Unisex Adilette Aqua Slides

I was quite worried after reading all the reviews here, about the sizing being completely wrong and possibly even being fake etc (although there are even some similar reviews about the sizing etc on the Adidas site about ones purchased directly from there). So I'm going to try to write quite an in-depth review of what I received. I ordered both the Aqua version in size 9 and the Comfort version in size 8 (as even the Adidas site says to go a size bigger for the Aqua one but not the Comfort), from Amazon as the seller. So this review covers both (but I'll include only the relevant photos). I'm pretty sure mine are genuine anyway. They both came in a plastic bag rather than a box, but with an Adidas "shelf hanger" thing in the bag too, so I think they're just packaged for hanging up on a rail in a shop. The labels on the bag, on the tags attached to the shoes and on the shoes themselves do all say the same size number for US and UK, but I have a feeling that's Adidas themselves getting that wrong, and that might also explain some of the sizing issues (i.e. if these are actually US sizes, the shoes would be one size smaller than they should be here). I can't see any serial numbers on the shoes themselves (which apparently Adidas print on all their shoes, but I think that might only be for their proper shoes/trainers rather than these). But the Aqua version does have a little QR code label on the sole of each shoe, with some sort of serial number which is different between the two sides (a good sign apparently). The Comfort version didn't have these stickers, but that's the only difference, all the other packaging and printing of labels etc is exactly the same style. Well, except that the Comfort version also has an extra little disclaimer tag saying "Not for shower use" (I guess due to the spongy footbed which would absorb water). On to the actual shoes themselves, they do seem to be about the same size as eachother (so one size bigger for the Aqua one was correct), and also seem a little bit smaller (in length) compared to my usual size 8 Clarks shoes. But, to my surprise, both pairs actually seem to fit my feet perfectly (without socks)! I was particularly worried as I have wide feet (so my usual shoes are size 8 H - extra wide - and in the past I've had to wear size 9 or 10 trainers when they were standard width), but somehow it's not an issue with these. I'm not actually sure yet which version I prefer (and I don't have any prior experience with this style of shoes to compare with) - the Comfort version is of course softer underfoot, but the Aqua version is actually softer than it looks like it would be, so I feel like there's not actually that much difference once wearing them. I also see why people have complained about the edges of the strap being sharp on the Comfort version (the padding ends shortly before the edge, which isn't ideal), but it doesn't seem to be an issue for me personally. My feet don't really seem to press into the upper edge enough to feel it at all (even while walking), and I can only feel the lower edge if I lift my toes into it on purpose. The footbed of both is sort of contoured around the toe area, and I feel like my feet/toes possibly fit the Aqua version better around there. The sole of the Comfort version is more flexible though, which means it stays close to my heel when bending at the toes while walking, whereas the Aqua ones don't bend as much so they pull away from the heel more - but I don't think enough for it to be an issue really.

Nice slides, but they run small. I got these for someone as a gift and sized up 2 sizes from what he normally wears and they fit perfectly. They're comfortable and the quality seems fine so far.

These slidders are lightweight, waterproof, and very comfortable to wear. I’ve used them in wet conditions and they felt secure, which shows the grip. The build feels durable and high-quality without being heavy, so they’re easy to wear for long periods. They also look good and feel like excellent value for money. The only thing to note is that the sizing runs a bit small, so I recommend ordering one size up for the best fit. Overall, a reliable, well-made product that delivers on comfort, durability, and performance.

I love these for around the house. I use them instead of slippers as you can just wipe them down. Very happy with my purchase They are a little on the small side but ok for around the house, very good quality. Would recommend you buy a size up

Very narrow for my foot, wife finds them comfortable though. If you have slightly wider than normal feet, don’t order (I got a size up as well).

These adidas Adilette Aqua slides in white and gold are great. They look really clean and stylish and the gold detail adds a nice touch without being too bling. They go with pretty much anything, from swimwear to casual summer outfits. And I lived in mine in the summer both at home and on holiday to the beach and by the pool. They are very comfortable to wear. They are soft and supportive and they are lightweight. They slip on easily and stay on well without rubbing. They are very practical. The material is quick drying and easy to wipe clean which is perfect if you are using them at the pool or beach. They feel durable and well made, as you would expect from adidas. These sliders are really comfortable and great value. I would definitely buy these again and recommend them for everyday summer wear.

Came up a little small so go one size up
