Review by Helen Murray:

I ordered two pairs of Crocs - one pair of thongs and one pair of cayman crocs. I used the sizing chart provided and ordered both pairs in M5/W7. However, when they arrived, while the Thongs fit perfectly, with room to wiggle, the Caymans were way too small (I'd almost say a full size too small). The Thongs were "made in China" and the Caymans "made in Mexico". I went to my local store and discovered that they receive Croc orders which are often made in multiple countries. It would appear to me that there is no "standard" mold used. So beware - just because you have tried them on in a store and think you have the correct size - you may end up getting a larger or smaller size, depending on where they are manufactured.

At first I didn't know what to make of this shoe/sandal... it's lightweight, comfortable and "convertible", which is a nice feature that I've never seen in a sandal before. First, I'll break down the benefits, then give the low-points.

"LIGHTWEIGHT & COMFORTABLE"

This is probably the most attractive feature of the CROC, because it adds to the comfort and makes you feel like you're walking on air. By far the most comfortable things I've ever worn and I'm a picky shoe person. I have only owned 1 pair of sandals for the past 6 years and have hated every other sandal I've tried on, so these CROCS are definitely special.

"CONVERTIBLE"

You can turn the "sandal" into a "shoe" simply by pushing forward the strap. In "shoe" mode, it's a tighter more snug fit, so you don't have to worry about it coming off your feet. In "sandal" mode, it's easy to slip on and off (although it has a tendency to cling to the bottom of your feet), for that quick trip outside to take out the trash, or pick up your cell phone that you left in the car.

PROBLEM: "SWEATY FEET"

One problem I have with the CROC is that it doesn't ventilate very well. Sure, it's got holes. But the material is such that it traps heat so you're feet end up sweating in warm weather.

PROBLEM: "HOLES ALLOW DEBRIS IN"

Another problem is that the holes allow all sorts of debris into the sandal while you're walking, such as loose rocks, wood chips at the playground, sand and dirt (when you're not at the beach), and rain water (puddles in the parking lot). This means that you're feet get dirty rather quickly and can be uncomfortable at places where there is a lot of debris - eg, playgrounds.

"SIZE & PRICE"

Sizing is a bit weird. I'd recommend going to a store first to try it on and see what size you are. It's hard to find a good selection at a store, so it's best just to dip in for sizing and then purchase the one you want on Amazon. Turned out to be the best thing for me, as I was able to score Army Green Caymans from Amazon, while searching at numerous stores I've only been able to find blue and black Caymans in sizes way too big. For .99 I think it's a bit pricey actually, but if you're picky about sandals like me, there's nothing you can do about it.

"STYLE"

One other thing you'll have to get used to is how aesthetically disgusting it is. Let's be frank: it's a damn ugly shoe and there's no way getting around it. It's not the prettiest thing to wear, but it's hands-down the most comfortable. Just be careful where you tread. Definitely not an all-terrain/purpose sandal. Good for beach and casual sidewalk/short trip walking.

"DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE BEACH AND CAYMAN STYLES"

None. Except that the sizes for Beach version are "ranges" and are more roomy for your feet. Cayman sizes are exact and are more narrow. Try on before you buy as the versions are not the same.

Review by Deb:

I have had a pair of MuckBoots for years and know that the quality is great. So I purchased this pair as a Christmas gift for my Mom. The only challenge was the sizing. When I initially ordered them they only had unisex sizing...so when I received them they were men's size. When I looked it up again, the sizing had been changed to reflect men's/women's. I reordered and they were a perfect fit. My Mom loves them!

Review by The Green Witch:

These are the best garden shoes ever. They are so easy to slip on and off, they stay on even my narrow heeled foot, which is usually a problem for me, and are as waterproof as they are claimed to be. They seem very sturdy, and will really last. I would recommend these to anyone who wants a comfortable, waterproof very well made shoe.

Review by retiresoon:

This is my second pair of the Vasque Mantra. The first pair lasted a long time (not sure just how long) with quite a bit of use. I actually still use them, but they have become pretty ugly. The tops and are holding together well and the tread is wearing good. I mostly use them for light hiking on dirt trails, yard work, and bicycling. I mountain bicycle quite a bit and like the stiffer sole and how they fit into my toe clips. I've seen these advertised as a cross-trainer, and I can tell you that they in no way compares with a good pair of trail running shoes. (If you like Vasque products as I do, take a look at the Vasque Blur for trail running.) Nor would I want them for rugged hiking where you want more tread and ankle support. I have a wide foot and sometimes get a wide size if it's availible. The Medium width on the Mantra fits fine, but is just a little tight until broken in.

I rated this a 4 star because it's not quite a versitile cross training shoe. But it's a darned good shoe that will last, fit well, and do great for light hiking, walking, and bicycling.

I just got back from Kauai where I hiked for days with these Vasque hikers. They worked wonderfully. I would recommend theses to anyone...
