JBU by Jambu Women's Regional Water Ready Sandal

I have a pair of JAMBU that I don’t wear often so I hesitated in buying these but decided to “pull the trigger” and purchase them. I’m glad I did. I like the looks of these better than my other ones, especially how more of the foot I is covered. I could wear socks with these and the socks won’t show much, although that’s not my style, but you just never know. I originally bought these to wear paddle boarding but now I’m thinking they would look good with some of my pants, not too mention they’d be great for hiking. I guess I’ll have to find something else for paddle boarding. My big toe does come to end but a half size bigger is too big in the heel and slips.

This worked well for a summer. It let my feet breathe and feel cool in the hot summer days. Very comfortable and good for walking more than 20,000 steps a day overseas in Korea and Japan. However, the removable sole started to stick to my feet and come out of the shoe each time which quickly became annoying. It isn't easy to reinsert the sole insert and have it sit in the right spot to wear the shoes again. I recommend this for a short term wear but absolutely will not get it again.

Love this brand - this is my third pair - and 2nd of this particular style. It's a fabulous "in between" shoe, especially for transitional seasons (spring to summer/fall to winter). I like to wear mine with low profile socks for extra comfort. They're sturdy enough for a lot of walking/travel days, but stylish enough to wear to a casual dinner. The blue denim color works with almost every outfit.

I bought sizes 11 and 12 as I wasn't sure how the fit would be. Strangely, they both feel the same, which is not good, in my opinion. They seem sturdy [haven't taken a long hike with them yet], better than the Teva fisherman sandals I have now [hard to read information inside the shoe; S/N1?203?0; F27421L, made in Viet Nam; the soles are wearing out thou the top looks fine.]

I bought these primarily as a Water Shoe. I don’t want to hike in these as they don’t seem sturdy or comfortable enough for miles of hiking, but there are some State Park trails where I live that the trails include crossing streams and swimming holes so I will put these in my backpack and change as needed to keep my hiking shoes dry.

Very cute styling, however they were not comfortable to wear. The size I selected was correct but there were many pointy, scratchy areas along the toe and top of foot. They are meant to used in water so without socks. I predicted many blisters and scrapes if worn for an extended time. I returned them.
