They are cute, seem to be great shoes but..., January 30, 2011
This review is from: Sanuk Women's June Bug Sidewalk Surfer (Apparel)
I wanted to have these shoes, I ordered a pair in green and received them really fast, I couldn't wait to try them on. when I did, sadly the shoes did not fit me. They run a size a larger so instead of ordering a size 8 which is what I normally wear, I should have ordered a size 7. I tried to get another pair in 7 but by the time I went online the price had already gone back up (I initially purchased them for $18). I gave the size 8 shoes to my sister who normally wears a size 9, she really liked them and has worn them, she says they are comfortable. I will order a pair once the price drops, in fact I might order two or three pairs if the price is right!

Love Sanuk, but dissappointed by June Bug, May 3, 2011
This review is from: Sanuk Women's June Bug Sidewalk Surfer (Apparel)
I have 2 other Sanuks - I purchased them before they started to make shoes geared toward women. I love the brand! That said, this pair of Sanuks was my first marketed toward women. Sadly, I was disappointed.
First, Sanuk's big marketing ploy is "these aren't shoes, they're sandals". Well, sandals they're not. Try wearing them without socks - they'll start to smell after just a couple of wears. And everyone knows that you don't wear socks with sandals (unless you're an old man). Turns out that the anti-microbial bed that may/may not be in these shoes does nothing b/c the layer next to your foot is canvas.
Next, I have a wide foot. I know that Sanuk website says that these shoes are for narrow feet. Problem is, I didn't read the website until AFTER I bought them on Amazon. Still, my wide foot fits into these shoes and doesn't look weird. It just smooshes my foot in a rather uncomfortable way. Just know what you're getting unless you have petite feet. I wish they made nicer women's shoes that were wider, but they don't.
They say that they're 'breathable', but they're certainly less breathable than my other Sanuks.
It definitely runs a size large, like a previous review mentioned.
Other than that, these shoes are really nice. They're great for business casual (or just plain casual). Easy to slip on to take my dogs on walks. They're light, and they're flat. I was looking for a 'barefoot feel' at a bargain price. While this might be a viable option with someone with narrow feet, it just doesn't work for me.

Love them!, November 8, 2011
On any given day you will find me wearing my Vibram Five Fingers or Birkenstocks. I love and need comfortable shoes to wear everyday. I bought these shoes to wear on vacation and had very little time to break them in. Good news was that they really don't need any break in time! From the first day I wore them, I was in love! Not only do I wear them around town doing errands, I also wear them to work. I am a nurse and I'm on my feet for 12+ hours a night. Comfortable shoes are a must and these are absolutely comfortable and cute too! I ordered a size 7, the size I normally wear. They fit perfectly.
