Slip on the fun-loving North Face Ava Sandal for an afternoon smoothie run. Two-tone detail on the strap adds a splash of color to the day when you're splashing around at the beach.

Bottom Line: North Face quality for relaxation at the ocean.

Half-sizes order up... (in my experience)

By:
December 15, 2010

Well-made for lightweight flip-flops. Unlike other reviewers I don't believe the sizes run large. I'm a 7.5 medium width, so based on the reviews I purchased a size 7, but found them to be snug in the straps and the footbed was just a wee bit short on length. I gave them to a friend, but I ordered another pair in a size 8 and found those to be the right fit.

The only seeming oddity as far as fit goes is the toe room. There's plenty of room for long toes!

How can they charge more for a size 8 than a size 10. The ad

How can they charge more for a size 8 than a size 10. The ad they have flashing on other sites shows a black flip flop for $8.38 and they are $25.95. What a piece of work this is.

You'll see it a lot. My guess is that the most discounted are previous season and/or the last few of a closeout, but I could be wrong.

Great flip flops

I have had these each year, they run a full size larger so if you usually wear an 8 order a 7.....these are much better then Teva in my opinion. Get them!!

I think they run small nowadays (see my review from December 2010), but maybe in the past they ran large. In addition to my own experience, my friend who normally wears an 8.5 fit well in a 9; an 8 would've been too small.

Write your answer here... They run big and fit too loose. I tried them on and was not happy. The straps are very thin and unconfortable. Hope that helps.

super sandal

By:

My daughter gave me a pair of North Face Ava sandals and I was hooked. So nice to find a simple basic thong sandal that has a good cushy sole with a little instep support and no froo-froos. Froo-froos like extra straps, stitching, hardware, etc. just end up rubbing raw places on my feet. Also nice in the Ava is the foot bed that is not cupped and lipped all around. Most sandals seem to be designed that way recently and the edge doesn't let the foot spread out and take it's own natural shape. I like the Ava so much I bought 3 pair. Yay for North Face!

I have to agree with everyone else... they do run big. I wear an 8 and ordered an 8...TOO BIG. I also didn't like the straps, too thin. I had to send them back as just wasn't that impressed especially for North Face. I own almost everything North Face and this just wasn't up to par for me:(

Best flip flops out there!

By:
July 2, 2009

I can't say anything bad about them. When they were covered with seaweed the other day from a low tide excursion, I threw them in the washer and they came out looking pretty as new. I wear them so much because they are so comfy. So I guess the soles could be thicker so they don't wear out. Other than that, perfect!

Awesome Sandals

Bought these for my girlfriend. She loves them. Most especially that they have an anatomical arch support. Hard to find a lot of sandals with arch supports.
