Bought prior to a month long trip driving around Europe and these were perfect. Comfortable both to walk around in and even to drive in [Of course without socks. Who wears sandals with socks?] Indeed they were worn almost exclusively for the entire month bar a few days in Austria when it rained incessantly!Easily adjusted and they look good too. They appear to be fairly hard wearing though it's difficult to judge after only a couple of months summer wear. Would I buy again? Definitely.However, I feel there is a flaw in material quality, specifically the metal look that holds some of the straps together.After about a year of use, the metal loop which holds the heel strap snapped in two,

When you count up the amount you spend on slippers PER YEAR, you realise you might as well just stump up for these and be done with it.Even what are considered as good/well made slippers don't even last that long.After the first wash, it's all downhill from there with slippers, and you have to wash them when you first get them anyway, so they really don't last long at all. I have gone through three pairs of slippers in one year before, and they were around £10-£15 if i remember correctly.Either the stitching comes away or sole comes away, or the insole becomes so hard it's like walking on concrete, or in some cases, it's all of the aforementioned that happens!These 'sandals' (slippers for me)

The sandals are quite stiff when first wearing them, I use them as slippers in the house so wear them most of the day, every day. It took three full days before I realised I wasn't conscious of them anymore so I'm taking that to mean I've adapted and they've broken in a bit.I've had them for a couple of weeks now and they seem to be well made and sturdy. My feet are warm despite it being winter and I'm really pleased with them.I bought these to replace my last pair of Clarks sandals which I'd had for about 15 years, this pair were half the price of a new pair of Clarks sandals and feel just as sturdy.

.I have to report that eventually these do wear out although you'll see that my old ones still have some life left. It's just that I'm not allowed to wear them out to posh places anymore so they are relegated to jobs round the garden.The ones above lasted around 3 years of hard graft. I really found that these sandals are ideal if you want some which are really tough and for walking. About the only downside is that they are quite heavy. They are also comfortable and reasonably wide fitting.I was lucky to find a pair on offer but really any price under £50 is not bad for these.

Having come back from a 2 week trip around America, I wore these everyday, climbed up various trails around the Grand Canyon and Yosemite National Parks and covered around 50 miles on very uneven rocks and slopes and very high gradients, they were flawless, just as good as hiking boots, I did wear socks with these as I usually do not with sandals, but I found if I diddnt then after 15 or so mins Everytime I walked there would be a fart like sound coming from trapped air underneath my foot which contacts the top of the sandal

Top quality craftsmanship and materials as you would expect from CAT.However in size 10,left sandal was just fine but right was little too small to extent that toe was pocking out slightly.May be it's just my feet but may pay trying one size up first.At 500g each,these CATs are noticeably heavy on the feet.Mainly due to rugged sole that is designed for serious trekking/hill climbing/etc.Perfect shoes for outdoor activities on hostile terrains but way to bulky and heavy for urban use,so I had to send mine back.

This is my 2nd pair of CAT sandals. My 1st lasted about 15yrs (with a couple of minor repairs along the way ?)The simple fact is that they're very comfortable and extremely hard wearing. I've seen them priced at £70 but I got mine for £45 which is the realistic price for excellent quality, and if they last as long as the others I'll be very happy ?

Got these 3months ago and now Nov2016. Size 11 and fits great after broken in, and I find them very cosy to wear due to these sandals having extra like gel padding under your feet's. Great grip and I can see them lasting due to High made from CAT.Very Happy Amazon customer with thanks towards seller for Great shipping and care with coms.

Not quite as rugged as the pair I bought in South Africa but there's no real veldt (bush) in England. With snakes and soldier ants to be careful of.These are superb but it is better to buy slightly smaller than larger as all straps are fully adjustable but ant be over shortened.Trouble is, sandals are too warm, even in the winter :)

I have been searching for a long time to find a suitable replacement for some Camel sandals that I used to practically live in and now I found them with these amazing sandals. They fit perfectly ( I am a size 8 - 8.5 ) and are so comfortable. They appear to be very well made and I am very happy with these and can recommend them

I owned a pair of 3 strap cat sandals for 20 yrs and loved them. I could not get these any more so opted for the Cat Giles 2 strap sandal they are very good. The Cat Giles has a flat foot bed whereas the original 3 strap had a sculpted footbed that was very comfortable. These sandals are a good buy and comfortable.

Designed for serious use as very sturdy materials and design. Quite comfortable to wear,and should last for ages. Not a poseur sandal or designer gear,but made for a purpose. Quite expensive,but good value compared with fashion labels.Derek Mitchell.

Walked miles in these sandals on rough terrain in Southern Spain, no blisters, really comfortable, don't make my feet sweat loads, just perfect, great grip, straps easily adjusted. Only regret is I didn't buy them for my holiday last year!!

Tried these sandals for a couple of hours at home, now waiting for the warmer weather to give these sandals a try out, outside, they look very strong, value for money, reasonable, hope to get some wear from them in the spring.
