Shoppers ditch trainers for 'like walking on air' £36 Crocs sandals

Daily Record4 days ago
The sandals are currently on sale at Amazon ahead of the retailer's annual Prime Day sale
Shoppers are casting aside their usual footwear in favour of what's been dubbed the "most comfortable" Crocs sandals. Available on Amazon with a reduced price tag ahead of Prime Day 2025, they're down from £54.99.
The Crocs Women's Brooklyn Low Wedge Clog comes in an array of colours, and prices start at just £36.79 – however, they can vary depending on size choice. With options like sandstone, latte mushroom, khaki bone, and metallic champagne to choose from, the costs also changes for different hues.
The sandals are described as the "go-to comfort shoe that you're sure to fall deeper in love with day after day." The Amazon website encourages shoppers to avoid leaving Crocs in the heat or sun as it can cause the shoes to "shrink or warp."
Alternatively, several other retailers offer a variety of sandal styles. New Look carries the Wide Fit Gold Faux Leather Crossover Strap Platform Sandals for £35.99, while Next offers the Friends Like These Black Wide Fit Minimal Block Low Heel Sandals for £24. Meanwhile, River Island stocks the Beige Buckle Platform Wedge Sandals for £40.
The Crocs sandals have an overall rating of 4.5 stars online, having racked up more than 14,000 reviews from shoppers. Among them, one person said: "Like walking on air. These are the most comfortable sandals I have.
"I even worked a 12 hour exhibition in them and I was the only one not complaining about my feet at the end of the day. I'm a size 7 but had an 8 had to send the 7 back as they looked small on me."
Another delighted customer wrote: "Don't normally write a review but just have to say these sandals are so comfortable! Feels like you're floating on air!
"So trendy as well. Fit perfectly, quality is second to none and durability is great, will last forever if you look after them! Great value for money, so light and great arch support, will definitely be my go to sandals."
Despite the praises, a few customers expressed their dissatisfaction. One person stated: "I use it only for a day my foot was bleeding the sandals caused me blisters and they were uncomfortable."
And another voiced their disappointment: "Bought my usual UK size 7 and they felt comfortable when trying them on and walking around the house, but after taking them a walk outside they eventually started rubbing horribly at the upper strap and around my pinky toes, and gave me painful blisters. I was limping home."
However, other shoppers continued to praise the Crocs sandals. Another shopper added: "Really comfy and lightweight. These Crocs wedges are way comfier than I expected! Super lightweight, and the cushioned sole makes them easy to wear all day. The design is simple but stylish enough to dress up or down."
Yet another customer said: "I ended up wearing these everyday of my 2 week trip to Italy as they were more comfortable than the trainers I had planned to wear. I was reluctant to get them as I really dislike traditional Crocs, but they're honestly my new favourite shoe."
They continued: "Great travel shoe as they are waterproof so I was able to wear them to the beach, pool and even in the rain. The croc material is quite strong so even after excessive use, I haven't noticed the sole wearing down at all which is pretty impressive. I'd highly recommend!"

'Intense' luxury perfume that you 'feel very sexy wearing' now 56% less on Amazon

Shoppers say "you will fall in love at the first spray." There's nothing quite like picking up a new bottle of perfume. With so many scents to choose from these days, it can feel like there is far too much choice. While a few out there might be waiting for Prime Day to pick up some sweet deals, there is still a variety of discounts across luxury branded bottles that are worth taking advantage of ahead of next week. One of them is this incredible 56 per cent discount on the Jimmy Choo Fever Eau de Parfum. Hailed for its "divine" aroma that "lasts all day", it's great value for those who prioritise longevity with their perfume choices. The discount applies to two sizes of the perfume, as shoppers can bag a 40ml for £22.50, down from £51. Those opting for a larger bottle can bag a 100ml for just £29.75, down from £68. Launched as an oriental vanilla fragrance in 2018, Fever has already managed to garner quite the reputation for its "contrasting" and "playful" scent that makes it perfect for the woman looking for a fun evening. Jimmy Choo Fever Eau de Parfum, 50ml £51 £22.50 Amazon Buy here Product Description The "seductive" fragrance opens on rich, vivid and juicy notes of sweet plum that has been blended with the freshness of rosy accents of lychee and subtle bitter tones of grapefruit. At the heart is powdered roundness of heliotrope and exotic vanilla orchid that has been contrasted with ultra-feminine jasmine. For a warm base, there is creamy sandalwood, benzoin and roasted almond facets of vanilla tonka bean. Mirroring its main scent, the bottle has been adorned in an intense plum-coloured lacquer, with the light said to dance off its multi-faceted design. Another luxury perfume that offers similar notes of plum and lychee is Dolce & Gabbana's The One Eau de Parfum, with a 50ml bottle on offer at Boots for £60.00, down from £91, saving over £30 off the RRP. Perfume fans who do like the oriental scent, but would prefer different main notes, then we'd recommend Ariana Grande's Cloud Eau de Parfum that offers similar creamy notes, with a 100ml retailing at £55 at The Perfume Shop. As for the Jimmy Choo Fever EDP, there's no denying why Amazon's discount might be worth taking advantage of, as it has earned a 4.7 rating from shoppers who say it is "a touch of luxury" and that "every lady should own at least one bottle." One five-star review read: "What is there to say? I absolutely love this perfume, it smells divine and always lasts all day. Had to treat myself as its Christmas." A second perfume fan wrote: "This is creamy smooth and smells amazing. It lasts all day and makes you feel very sexy when wearing it. "The design of the bottle is good and the packaging is warm and eye-catching. Definitely one of Jimmy Choo's top smells to try and buy which I guarantee you will fall in love with on the first spray." Beauty deal of the week Looking to get that salon blowdry from home?

Offering a stylish, sleek black design, it uses a power 2200W motor that delivers fast, efficient styling, with three heat and two speed settings having shoppers saying that it provides "super versatile" styling options. Another key feature beauty buffs will love is the ionic conditioning that provides multiple benefits such as a faster drying time, all while leaving hair smoother, shinier and less damaged. It also comes complete with a concentrator attachment that can help achieve that smooth, sleek effect, while the diffuser will be suitable for anyone looking to enhance their curls. With praise for its "fast drying" ability that also leaves hair "frizz free", it's understandable why it averages a 4.6 rating, as one shopper said: "Absolutely love this Remington hair dryer! The 2200W power ensures fast drying, and the ionic conditioning leaves my hair smooth and frizz-free. "The multiple heat and speed settings make it super versatile, and the cool shot locks in my style. The included diffuser and concentrator are perfect for different styling needs. Highly recommend for professional-quality results at home!" Shop Amazon's limited 65 per cent off deal on the Remington Ionic Dry Hair Dryer now.

This is a very opulent smelling perfume ideal for those evenings out wear with pride knowing that smell will linger wherever you go." Someone else praising the fragrance added: "Excellent Quality, price. A touch of Luxury. Every Lady should own at least one bottle, go on spoil yourself you won't regret it x."

How to wear red this summer including £17 M&S alternative to designer T-shirt

Make a statement by wearing accessories in this summer's hottest shade on the high street, from brands such as Marks & Spencer, New Look and Oliver Bonas Red is one of fashion's hottest hues for summer 2025, but if you're not used to wearing such a bold colour, it can be a little daunting. If you're unsure, our top tip is to start by just adding a small flash of the colour into your outfit, rather than go full-on head-to-toe whether that be with a T-shirt, a pair of earrings or a lipstick (red pairs brilliantly with white, cream and tan other items of clothing). To help to give you some summer inspo, we've rounded up some of our favourite red items and accessories for the season... Best red fashion accessories for 2025 M&S Pure Cotton Textured Regular Fit T-Shirt £17.50 from Marks & Spencer We couldn't help but notice how similar to certain designer brands this simple M&S T-shirt looks – something that M&S shoppers were quick to point out too, with one person commenting, "Showed this to a few friends when it first dropped and we all agreed it's very similar so a high priced brand called Sporty & Rich but a fraction of the cost," going on to add that "overall it's a great value T-shirt that looks well above its price point". Pair with white jeans of shorts for the perfect weekend look. New Look Red Jersey Gingham Checked Shirred Tiered Peplum Top £19.99 from New Look For something a touch smarter, this cute ruched gingham top is the perfect solution to a 'jeans and a nice top' outfit dilemma. New Look shoppers are calling it a "lovely top that looks great on and fits perfect" and praising its "great quality" and "perfect fit". Nobody's Child Kandy Shorts £45 from Anthropologie Boxer shorts are a big fashion trend this summer, and these 100% cotton shorts are a great way to wear the style, looking equally as good in the street as on the beach. Pair with a simple oversized tee or, when the temperature starts dropping, a statement sweatshirt. Next Red Sequin Mini Skirt £45 from Next After a way to wear red when going out in the evening instead? We love this sequinned mini skirt from Next, with the sequins arranged in intricate flower patterns. It'll look equally as good glammed up to the max with heels and a strappy top as dressed down with a T-shirt and smart trainers. Abbott Lyon Entwine Custom Heart Necklace £89 from Abbott Lyon Want to wear just a drop of red instead? Give a nod to the trend with your jewellery instead, like this timeless heart-shaped pendant. Available in gold or silver and it can be personalised with the birthstone of your choice (red is for January), and initials can be engraved on the back too if you so wish. Oliver Bones Seb Red Lobster Charm Drop Earrings £14 from Oliver Bonas For something a little more fun and funky, add these lobster-shaped earrings to your outfit. Featuring a crystal stud plus red gems on the body, they're small enough to not overtake your outfit, yet interesting enough to make people look twice. Bobbi Brown Extra Lip Tint in Bare Tangerine Currently £19.20 from Sephora (usual price £32) If you don't want to add red to your wardrobe, how about trying it in your make-up bag instead? Perfect for anyone scared of bold red lipstick, this tinted balm instead gives a sheer, plumping wash of red-orange colour. Jo Malone London Red Hibiscus Cologne Intense £116 from Lookfantastic Finish off with a spritz of this gorgeous scent from Jo Malone, which is a favourite with our beauty editor Laura. "Inspired by 'a rare and vivid flower in a tropical forest', the key notes in this scent are mandarin, red hibiscus and vanilla. For me, it's far less floral than its name suggest, with the vanilla coming through far stronger to create a warm, summery, almost sun cream-like scent, with very subtle hints of florals and citrus," she says. "I'd place it firmly into the 'solar scent' category that's popular at the moment – and I haven't stopped reaching for it this summer."

ALEXANDRA SHULMAN'S NOTEBOOK: I'm battling a terrible addiction

My name is Alexandra and I'm a shopping addict. I became aware of this condition only the other morning when I woke up and realised that with no DHL, Evri or Amazon delivery scheduled for that day I felt bereft. Something was missing. I've always liked going shopping, but this craving is of a different order. At some point – and we can probably pin it, like so many things, on Covid – my delight in wandering around shops to see if anything struck my fancy has grown into a full-on compulsion to have a continual stream of new buys arriving at my front door. Key to the addiction is that it has very little to do with what you are actually buying. There's scarcely any difference in the satisfaction derived from scooping up a beautiful object that will live in your house for years, to that of something completely disposable like the flip-flops I am expecting any moment now. Online shopping addicts get their hit at the point they click 'buy'. This is the moment when all seems right with the world, but like all addictions the satisfaction is short-lived. The Alcoholics Anonymous mantra of 'one is too many and a thousand is never enough' applies as much to shopping on the web as it does to booze. As soon as the packaging is torn open, the temptation to start looking for something else to buy rears its head. The joy of a purchase disappears completely if the item needs to be sent back. You are then faced with the bother of repackaging it and the gloomy trek to the post office. The other day I had the double whammy of having to return two compulsive purchases. One was a pair of navy trousers I was convinced would be my go-to for the rest of the summer, only to discover I was too short and their decorative fringe was going to sweep the floor. The other was a tool intended to turn my hair into silken locks, which simply didn't work. The only compensation of having to return both was the thought of a substantial refund. But the pain of returning things is not enough to stop me seeking the next buzz. So is it any wonder online shopping fuels excessive spending for many people? I know one man who has a plant problem – splashing out hundreds on bulbs from his bed in the middle of the night. Another friend has an M&S habit, which fortunately for her, if not for them, has been curtailed temporarily by the recent cyber attack. Even as I write this, I have been alerted to a substantial price drop on a Mint Velvet white shirt I have recently been dithering over, in an attempt to hold back. Reader, I gave in and bought it. Kids foot the bill? Don't bank on it! According to wealth manager Moneyfarm, while the Bank of Mum and Dad continues to bail out children, growing numbers of parents would like their offspring to buy them a drink by the time they are 26 and a meal by the age of 27. But change may be a long time coming. Taking my 30-year-old son out for dinner the other day in one of those incredibly expensive but supremely relaxed looking joints in fashionable North London, I noticed two things. One was that despite the hefty prices, the place was packed on a Sunday night. The other was that there were several tables like ours, that were clearly parents dining with their grown-up kids. And in each case – us included – it was the oldies who ended up paying the bill. Wobbly Lime bikers should take road test If I don't end up killing a Lime bike rider, it's going to be a miracle. I know that us car drivers are meant to share the roads with others, but it's become nearly impossible to avoid a collision with some crazy idiot on two wheels. It was bad enough having to navigate around the endless Deliveroo motorcyclists and the possessed Lycra-clad demons pounding their way to work. But these battery-powered rental bikes, generally ridden by people who appear not to know where they are going, are proving to be a greater danger. The riders almost never wear helmets, they travel (or rather, wobble) at speed, and those of us in cars are stuck at 20mph trying not to crash into one as they blithely overtake on the inside. Lime bikes are just as dangerous as cars and there ought to be some kind of proficiency test to make sure those who hire them at least know the basics of road safety. Soothing thwacks make SW19 a joy Wimbledon fortnight is such a delight. Not only does it provide stunning displays of athleticism and exceptionally good-looking players in thrilling matches, there's also the celebrity fashion show in the Royal Box to enjoy. However, my main pleasure doesn't involve watching the tennis at all – it's the soundtrack. The thwack of the balls, the measured commentary (in contrast to the stressful yelling that accompanies football) and the clapping of the crowd make for a wonderfully soothing noise to keep on in the background all day. Sarah, a chic poster woman for disability My heroine of the week is Sarah de Lagarde, who was in the High Court for her case against London Underground. Despite losing two limbs when she slipped off a wet platform and was hit by two Tube trains, she turned up for the hearing looking absolutely amazing. Her fitted white lace dress and gleaming white trainers were accessorised by a prosthetic limb and a bionic arm. A brave poster woman for disability, for sure. England expected less of rascal Nelson I bet Sir Ben Key wishes he didn't live in modern times. Recently sacked as head of the Navy for having a relationship with a subordinate, he might consider the difference between himself and Admiral Nelson. Back in the 18th century, the married Nelson had a very public affair with the also married Lady Hamilton. Although eyebrows were raised, he kept his job and his reputation.
