Detailed Review
When it comes to sandals that combine style with performance, the Spenco Women's Breeze Sandal Slide excels in many areas. One of the standout features is its breathable composite mesh upper. This not only allows air to circulate around your feet, reducing sweat and discomfort, but also gives the sandal a sleek look. Additionally, the orthotic-grade arch support is a game-changer for those who struggle with foot pain or fatigue. The added metatarsal dome provides further support by reducing pressure on the balls of your feet.
Another impressive feature is the deep heel cupping, which keeps your heel securely in place and stabilizes your gait. This is especially beneficial for those who spend long hours on their feet. The +5mm heel lift contributes to better posture and overall foot health.
Despite its strengths, it's important to note that the Spenco Breeze Sandal might not suit everyone's preferences. Some users have reported needing a brief break-in period to achieve optimal comfort, which could be a drawback if you’re looking for immediate wearability. Additionally, while the black/silver color scheme is appealing, the limited color options may deter some buyers.
In conclusion, the Spenco Women's Breeze Sandal Slide offers outstanding comfort and support, making it an excellent choice for anyone seeking a reliable summer sandal.

Great sandals for these old feet of mine. I’m wearing a knee brace now for an issue I had wearing a good brand sandal but flat and little if any arch support all day, so I am replenishing my sandals with only those like spenco, vionics$$, earth brand, orthotic s with good support. These have fantastic arch support, toe post non abrasive right out of package…I have had issues with a few of this brands toe post being back just a little too far and rubbing raw but am happy to say these do not! It only has to be off about an eighth of an inch, I measured between two pair of the same style, one great the other painful and that’s how off they were just enough to make a massive difference and to be returned. They do not slide off when you walk, snug fit but comfortable. Very well made, pretty purple and lavender. A little wider sole top half of foot but that’s ok too. and can wear in water or rain. Easy to clean. Very happy with these. The footbed is not quite as soft as some like the Pure style which are like walking on sand but still very comfortable.
I had to order 2 sizes and return one because the sizing chart was not very helpful. The smaller one fit me much better than the one I expected to fit based on the chart.The color is 'coral' and not watermelon as the drop down says. It was much brighter than what I saw on the screen. I didnt have an issue with that personally but wanted to mention it in case it helps someone else.The flip flops are very comfortable and extremely well designed. I needed these because of the arch support they offer. I use them at home and I cook a lot one some days. With these, my back and heels dont hurt as much as they did before after this amount of standing and cooking. So they have served their purposed well. Its been about 6 months I have used them and they are very durable still.The only drawback is that they shouldnt be wet at all! I spilled something on them and tried to wash them and it took them 3 whole days to dry completely!Also if you are someone who sweats a lot, these are not a great option because they even cause your feet to sweat on exceptionally warm days.I can work around both these drawbacks so I gave them a 5 star rating anyway. But something to remember based on your location and intended use.
I had never heard of this brand and a friend recommended the Spenco and Vionic. I ordered both. I returned the Vionic. I have a high arch and it actually had too much arch support for me. The Spenco is wonderful. It fits my foot without flip-flopping (as the Vionic did). It has a metatarsal support which is perfect for me. I have not taken them off. I even wore to church on Sunday. The purple is a pretty color but is probably not appropriate for church so I have ordered a black Pair and a tan pain in a different style. I hope they fit as well as these. I had been to the foot doctor last week & he put me in a boot for a swollen tendon caused by running around the house barefoot during this Covid pandemic. These shoes were perfect for me to wear when I'm not in the boot. They are true to size. I wear a size 8 and the 8 fit perfectly. They are not real cushy but offer a lot of support. I highly recommend.
Spenco sandals are my absolute favorite brand. They stay on my feet and don’t flap when I walk. I like the shaped foot bed. Also offered in a wide version that is very comfortable with a little extra toe space. Light weight and washable.
Spenco went to Waco Shoes and now will be known as Revitalign, but these are the Spenco sandals that I know and live. I’ve been wearing this brand for many years due to plantar fasciitis, and this sandal is SO comfortable and doesn’t hurt my feet. The Spenco Yumi sandals are made smaller ( shorter) so I keep away from that style, but this thong sandal is the Spenco fit I’ve always worn. True to size and my feet love them!
These feel great!
I only wear flip flops with arch support. I experienced Plantar fasciitis once and want to prevent arecurrence. I have worn many different brands. Spenco gets an "A"!
I have been looking for a long time for an easy-on, supportive shoe to wear daily around my house. My son recommended that I try these, as he loves his own Spenco thongs. This shoe keeps me from pronating out of them, so I am able to keep my balance. They are so comfortable that I don’t even notice that I have them on. My feet and legs aren’t tired or sore after wearing them all day.
