Can you wear the Original Universal in water?

Yes. The polyester webbing and rubber outsole are made for water activities and dry fast. The flat footbed gives little traction on slick rocks, so it suits beaches and river crossings more than technical canyoning.

How does the sizing run?

The sandal is listed in standard women's sizes, with women's 7 shown here. The adjustable straps take up some slack, but owners with wide feet often size up.

Does it have arch support?

Only a little. The footbed is flat and fairly firm, which many people find fine for casual wear but not enough for long walks or standing all day.

What is the difference from the Original Universal Premier?

The Premier version adds a thicker, contoured footbed and softer straps. The standard Original Universal is lighter and flatter, and usually costs less.
