SOBASO Water Shoes Women Men Quick Drying Swim Beach Aqua Shoes for Water Sport Diving Hiking Sailing Travel

I bought these for kayaking! I am a Women's Size 8. I ordered the Women's 7.5 in these water shoes. And my toes still have tons of room (without socks). Size 6.5 would be way too small for me, so this is as close to my size I can get. Fortunately, tightening up the laces does make a world of difference in terms of making my feet feel secure in the shoes. ADVICE FOR TIGHTENING LACES -- especially for those breaking the rubber lace bindings -- DO NOT just pull on the laces at the top. Tighten them carefully at each "criss-cross" and then secure at the top with the lace "lock". Don't be too rough with them. The tread is good and strong, the material is nice, the rubber lace loops are pretty durable, and they feel comfortable on my feet. Also the color is great. They do "pucker" a little between the laces, especially if you're tightening them enough to fit. But this is because instead of a shoe "tongue" like hiking and street shoes have, the water shoes are one complete woven "sock," so it makes sense that the tightened fabric has no where else to go haha. Two pictures for two different lightings so you can see the colors. UPDATE: Took these swimming in an alpine lake this weekend. I'm pretty damn pleased. They were great on rocks, kept my feet safe, were light in the water, weren't loose on my feet, and dried relatively quickly. 10/10

Great water shoes the thick sole is great for walking on rocks and rough terrain comfortable with the removable inserts for easy cleaning

Fit nice and feel good

So, I intentionally waited to review these shoes, because everything is rosy when it's new. I was surprisingly pleased with the shoes. I'm an older person, so I just use these to walk around the pool and with which to frolic in the water. As other reviews stated, these do run large, but I considered that when ordering. These are far more substantial than the shoes I was replacing. They provide good stability for the activity I do. Others have claimed they are cheaply made and one review complained they were slippery when wet and couldn't do cliff jumping. Let me just say if you're jumping off cliffs you may want to consider a more substantial shoe, just sayin'. I've had no issues with the lace gizmo, as others have claimed. Bottom line: 5 stars

I got these water shoes to use with my fishing kayak and for shore fishing, wading and adventuring in the summer. These things are heavy duty, much better than the cheap water shoes you find all over the place. No issues hiking in a wet environment all day, and the rugged nature of these protects your feet. I’ve had these for a few years now and they hold up nicely. The only downside is that they have a tendency to trap a ton of sand. I usually don’t notice until they’re dry, and the sand just pours out. That’s not enough to knock it down in my book though, these are amazing water and adventuring shoes.

Nice aqua shoes, but don't hold up under use too long and run somewhat small, this is my third pair owned....wear US size 13, need 13.5 to fit properly.....quality of shoe this last time didn't seem as good as prior ones, purchased different color

Good grip on wet rocks. Has held up well.

I’d give it a zero, but Amazon won’t let me. I bought the exact same shoe three years ago and loved them. They were rugged and made it through 40 miles of a canoeing trip with several miles of rocky incline portages, plus I used them for over a year jetty rock hopping while fishing here on the coast. This time, however, I got junk. I wore them walking for about two miles around a local walking path and the sole began to separate along the sides of the heels. My trip was in two days, so no time to return to Amazon. I brought them back up to Boundary Waters along with a tube of barge cement adhesive. The adhesive gets 10 stars, but the shoes were awful. The soles continued to separate on both shoes. Every two days I would have to reglue. Not only that, the sole wore a hole through the fabric part after 6 days of use. The bottom rubber is a honeycomb mesh on the inside. Mucky water gets trapped in this layer causing these shoes to smell rancid garbage and I had to flush the layer out several times. My son got identical shoes, just a different color. His held up like my first pair, and didn’t trap water like mine. Quality control on these obviously stinks. I put about 6 miles on these in the field. Granted, it was sometimes some rough rocky terrain….but for $36 they should at least last for this. I have extremely flat feet and waterproof boot arches are painful for me to wear. The softer cheaper rubber on water shoes gives much better traction than the wear resistant higher end shoes. That was the only redeeming value on these. I never slipped.

Very comfortable to wear all day in the pool or at the beach. Quick dry material is also very breathable.

After 7 weeks of wearing, the glue give up, not a reliable product.

Ficou apertado mas é muito bonito

After knee surgery not strong on my feet. These grip well, I’m really happy with them. They are a little wide but they stay on my feet. You must get the black shoe that’s red on the back and yellow arrow on the sole- this is the version that has the grippy soles. Other colours/styles may not. So far so good for me with my aqua therapy sessions!

We ordered a couple of these from different suppliers, sizing is all wrong on them, some to big and others way to small. Pot luck what you get
