Saltwater Sizing
All sizes listed on this page refer to Salt Water and Sun-San sizing, which is unique to the Saltwater brand.
Please refer to the size guide chart below before placing your order.
Please note this chart is a guide only and we can't guarantee the fit or size is the same as your feet.
Please refer to the measurements below if unsure of your size, noting that these measurements are averages of our range.
Salt Water Adult sandals: are manufactured in traditional US men’s sizing. For US Women's sizes, please go up by two sizes. For guidance, please refer to the size guide above.
Salt Water Infant, Child and Youth styles: The US size is one size up from the Salt Water size given on the bottom of the sandal.
All Sun-San styles: These come in standard US sizing (this is the size given on the bottom of the sandal). The Sun-San Shark is slightly smaller than other Sun-San styles so we recommend you size up in these.
Do the soles of your new Salt Water style sandals seem shorter? The soles of a well-worn pair of Salt Water Sandals can stretch and lengthen at the toes over time, making your new pair seem a little shorter. You will find the straps are in the same location, matching a left sandal with a left sandal or right sandal with a right sandal.
Fit
Please note that Salt Water and Sun-San sandals should fit firmly across the foot on first wear and will gradually adapt to your foot shape. If you experience rubbing/tightness, simply pop your sandals on stand in a bucket of cool water for a few minutes and then allow your sandals to dry while you’re wearing them so that they mould nicely to the shape of your foot.
How to keep your Salt Water sandals looking good…
As the name implies, it’s fine to wear Salt Water and Sun-San sandals in the water (including at the beach, jumping in puddles etc.) and they can be hand washed in cold water using a mild detergent, if dirty. However, be sure to dry away from direct sunlight/heat.
