I have been wearing Adidas slides for years. I finally put a bullet in my old Calissage and hoped to replace them with the same. To my shock and dismay they were discontinued and nothing really replaced them, despite a virtual plethora of new styles. Since I found the regular Adissage to be painful because of the bumps and most of the others are not water friendly I opted for The SC or super comfort. I like them a lot but not nearly as well as the Calissage for a number of reasons. First of all, the footbed is not recessed so your foot has more movement within the slide itself. Compounding this is that the straps are noticeably thinner, offering much less lateral stability. And finally, THEY ARE REALLY SMALL. The 10 measured a full 1/2&#34; smaller than my Calissage. I needed to size up to 11. Given their current like up, these seem to make the most sense, especially for shower and beach use.
