Favorite sandals and super comfortable!
I have had my pair of black Cobian Nias since September 2010 and this week ordered a replacement which will be just perfect! My current pair just had the strap pull out of the sole, but they have been well worn for the past 18+ months. They are so soft and comfortable but I did find I needed to stretch them some. I usually wear an 8.5 to 9 in shoes and ordered these in a 9 (B). At first the straps were a little tight, but after a couple of wears, they stretched some and were perfect. (Sort of like Rainbows with a break in period but for me it was short, and wearing them in water, like for a shower one day, helps a lot.) I have worn these dressed up for a warm-weather wedding and also to work or just out and about. Never had a problem with blisters even with walking long distances. My daughter loves the zoo and walking around there has never been an issue- my feet are always comfortable and the arch support is wonderful!

Super comfortable flip flops
I have had multiple pairs of these flip flops & love them so much. I normally buy them when I find them in the store but couldn't find any this past summer. I ordered these online hoping they would be exactly like I had bought previously. I was slightly disappointed (hence the 4 stars not 5) due to they are much wider & if you look very close to each pair one is a little bit of a darker black then the other. I kept them because the width wasn't that bad or the color. I'm not 100% sure if I would order them again online due to this so unless I can't find a pair in the stores near me next summer than I will be ordering from here again.

But I wear them like every day
I have been wearing these flip flops for 8 + years and they are the only ones I will wear. I buy two pairs at a time and each pair last about a year or so. But I wear them like every day! If they ever discontinue them I'll be devastated! The little arch support works wonders and I can wear these and walk in them all day and my feet don't hurt. I find the sizing to be true. I wear a 9 and I buy a 9 and they fit perfectly.

Most comfortable flip flops
These are the only flip flops I've ever found to be comfortable. I prefer their look to the wider strap type. I have bought a pair of these Cobians every summer for several years. My teen aged daughters wear them too. We need new ones yearly but I feel like we get a lot of wear out of them, no complaints. I always get black but just got the "cheetah" print and they're really cute! I've been getting them from a surf store but have to admit it was super convenient to get them thru Amazon this year.

I Live in These!
I have worn these for 10+ years and they are wonderful. The fit is superb and the arch support is right on. I usually wear a 6-1/2 but need a 7 and not a 6 in these. Be sure to order up not down if you are a half size. I can wear these for hours on end while shopping and not have tired aching feet from the get-go. This is a flip flop not just meant for the beach. The black is always so appropriate and good looking. I order two pairs at a time and let one pair morph into my beach pair.

Low Quality - Used to be better.
I love these flip flops I really do but I am getting sick and tired of replacing them every year! I pay for better quality and I expect better quality, the strap comes out after 3 months of use. These literally only last the summer. They should really make them more durable. I love them because I cannot wear the plastic strap ones and these ones are a soft material but I really think I am done purchasing these. They used to last 2 seasons but the last 3 years I've had to replace them every 3 months.

Order one size larger
I am an exact size 7 and these run small, so a size 8 fits perfectly. One benefit that is not advertised is these are non-slip. When you step in the water, the soles of your feet do not slip and slide on the sandal, which is great if you are in/out of the water often. I get out on the boat ramp in several feet of water to steady our boat, and won't loose my footing. The price is significantly less than the high-end sporting good store in San Diego, so worthwhile to order from Amazon.

quality control flopped
i love the design of these sandals.pros:blackthin, sturdy but comfortable strapspadded all over with a nice material that's nonslip and nonabrasivegrids on the soles to prevent slips which will prolong the wearunforunately, i got ones that flopped. the left flip flop had three times as much arch cushion stuffing than the right. despite the flop, i will keep this item because i'm hoping i can override the flaw by wearing it down.
