The Men's Clearwater CNX sandals are highly praised for their lightweight design, excellent fit, and great support. Customers appreciate their airy feel and low profile, though opinions on the soles are mixed. The sandals are versatile for water activities and are considered some of the best sandals by many users.

"These are a great water shoe if you are looking for a minimalistic-style upgrade from an open-toed strap sandal. They fit closely to your foot with no slop, without feeling tight or being difficult to put on. I forget I am wearing them in the water and they drain super quickly coming out of the water onto dry land. The only improvement I would make is that I wish they dried faster. I am on my second pair and am writing this review because I would be very sad if they ever discontinued this line!"

"This is the third pair of these sandals in 6-7 years. The pair I just replaced were US size 12, and although the first 6-8 months of wearing them in the tropics caused 3rd toe on left foot to bleed, that toe eventually wore a patch out of the cloth lining and they've been perfect. When I bought the present pair I choose US size 13. Frankly, because the whole shoe is larger, I don't feel as well supported. I do pull on the elastic laces two-, and one-crossing down from the top, and finally cinch up the laces with the cord lock. Even then the 13 shoes don't feel like I'm wearing "gloves on my feet" the way the 12s did. I'm sure I'd be satisfied with 12 1/2."
