Detailed Review
When it comes to choosing the right sandal for your toddler, there are several key factors to consider, especially if they're going to be engaging in outdoor play. The pediped Flex Sahara Water Sandal excels in providing a combination of durability and comfort. Made from high-quality synthetic materials, these sandals can withstand the rigors of adventurous play while being easy to clean and maintain.
The flexibility of the sole is one of the standout features. It allows for natural movement without compromising stability, which is crucial for young children who are still developing their motor skills. You’ll appreciate how easily they can navigate different terrains, from sandy beaches to grassy parks.
On the downside, some parents have noted that while the sandals offer decent support, they might lack the robust arch support found in more specialized footwear. Additionally, the style options are somewhat limited, which might narrow down choices for those who prioritize aesthetics.
Overall, the pediped Flex Sahara Water Sandal is particularly well-suited for families who spend time outdoors during the warmer months. Its blend of functionality, ease of care, and comfort make it an excellent choice for active toddlers and little kids alike.

User Reviews
Our 7-year-old wore these over the summer and said they were very comfortable. I like how flexible the soles are and easy they are to clean. We will probably buy another pair in the next size up if he still likes this style next summer.
I’ve been using this brand for my son for the past 4 years (his entire life). I can’t recommend them enough. They are sturdy, easy to put on and off and can be washed in the machine or by hand. They have great color combinations!
We love these shoes. Third time buying this style without any problems. No significant wear and tear even wearing them everyday. He has worn them at ages 1, 2, & 3 and we've never had any problems. Can wear as water shoes or as summer casual shoes. Just a heads up: because of the range of size- they may seem big at first (they always look a little large at the beginning of the season but he grows into them by the time he's done wearing them in the summer) but the strap on the top allows you to secure them so they don't slide around.
Purchased a second pair of Pediped Sahara Flex after my daughter outgrew the pair she wore all last summer at daycare and on the weekends. I'm a firm believer in investing in high quality shoes, and these are worth the cost. Super flexible while being supportive and durable. Like last year, I purchased a size up (22, though 21 is a perfect fit) in the spring, so that they will last into the fall. Even with plenty of room to grow, these sandals are still stable on her feet because the strap cinches right near her ankle. And they're washable!
My son loves these shoes so much that this is his third summer wearing them! (I had to get a new size every year as he grows.) They are comfortable, super cute, and they dry quickly. Perfect for little adventures!
I bought these for my grandson. He has narrow feet and Keen's run wide. These are holding up great. He will outgrow them before they wear out and the best part, they aren't stinky.
These sandals seem very comfortable for my 4 y/o for city wear. They run big- I got him a 9 which he usually is and they are too long but he has still worn them all summer- hopefully they last for two. Theo only problem is that they are very slippery on wet rock. I was hoping for Keen replacements for our nature adventures but he was slipping around everywhere. Best for city/yard/parks.
This is our second pair of these. We did order a size down like recommended and they fit very well. I recommend sizing down too. My son's foot is covered and he can run around in the summer with his feet being protected in sandals.
