WateLves Womens and Mens Kids Water Shoes Barefoot Quick-Dry Aqua Socks for Beach Swim Surf Yoga Exercise

great quality. I bought these for my daughter’s birthday, She loves them and always wears them to the beach. I knew she would because I was given a pair a few years ago and ALWAYS wear them! I have had problems with my feet and have had to wear not so pretty shoes because of bone and support issues. These water socks are so comfy – walking on the shell filled shore and even the rocky parking lot to get there. No problems! I have bought more for myself and my husband. These are excellent water socks!

buy a half size bigger than you wear. I wear a 13 men’s shoe, so I ordered a 13.5 for men, which fits well. For reasons unknown shoes made in some Asian countries are smaller than most other shoes and, knowing that was possible, I bumped the size up a half size. They fit well and do what was intended – protect my feet from bums and small gravel while swimming.

Very comfortable, great protection. These are wonderful! I own 2 pairs: first pair I bought summer 2021. I use them to wear on the dock and to swim in the lake in the summer. They hold up very well for what I use them for. They stay on my feet very well, even while kicking hard as I swim, but if you’re worried they will slip off, fear not: they float! So, if they do happen to slip off, they are easy to retrieve. I still use this pair every summer since I got them and they’re in great shape. I make sure to remove the insole and rinse them with clean water and set them out to air dry. So far no holes, rips, or signs of wear.I recently took a trip that involved a lot of swimming in a particularly rough-surfaced pool and found myself wishing I had a pair of these with me. The pool is a salt water pool, so it softens my skin up a bit, but the surface of the pool is sandy and gritty. This unfortunately means the parts of my feet that grip and kick off the floor of the pool get torn up easily, to the point of needing bandages. So, I ordered a pair and they came in a couple of days. They felt amazing on my feet as soon as I put them on. Definitely a game changer! I used them in the pool for the rest of the trip and they felt awesome. They protected my feet and for that, they get all 5 stars. They are also very lightweight and lay flat, so they’re great to pack for traveling.A note about their durability: Any little snags or spots of wear I take as a sign that the shoe did its job: it took a hit for my foot. Kind of like a sacrificial anode rod in your water heater that rusts apart for the sake of the system. That being said, there are few if any actual signs of wear so far. Mine have held up awesomely, because they are water shoes and that’s what I use them for. I don’t need them to have arch support; they’re water shoes, not walking/running/hiking shoes. I don’t need them to be steel-toed, they’re not construction shoes. I don’t need them to stand up to rocky, rough terrain, because they’re water shoes. If you think of these as a layer of protection for your feet while you are swimming/moving around the water (beaches, pools, docks) you will not be disappointed. If you are scaling rocky craggy jettys at a rocky beach, maybe get yourself a more substantial water shoe. If you are hiking and you think these would be suitable, maybe get yourself some sense.

Great protection, good fit. Got a membership to a local waterpark that is apparently paved with sandpaper, so I went looking for water shoes the next day. These were the best rated that would be available for our next trip so I took the plunge.The pattern is eye-catching and likely to stand out whatever your swim gear looks like, but it does make it easier to find in the water if it happened to slip off.These provided great protection from the rough waterpark flooring and very hot swim deck, and I’ll definitely be keeping these around for any trips to the beach/lake/river. My feet were completely pain free after use and I was able to walk around the water park for hours on our second visit with no problems. As an added surprise, I have plantar fascitis and where my feet are usually pretty stiff and sore after being on my feet all day with most shoes, there was no pain after wearing these for a good 4 hours.I have small feet and water shoes are often pretty floppy on me. I have high insteps, so I usually wear a women’s 6 in active wear and a 7-7 1/2 in heels. The women’s 5-6 here was perfect: probably 1/2″ + extra in the toe area for me, but not so awkward I had to do a Goofy wearing diving flippers walk while wearing them underwater.These were snug without being too hard to get on and only got close to coming off a when I was dumb enough to step on my own foot. I can’t speak to the long-term durability of these, but they seem pretty solidly what I’d expect from a ~$10 pair of shoes, and I’m expecting they’ll last a good season or two which is fine by me.The sole is a slightly cushioned insert inside attached to a thin, patterned rubber sole on the bottom. So, idk, thin enough Toph from Avatar could probably still earthbend in them, but thick enough to provide protection against sand, rough or hot cement, or pebbled ground barring the occasional poky rock.Very happy to be pain free after using these and will be keeping them around for future use.

Perfect all around watershoe. Exactly as described. Great fit and comfort. Nonslip, lightweight, good quality.
