River flop or mountain sandals

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

These flop are amazing! There isn’t much of a break in period and I found them to be extremely comfortable. The straps have been good but I had to break in the shoe a little so that the straps wouldn’t squeeze as much. I personally find the ankle bit to fall a bit unless I really tighten it. I bough a pair of these for my mom as well and she loves them! And She noted that the strap didn’t fall her ankle and wasn’t a problem for her. The shoes have been great but I wish there were longer straps for more wrapping style and security options.

Astral Rosa - Chaco Alternative

Familiarity:

I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share

These are a nice, light weight sandal with great grip. Nice alternative to the uber strappy/chunky chaco styles. I bought these sandals because of the power strap option, which makes them more secure for longer walks/hikes and rugged terrain than normal flip flops. For half sizes, Astral recommends sizing down. Generally speaking, the sandals fit great. My feet are a little wider than the sandal, but I don't find it uncomfortable. I have to tighten the straps pretty tight, otherwise the heel strap tends to slide off. At the same time, making the straps that tight causes rubbing in some areas, which can be uncomfortable. I'm hoping this problem resolves itself as I break the sandals in even more! Looking forward to more miles in these sandals! All in all, an excellent sandal for the price point

High quality sandal

I've put it through the wringer

I've used these sandals for 3 whole summers and they're still holding up great!! They offer great tread and a removable strap. Without the strap it's a simple flip flop. With the strap it's a high tech sandal.

A Lighter Alternative to Chacos

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

I have always begrudgingly worn Chacos for water activities despite being hard to put on and very heavy. I would have never worn them in a casual situation as I feel they were clunky and honestly kind of ugly. ASTRALS are the solution! Much lighter, easier to slip on and love the power strap or regular flip flop option. I will wear these all summer instead of just on river trips.

Hi! I usually wear a 7.5. Should I size up or down? Thank you. :)
