Great for Traveling!
I bought these for a long trip to Mexico, and they made great walking around shoes--I logged a lot of miles in these sandals! They were able to handle bumpy cobblestone streets and were even great in the sand since they are lightweight and washable. The texture on the soles feels great, and they are a little bit cushy when you walk. And they are super cute!

watch out narrow footed ladies!
I ordered my shoes, came quick.I read all reviews about ladies walking miles in these & loving them. I think perfect, just what I NEED. Well not the case when I got them. I expected a nice cushy, comfy wedge for summer wearing. Well perhaps they need a LONG break in period, I just walked around the room & they were UNCOMFORTABLE, stiff straps that cut the toes. Foot bed felt bumpy & hard, if you're sensitive on the foot bed (which I didn't think I was) beware.

I am a 10 & tend to be narrow but usually buy med. width, so I am not too narrow. The length of the shoe seemed to be 1/2 size too small, but the width was really wide! My foot flopped in the toe area & slid thru the toe area. They seemed like a WIDE size, I even looked at the package to see if the wrong size came.

So for $50.save your money if you have a slim foot! And BTW they are not as cute as all claimed either. Looks like plastic, cheapish & not really stylish. But I was willing to forgo all that for a REAL comfortable shoe.
So back they go!!!!

Most Comfortable Heels
These are the most comfortable heels that I've ever worn. I've worn these at a 4 day convention, day in and day out and my feet never hurt! I have the Black and Silver, and they look dressy. They don't look like crocs at all. I swore I'd never wear crocs because I don't like the classic crocs, but I had to eat my words when I saw these heels. They're pretty and comfortable. I highly recommend them if you're going to be on your feet all day. I've gotten tons of compliments on them. People never guess that they're crocs.

Women should order a size smaller...
crocs Athens Thong Sandal

I just received my Crocs Athens purchased here on Amazon. I was so excited to get them after seeing all the positive reviews and knowing the good reputation of Crocs. So I immediately opened the box and tried them on. They are soooo comfy, but unfortunately they run really big. I am a true Womens size 7 and ordered the Mens 5/Womens 7 but they were way too big on me. Mostly in width and the straps of the thongs didn't even fit my foot. I had a slight bit of extra room in the length too, but had they not been too wide and too loose it would not have bothered me.
So I have to return them, and unfortunately I am not able to "exchange" them (I am guessing because they come from somewhere other than and amazon facility maybe??? Who knows). The return process was a BREEZE, I simply filled out a screen here online as to why I needed to return, printed a RMA, a prepaid shipping label and I will hand it to my Mail Carrier for return!
I am now reordering a Womens size 6 (Mens 4) and PRAY they fit perfectly! Living in a hot desert climate, I pretty much wear flip flops almost year long and I have been searching out a great pair that will hold up for awhile and keep my feet comfy (and hopefully keep the "smellies" at bay LOL!)

Once I receive a pair that fits well, I will follow up with a better review...I just wanted all women interested in these to be aware that they do run big in the width and fit if you tend to have a thin, petite or even a "normal" size foot.
P.S. My Mother in Law who wears a womens size 8-1/2 tried this pair on (the womens size 7) and they fit her PERFECTLY.
Can't wait to receive my new pair to see how comfy they claim to be!

UPDATE:
This is an updated review to the one I wrote back on May 16th, 2008.
I received the 2nd pair I ordered (the first pair I ordered was way too large so ordered 1 size smaller). These are still yet way too large for me. I wear a womens size 7, and I returned the Mens5/Womens7 for a Mens4/Womens6 and received them today. I am so disappointed that they are still way too large for my feet. They are almost perfect in the length, but VERY large in the strap area. I can't even walk in them without them sliding all over my feet. They may be perfect for someone with a large or swollen feet, but women with regular, thin or petite feet I highly recommend going 2 sizes smaller now...
I was at the mall last week and found a Crocs kiosk and tried on the Womens 6 and at that point I knew the 2nd pair I ordered here from Amazon would have to be returned :-(
So I tried on a Womens size 5 at the Crocs Kiosk and they are a perfect fit! 2 sizes smaller than I normally wear. So I am giving up on ordering them from Amazon as I have to keep returning them, re-purchasing a pair and then waiting on a refund. I will be buying them at the mall since they are the same price. I normally like to shop online because I don't get out to the mall much and shopping online saves me with the high prices of fuel from making loads of trips around town.
Anyway, I just wanted everyone to be aware of the large size of these and if your feet are a "normal" size, or on the smaller size...take it from my experience, order 2 sizes smaller or try them on somewhere before deciding on which size to order here from Amazon.

Otherwise I LOVE them, they are extremely comfy!

better than berks!!! better than slippers!!!
I own 3 pair of crocs.one is the mule type and 2 are these "athens" thong type. I am 45 yrs. old and I have never,not one time ever found thong sandles I could wear because they hurt my toes,until crocs.I don't work outside the home so when I say I wear them 24/7 I truly mean it.I have one pair that I wear outdoors and the other as house shoes.I weight 296lbs. (I tell you this because shoes and me don't get along" but these are soooo easy on my feet.My feet use to ache and now they don't.(I often forget I have them on at all) I spent alot on "Berks" until I found these and they are 100% better.they can be held under the water to wash off and when dull I just rube a little vasaline on them so they shine again. best $30 I ever spent.Oh, and the best part, they last years,My first pair are now 3 yrs old and are worn looking but the comfort level has not changed.

Very comfortable but...
I really liked these Crocs for the comfort level, however they come up VERY wide. I couldn't have gone a size down so I was really stuck. As I said very comfortable but very wide. Also, the color I ordered was Pearl/lilac and the pearl does not read well on screen, it looks like an opalesent white when in fact it is a light grey. If you want a white shoe do not choose the pearl color!

Arch support is built in, making these all day shoes. Non marking outsole.

Nice surprise!

I love these things. My daughter (who's in the medical field)turned me on to these. She, as do I, has a need for arch support because they're so high. She also knew my arches has been falling due to age (I'm in my late forties)and I need inserts in my work shoes. She's been wearing her pair since last fall (2006) and picked me up some of the Croc "glides?" in March.

I liked them so much I ordered these Caymans for myself. Amazing support for "difficult" feet. I wear them whenever I'm not in my work shoes. I may look somewhat foolish (they're marketed at a much lower age bracket than myself), but I'm comfortable so I don't care.

What a CrOc!?
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 $29.99 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.
