Hello, dear shopaholics!
Today I will share with you a review Karrimor sandals. These sandals are suitable for anyone who loves a sporty style of clothing, long walks and travel. You can walk in them for a very long time with absolute comfort for your legs. I was looking specifically for sports sandals, with comfortable soles, not flat, like sandals or flip-flops, but more like orthopedic ones. This is what my purchase looks like:
Unfortunately, the link has already expired, but the same model can now be purchased on the website for 27$ . The sandals are adjustable with Velcro throughout, so you can individually adjust them to fit your foot. These sandals are size 4, I have foot length 23.5 cm. They fit perfectly, their insole size is 24 cm, so they don’t fit. Here is the size chart from the manufacturer Karrimor, photographed from the packaging:
The sandals are made of high quality, everything is provided for the comfort of your feet - non-slip rubber soles, well absorbs while walking. I’ve already gone for walks in them about 10 times, and my feet really get tired in these shoes a lot less. Now these are my favorite shoes, I wear them with jeans and a T-shirt.
The sole material is not hard, slightly springy, and takes the shape of the foot. The top layer is pleasant to the skin of the feet, I went out for a walk in these sandals on a cool evening and my feet did not freeze. This is how they look on me:
I really like the soft fabric inserts in these sandals to prevent chafing and provide extra comfort:
I posted more detailed photos in the attachments, you can see everything in detail))) The price of my purchase was 170 UAH + 22 UAH. delivery to my city. This time I bought on the forum in the section of unsuitable items. We bought at the old rate, and also at a promotion, that’s why the price is so low. When I saw them, I didn’t even doubt the purchase, I ordered them the same day. So I recommend that all shopaholics also go to the “flights” sections on the forums, there is also a lot of interesting stuff there, especially since they can tell you the measurements of things and it will be 100% true to size. If you are still afraid to order shoes from the Internet, buying through the forum will be an even better option, you have a better chance of getting it in size.
I am very pleased with this purchase, I recommend Karrimor sandals to everyone!
Happy online shopping!

I’m a mother on maternity leave, naturally, a day doesn’t go by without a walk, we just walk a lot, I decided to pick up a pair of sneakers that are not the most expensive, but preferably of high quality, so that they can withstand more tests, and that they look human, and most importantly, they are comfortable.
My attention was caught on one stock English store site by the pretty ones, both in appearance and in price (33 Karrimor Duma running shoes (special anatomical sole).
The question was about the size, but I found the size chart of this particular company on the Internet, measured my leg exactly to the millimeter, and ordered it according to the description. 5 UK size on 38 European ( 7 USA)(on my narrow leg ( 25 cm), it seems to me that if the leg is wide, they may not fit, perhaps you need size 5.5) - they fit me perfectly.
Size chart Karrimor
The color on the Internet is not as rich as in reality, just beautiful.
They are sewn normally, the quality of the materials is not the highest, but the price-quality ratio is adequate - good.
Very light, simply airy.
So... I've worn them a little since I wrote the review and I want to add to it. I wear them every day. The quality is ok, but the model itself. My gait is normal, I step on my entire foot, neither inward nor vice versa. And in these sneakers it feels like your feet go inside. or something like a duck walk. This makes your legs very tired.
I’m not an expert on sports shoes, but for this model, apparently it’s exactly like that, probably someone with a different *step* they might fit. A month later, the bone of the big toe began to bulge.
Again, I repeat, perhaps such a model, but I don’t understand who they were made for, what kind of foot should be under them. Moreover, these are running shoes, I have no idea how to do this. (I'm lowering my rating)
I wouldn't buy them now...
Professional climbers and extreme sports seekers choose specialized shoes and hiking equipment from the British brand Karrimor. Currently, Karrimor shoes (quality reviews are given below) are considered one of the most popular; the manufacturer is on the list of the best UK companies producing sporting goods and sports and travel equipment for professionals.
Brand history
The history of the founding of the brand dates back to 1946. The creators of Karrimor are the spouses Charles and Marie Parsons, and Marie's sister Grace Davis. Over 70 years, Karrimor's range has expanded significantly - here lovers of an active lifestyle can find everything they need - from socks to tents.
Today, Karrimor tourist equipment and shoes, reviews of which are evidence of the high quality of its products, can be called the emblem of travelers. Special equipment and specialized shoes are developed taking into account the wishes of both professional athletes - climbers and famous travelers, and non-professionals - outdoor enthusiasts.
The creators of the brand try to provide target consumers with only high-quality and absolutely reliable ammunition with great durability potential. Regardless of whether it is a backpack or a specialized piece of equipment, any Karrimor product is wear-resistant and can withstand almost any load.
A membrane that breathes...
One of Karrimor's inventions is the eVENT membrane made of breathable and waterproof material. The advantage of the eVENT membrane is that instead of the traditional PU coating, a special material ePTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) is used, the chemical formula of which changes its properties when in contact with fat-containing compounds. By repelling contaminants, the membrane always remains clean - its pores are always open.
Manufacturers consider the ultra-modern technology for manufacturing the upper part of the boots to be an advantage of their models. Karrimor shoes (customer reviews are the main confirmation of this) breathe, do not allow water to pass through and protect the tourist from the wind.
Polytetrafluoroethylene, consisting of millions of microscopic pores, prevents water from penetrating inside the shoe and does not prevent moisture evaporation. The main advantage of the eVENT membrane is its ability to freely remove moisture without condensation.
...and does not wear out
The waterproof, breathable Weathertite membrane, another Karrimor development, first saw the light of day in 1948. Having a multi-layer structure (laminate), Weathertite is a model of wear resistance, and the manufacturing technology of this model is constantly being improved. The developers make sure that the waterproof membrane always corresponds to the latest technological advances.
"Smart" sole
The Vibram outsole has been designed and engineered specifically for trekking boots. Vibram, having excellent adhesion to the soil of any structure, never gets dirty thanks to its self-cleaning tread. The sole is conventionally divided into several zones that provide braking, repulsion and stability. The developers attach special importance to the stability of shoes of this kind, which is why they provided the Vibram sole with an intermediate shock-absorbing layer of polyurethane.
Karrimor: Reviews from online store customers
Waterproof boots made of genuine leather will certainly be appreciated by representatives of the stronger sex, whose lifestyle involves a long stay on the street. Thanks to the thermal insulation properties of the Thinsulate layer, which ensures uniform heat distribution throughout the foot, the shoes protect their owner even when the air temperature is significantly lower (down to -35). In addition, the boots are made using modern waterproof technology, which ensures that your feet remain dry even during severe thaws.
The unique hollow microfibers that make up Thinsulate material actively absorb air and reflect heat emanating from the human body to return thermal energy back. 10 times smaller in size than traditional synthetic materials, thinsulate microfibers are 2 times more effective and comfortable than all known analogues.
The finishing touch of seasonal shoes is the sole with a 3D pattern. You can even walk on ice in these shoes. An additional strip of rubber is sewn along the entire perimeter of the sole, which protects the wearer’s toes and the boots themselves from accidental damage. The ankle and heel areas are trimmed with the same soft edging. The highlight of this innovation is English scrupulousness and the desire to do everything with high quality.
It's no secret that winter boots with embossed treads have recently been the dream of many representatives of the fair half of humanity. This is especially true for residents of small towns, where it is difficult to buy good shoes. Women who were lucky enough to buy winter shoes from the British company Karrimor consider their purchase a success. They called Karrimor shoes (reviews were left on the pages of online stores) warm and high quality.
The upper part of the shoe is made of suede. The lower part of the products under discussion is completely rubberized, so the shoes do not allow water to pass through.
Every item, even the most popular one, has its drawbacks. The downside of the model under discussion was its weight and somewhat rough appearance.
