DREAM PAIRS Women's Walking Sport Athletic Sandals Comfort Open Toe Casual Outdoor Hiking Summer Shoes

I purchased these to replace an old similar pair from L.L. Bean. These are just as good for around half the price. They were comfortable right out of the box. No rubbing, no blisters. Walked through airports and on hikes, and they are awesome! And attractive too. Adjustable Velcro straps in the front and back and across the ankle. I received several compliments on them. They have a comfortable food bed and some arch support. I usually wear either 8 or 8 1/2 and these are an 8 and fit perfectly.

Soft, fits true to size, adjustable on back and front two straps, non slip, cushiony, style is nice and NOT cheaply made. I have issues with my foot with heel damage and swelling; this sandal works great, it’s soft, and I love how the back is extremely soft and doesn’t scratch, it’s very cushiony. I can wear them for a long time without foot pain, it isn’t causing my arch to flatten and it hasn’t caused pain in any area of the foot, and has not caused swelling. They are great shoes! I highly recommend! Price is extremely reasonable and the shipping was fast and properly packaged to protect the sandals. Very durable shoe and versatile, I love how ALL straps are adjustable not just the front one but all even the back strap is!

Wow! I love these shoes. So comfortable even after wearing for a long time. Fit perfectly since there are three adjustable straps. If your feet swell, easy to adjust. Would also adjust well for a wide foot. Nice arch support…not too high. Lightweight shoe. I care more about comfort than appearance but these shoes still look nice. More sporty than dressy.

Attractive, supportive

This is 5 stars after my first long walk. Scenario: sub tropical San Antonio, I’m 73 yrs old, 15 lbs overweight, the last few months walking almost 2 miles per day. After an internet search this past November, I found an affordable walking shoe that was recommended for seniors for safety and comfort. They are mesh top for ventilation, slip on for secure ankle support and a specially constructed sole so your foot won’t wobble. I couldn’t get them on until I bought a shoe horn because besides being a small opening to put your foot in, the heel would collapse and when I grabbed the shoe ankle to pull up, not only could my fingers barely fit because of the tightness, but the fabric would slip out of my grasp. That’s when I bought a shoe horn and with a few wiggles I was able to work the shoes on. But another issue remained: because of the snugness, by the time I finally got the shoes on, my ankle socks were bunched up on the bottoms until walking for a few minutes. But past all that, once on and walking, they were definitely secure and not uncomfortably tight, which does give a feeling of safety.San Antonio begins to heat up around mid-April and is now in the high 80’s, the balls of my feet were getting uncomfortably hot from the pavement, to the extent that I had to cut my walks short. To describe the heat on the bottoms of my feet, it was burning/stinging for about the last 15 minutes. This lead me to look for something else and give these sandals a try.After reading a lot of reviews, I figured it wouldn’t be a big loss if these sandals don’t work out.After only 1 walk, I’ve decided I’m not going to give these up. #1 easy and quick to put on and adjust to a comfortable tightness. #2 (still wearing ankle socks) no bunching of socks and probably more important, no slipping inside an open toe sandal. #3 very hot and humid today (to the point of having to fully shower/shampoo and change soggy clothes) and the pavement heat did not transfer through the soles! #4 I noticed the flexibility of the soles, I didn’t pay attention to this with the other walking shoes, but now I know that those are not that flexible. You know how your foot rolls from heel to toe? —-while on today’s walk, I was very aware that my whole foot was being exercised. Which now causes me to wonder about something: I was getting occasional foot cramps a few hours after walks in the other shoes. I wonder if fully flexing the foot with these sandals is better for foot health—-? #5 another unexpected thing I noticed is the deep spring back cushion under the heels. The first impact is on the heel and is exaggerated when going downhill at a brisk pace, this is a huge positive difference between these sandals and the recommended walking shoes I’ve been wearing. #6 my feet were tired and somewhat achy after walks in the other shoes, I accepted it as probably due to my age. But now I’m thinking they are just too bulky and stiff. My feet are not tired after today’s walk. This is the same walk at the same pace and under increased heat & humidity. I can’t predict how they will wear or how long they will last, but frankly, that’s not as important to me as these other positives.

these sandals are wonderful! The size is a perfect fit with 3 places to adjust the shoes: front near toes, ankle and heel. The velcro tabs and material are high quality. The color is nice . The sandals a very comfortable, light and balanced. I will purchase this style again.Also great for walking , water resistance and easy to put on and off.

Update: Written on 7/17/25: Within about three months after purchase, the in- and outsoles were not taking good care of my feet and I had to stop wearing these. Started having pain in my arch. The outsoles still look okay, so I have to assume it’s the interior that gave up. I just wore them for everyday life and dog walking on the street in the summer. No hiking. I still have them and may start to use just for working in the garden.Ordered in size 7 M which is my usual size for sandals.Comfy insoleHeavier outsole and good traction for hiking and water activitiesStraps adjust to fit at all pointsNice basic color scheme.Bought these for 2 x daily dog walks in Florida on hot streets and hiking through uneven and wet but not rocky terrain.So far excellent.These are not Tevas, so I don't expect them to last 4-5 years. Hoping for good durability and will report back in a few months to see how these do. My favorite Tevas that did last for 5 years are no longer available. Boo Bad!!!!! But happy to find these Dream Pairs as a replacement for now. This is the 6th pair of hiking sandals I've bought this year and the only pair that lasted beyond 2 hours indoors and then back to where they came from. So I'm a happy camper right now.

I like the velcro on these sandals because in high heat my feet always swell - to the point that I can't buckle leather straps on my other sandals. The velcro gives me the flexibility to loosen or tighten the sandal so it always fits. These sandals are very comfortable and good for walking. They seem true to size. I'm very happy with mine.
