandal rubbing it in. Well, it happened again, the next time on the bridge of my foot. And then it happened, yes, again. Different place every time. I really think there are fine nano particles of something sharp either on top or embedded in these things. I plan to wash them very thoroughly and carefully, hoping that it is some fluke.Just be aware....Otherwise, very cute and sporty slides that make me feel like a college student again (not that we necessarily want to relive those days).UPDATE:Sad to say, I had to pitch these. After thoroughly washing them with hot soapy water, by hand, I was still experiencing the sharp pricking pain from something that is assuredly embedded in these sandals. Different spots every time. I am CERTAIN it was nothing I had stepped on beforehand. Really a shame- Adidas apparently needs to step up the quality control.

Uncomfortable and They Charge to Return
I don’t know where all these positive reviews are coming from. Though cute, they are very very uncomfortable. There is no foam on the sole and they are made of hard plastic. I doubt they are actually adidas. I tried to cancel my order before it shipped but it didn’t allow me to do so. I am returning them but they charge 7$ for the return. Extremely disappointed- do not purchase.

Authentic-note the “Aqua” designation
These are authentic from what I can tell. They are the adilette “aqua” slides that retail for $25. They are not cloudfoam/comfort plus (retail $35) and not the original adilette (retail $45). They are the cheapest of the adilette slides and the materials reflect that.I liked/wanted the silver color, knew they wouldn’t be as comfortable as my cloudfoam plus, and realistically prob won’t last as long as the OG adilette slides. For house shoes or shower shoes, these are great. For anything else, spend the extra money and buy the cloudfoam plus or OGs.

Don't think these are real Adidas. Run too large.Cheap material.
Where did all these good reviews come from? I ordered a six, and the width is totally too big. It would fit someone with a foot wide as an elephant's foot -- what the heck is wrong with these? My first thought is they're counterfeit. The material is so flimsy and cheap, sort of like a styrofoam cup. I sent them right back.

Great fit, look great!
Adidas can always be counted on to deliver. These slides fit as expected, are very comfortable and are cute as they can be.

BEST slides ever
Awesome slides, super light. Ordered a 7, received a 6 but kept it because they fit perfect!

Perfect!!
I’m a true women’s US7.5 fit (Nike tennis shoes I generally wear an 8) as reference. I followed other reviews and went down to a 7 and they couldn’t fit more perfect! I’ll let the slides speak for themself, see my pictures 😍 I love that the slides are made of one piece and not the separate band over foot that is attached, that always finds a way to eventually come apart. And the blue color is EVERYTHING!!! It’s worth mentioning too, I received my slides before the expected delivery date.

So comfortable, perfect for dorm-living
I love these slides! I purchased them with the intent of wearing them in my dorm since my last pair of "dorm slippers" fell apart. I love the bright mint/aqua coloring and these slides are extremely comfortable, both with and without socks on. They do not appear to stain or scuff easily, which was a concern of mine considering the light coloring. One thing that I thought was strange was that I ordered a size 7 which normally fits me perfectly with other shoes, but the slides are marked as a size 6. Nevertheless, they still fit perfectly. Overall I am very happy with this purchase and I hope to get more pairs soon so that I can wear them outside, too.

Not the same quality as the Adidas Cloudfoam!
They're ok, but they were a 2nd order since my initial order (true to size) just did not fit.For my surprise they weren't the Adidas "Cloudfoam" like I initially ordered (the 1st time), but it was NOT mentioned on the advert that it was the Cloudfoam's and I just DID NOT NOTICED (my bad).So apart of my disappointment on the purchased and to avoid the hassle of returning for the same purchase for the 2nd time (1st due to the size and this time for the incorrect description or misleading information), I'll bite the bullet and keep them... but under protest.The quality is mediumly acceptable, but they ARE NOT comparable to the Adidas "Cloudfoam". These ones are inferior (in my opinion), and they were more expensive as well...(even on sports direct they're cheaper...).

Great quality and comfortable but you MUST go a size up
I wanted some good quality sliders but never really liked the look of the classic black/navy-white striped Adidas ones. However, these black ones are really nice and unobtrusive. Well made and very comfortable. You should definitely order up a size though; I‘m usually a size 3.5/4 and ordered a size 5 and they fit perfectly.

Sizes
Don't buy your size these are just about the smallest sizes ever I had to but a full size up and still soak them in very hot water for a day to get the to fit and not very well, stupidly I tried them on and slightly damaged one so couldn't send back but I would have, be careful when you purchase if you indeed purchase after reading thisVERY UNCOMFORTABLE

Very very poor
Wrongly sized by at least 2 sizes, I worked in the footwear industry for years, also tread at the back wearing away very quickly, have had far cheaper pairs that are of greater quality and comfort

Be careful re size
I normally take a UK size 11 for shoes. Having read other comments I ordered a size 12 which are a little tight. Im told they will stretch a little, hope so. No way I would have gotten my feet into an 11
