I live in southern California so I wear flip flops much of the year and these are my absolute favorites. I have many pairs of havaianas, but these have better arch support, and I can walk around for hours and not be bothered.

I wear a lot of flip flops and these were my absolute favorite. I paid $30 for them on sale. However, I only had them about six months when the piece between the toes broke and they are no longer wearable. I contacted CROCS and they basically told me to buy another pair.

I raved about them for months- so comfortable! So cute! Then the toestrap broke on one. I looked at the other one and could see it was about to break too. I contacted Crocs but because it was past the return time, they said they could do nothing for me. Huh! Some customer service. You'd think they'd want to keep their customers happy. Guess not. The canvas is the problem- I'm sure the regular or the suede capris would last longer- but I won't buy Crocs again because even though I shelled out $40 for a pair of flipflops they clearly don't care if I'm ever a repeat customer again- so I won't be.

I ordered these in the black canvas along with a couple of pairs of the suede strap Capris - the suede fit me perfectly, but these were much too long AND wide. Part of the problem, I'm sure, is that I'm really a half size, which crocs, annoyingly, doesn't make. Just be forewarned that these run a bit big. I had to give mine away because they were much too large, but they were very comfy when I wore them around the house.

I'm a croc sandal fanatic anyway, and these are incredible too! However, in any flipflop (thong) style, I've learned to order a size smaller. (I ordered an 7 in this, and my non-thong style sandals are 8's.). The color and fabric in these are awesome!

Cute, comfortable, but sizing is off; annoying because I had to return for a smaller size. If you buy, recommmend ordering one size smaller than usual.

I ended up returning these. They were cute but felt like one more unnecessary thing in my closet that I didn't really need.

A friend talked me into buying my first Crocs last year, raving over their comfort. You know what I'm talking about: the shoes with the large, rounded toe area that kinda resembles a humpback whale and makes you look like you have Fred Flintstone feet? Yep, those are the ones!

Well, after I bought a pair in conservative black, I found that they were just as comfortable as everyone said. But comfort or no comfort, I seldom wear them because I'm so used to my cheap, colorful, cute, rubber flip-flops. I wear them all year 'round, which is easy for me because I live in Sunny Cali and, fortunately, don't have a foot problem.

But I digress: the topic now is these "fresh and fun Capri Canvas flip-flops." (I prefer calling them flip-flops rather than thongs, for obvious reasons...lol)

Hoping these more stylish shoes would be as comfy as their ugly sisters, I decided to try one of the less expensive models in order to gauge the comfort factor. And this time I selected them in white with mango because it's such an "in" color and matches so many garments in my wardrobe.

Needless to say, the cushioned, contoured, massaging sole is so comfortable that I ended up with different versions of this shoe in many cheerful colors. And like the ad says: "I don't have to be a jet-setter to look like one."

I'm surprised the "fashionista" haven't chosen me as their poster girl.

Bought a size 9 (women)--my actual shoe size is even a 9 wide. The strap is so loose, I could not walk around in these a long time (grocery shopping) or sprint for a bus. Since only whole sizes, there is no way I could fit into an 8 (my foot would hang off the back). Still, they are extremely comfortable when I'm on my feet all day, and super-cute! Good for around the house, doing dishes, laundry, etc.

Received the shoe and the sizing is a bit off. The size we ordered was basiclaly one size bigger than stated. Returned that product and ordered a smaller size and they fit the same way. The sizes are not true to size and the canvas thong part is very stretchy which makes the shoe fall off the foot.
