Children's sandals for comfort?

I hate sandals in general, they always seem to cut my feet up. I remember having soft, comfortable sandals as a child. I still have quite small feet. Can I buy children's sandals, or will they not stand up to the weight of an adult? Are they narrower than adult shoes?

Depends on the style. I have some chunky ones from M&S and they are fine.

You'd love Saltwater sandals

Sahara from Pediped. All my kids have worn these and can endorse their comfortable-ness

Oh for you not FOR kids, sorry, maybe you have small feet though 🤷🏼‍♀️

Thanks all! I ended up getting some (adult's!) sandals from Seasalt as I read a few people saying that they're comfortable, and am hoping it won't be hot enough to need them much!

I had a look at Salt-Water sandals and they look nice aesthetically but I think they'd be too flat for city wear. The comfortable sandals I remember from childhood were closer to the chunky walking sandal style.

I just don't really feel like I "get" sandals like other clothes or shoes - it's hard for me to tell if I like them or not. Sometimes I think I like them, then I suddenly realise they're hideous when I'm already wearing them. Oh well, at least there's not usually too much call for them in the UK!

I’m a slim- footed size 4. I have 3 pairs of very comfortable Zara Kids sandals.
