Shoppers are swapping out their usual footwear for what’s being hailed as the “most comfortable” pair of Crocs sandals. The shoes are now on offer at Amazon ahead of its annual Prime Day sale, reduced from the original price of 拢54.99.
The Crocs Women’s Brooklyn Low Wedge Clog comes in a variety of hues, with prices kicking off at 拢36.79, though they may vary depending on the size chosen. The array of colours includes options like sandstone, latte mushroom, khaki bone, metallic champagne, and others, each with its own price tag.
The sandals are described as the “go-to comfort shoe that you’re sure to fall deeper in love with day after day.” The Amazon website encourages shoppers to avoid leaving Crocs in the heat or sun as it can cause the shoes to “shrink or warp.”
Alternatively, several other retailers offer a variety of sandal styles. New Look carries the Wide Fit Gold Faux Leather Crossover Strap Platform Sandals for 拢35.99, while Next offers the Friends Like These Black Wide Fit Minimal Block Low Heel Sandals for 拢24. Meanwhile, River Island stocks the Beige Buckle Platform Wedge Sandals for 拢40.
With an impressive 4.5-star rating online, the Crocs sandals have amassed over 14,000 reviews. One satisfied customer shared: “Like walking on air. These are the most comfortable sandals I have.
“I even worked a 12 hour exhibition in them and I was the only one not complaining about my feet at the end of the day. I’m a size 7 but had an 8 had to send the 7 back as they looked small on me.”
Another happy shopper commented: “Don’t normally write a review but just have to say these sandals are so comfortable! Feels like you’re floating on air!
“So trendy as well. Fit perfectly, quality is second to none and durability is great, will last forever if you look after them! Great value for money, so light and great arch support, will definitely be my go to sandals.”
Not all shoppers were pleased, however. One person commented: “I use it only for a day my foot was bleeding the sandals caused me blisters and they were uncomfortable.”
A second disgruntled customer wrote: “Bought my usual UK size 7 and they felt comfortable when trying them on and walking around the house, but after taking them a walk outside they eventually started rubbing horribly at the upper strap and around my pinky toes, and gave me painful blisters. I was limping home.”
A third shopper chimed in: “Really comfy and lightweight. These Crocs wedges are way comfier than I expected! Super lightweight, and the cushioned sole makes them easy to wear all day. The design is simple but stylish enough to dress up or down.”
Another reviewer said: “I ended up wearing these everyday of my 2 week trip to Italy as they were more comfortable than the trainers I had planned to wear. I was reluctant to get them as I really dislike traditional Crocs, but they’re honestly my new favourite shoe.
“Great travel shoe as they are waterproof so I was able to wear them to the beach, pool and even in the rain. The croc material is quite strong so even after excessive use, I haven’t noticed the sole wearing down at all which is pretty impressive. I’d highly recommend!”
