Columbia Footwear Dragonfly Shoes - Wet-Dry (For Women)

Put these on the first day and wore all afternoon with no socks - no problems with rubbing or fit. Have an issue with PF and these supported & cushioned with no pain issues. I bought my reg. size 6 and fit was great. I don't plan on wearing with thick socks so fit should not be an issue by not sizing 1/2 up. Love the orange/khaki combo color.

*Followup* I wear them every chance I get. These are great for walking 4-5 miles too. I will get another pair if 12's are offered again!

Have considered these shoes for a long time. Finally broke down and ordered them. Glad I did. They are very comfortable and will be a great warm weather shoe. Looks good with jeans, capris, or a casual skirt.

I was looking for shoes to take to Costa Rica that I could wear in the rainforest,touring and possibly on the beach. I also wanted a pair of shoes, not sandals to protect my feet. I found these shoes. They are both comfortable with or without socks,wet/dry and cute!

I just returned from walking 198 miles in 14 days. These shoes, combined with Injinji socks, made that possible. I'm no athlete, and I've had issues with chronic foot pain since I was a kid. Everyone was telling me before I left to switch shoes, switch shoes, switch shoes as I walked. The one time I did, I nearly blacked out from pain. One pair of these got me through the entire trip - a crushed limestone trail - without issue. In addition, they aren't hideous, like just about every pair of walking/hiking/running shoes I've seen. It's a nice bonus. They look more like cross-trainers, which means the heel is low. That, in turn, gives stability and doesn't cause you to favor your calves to the point they don't strengthen and to put undue strain on feet and thighs, unlike most shoes designed for walking and running. LOVE these shoes.
