Reviewed by Kimmy Joy from Indiana but used in Algonquin Park Canada on Wednesday, May 22, 2013These shoes are perfect for canoeing and portaging. Because of using lightweight canoes, I get out of the canoe before jamming it on the shore and soaking my feet. Then I put on my pack and head out for the rugged trails filled with rocks and logs. These shoes, drain so quickly and still soaking wet, have great traction.

Reviewed by SKINNER from KENTUCKY on Sunday, May 19, 2013This shoe was recommended to me by a pool pal. Good water aerobic shoes are not easy to find if you have a high instep and need a good cushioned sole. These are great. I have a box full of new WA shoes that are not comfortable . THEY DO RUN LARGE .

Reviewed by Kimber from New Mexico on Friday, May 17, 2013I ordered these shoes for hiking and trekking around in Belize. I wanted a water shoe that wasn't a sandal. We leave in 2 weeks and I have been wearing them around without socks (no signs of becoming smelly) and they are very comfortable. Similar feeling to wearing running shoes. I think I will get different laces before we leave, because the ones they come with are a little long when you are planning on being in the water. I wore them to wash the car and deliberately sprayed them down so they were soaked. They drained out and dried quickly. Good shoes for the price, I would like to see how the new version compares.

Reviewed by Russian Beauty from Atlanta, GA on Friday, May 10, 2013Bought this shoes for Virgin River Zion Canyon Hiking, however water was too cold, thus cannot speak about their water drainage ability. But I used them for canyons hiking and they were great - very lightweight, very roomy, good gripping, shock absorbent, my feet love them & no rocks were stacked in the soles (despite somebody's complaints about that). To call them stylish would be a b-i-i-i-i-g stretch. To my taste they are not very attractive, otherwise I would give them 5 stars, but for hiking I would prefer performance and comfort over the style and look.

Reviewed by arthritic old lady from Walpole, MA on Friday, February 22, 2013used for water aerobics in indoor pool. Needs thicker sole to absorb shock of jumps. Laces come untied during water exercise. Need a toggle or lock lace closure to keep them secure.

Reviewed by Water girl from Chicago, Illinois on Sunday, January 27, 2013I bought these shoes for a water aerobics class that I take a few times a week. I've only used them once so far. They were easy to get on and very lightweight. It took about 30 minutes for my feet to get used to them, I got cramps in my feet at the start but they went away about 20-30 minutes into the class. They didn't dry instantly, but drain well after getting out of the water. I got many compliments in the looks, and I am really glad I found this site since they were at least $40 or more on other sites. I hope to be a.ble to use them for a long time. The ties/ shoelaces were more preferable to the pull cords as you can tighten or loosen them as you need to.

Reviewed by Dog Groomer Myndi from Howell, MI on Thursday, November 15, 2012I am a professional dog groomer and it is very hard to find shoes that keep your feet from getting soaking wet while you are bathing dogs. (They like to give you a bath too!) My feet are always wet and in the winter I am freezing cold. These shoes are great! They don't show any dirt and they dry quickly and give me great traction on the wet floors of the bathing room. I am recommending them to my groomer friends. I used to have to wear the UGLIST shoes to keep my feet dry and now I have these. I love the royal purple color. Great product, great price, happy groomer!
