By ChromeHound from Pacific Northwest on 07/08/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Good Traction, Great Fit, Lightweight Best Uses: Casual Wear, Rafting, Wading, Walking/Hiking Describe Yourself: Recreational User Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought these for my wife after another brand of water shoe didnt fit right. Her feet blister very easily. These Paddas have quite alot of cushion on the major rub points of the foot. She recently spent 4 days in them on a backpacking trip, both in the water and on short day hikes and not a single blister. Because of the extra padding, they dont dry quite as quickly as some others but well worth it if you have sensitive feet. Also, they are very lightweight, making for a great versitile backpacking shoe once you get to where you are going and want to get out of your boots.
By kg from Duluth, MN on 06/29/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Easy On and Off, Good Traction, Great Fit, Lightweight Best Uses: Boating, Casual Wear, Kayaking, Walking/Hiking Describe Yourself: Recreational User Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Loved the shoes. Like everyone else has said I would recommend ordering them a half a size smaller- I did and they fit perfect!
comfortable but not quick drying By happycruiser from Atlanta, GA on 05/02/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Good Traction, Lightweight Cons: Difficult On and Off Best Uses: Boating, Kayaking, Rafting, Sailing, Wading Describe Yourself: Recreational User Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought a pair of Paddas for a cruise in the Caribbean. Walked into water with them, kayaked and walked around in the ruins. I was wearing them without socks for watersports, but for longer walks I had to put socks on to avoid blisters. They have almost no arch support and no cushioning. Would not use these Paddas for hiking, there is not enough arch support. People with high arches have a difficulty with water shoes in general due to lack of arch support in this type of shoe. Padda is one of the best options out there even with these typical limitations of water shoes. So far it is the best water shoe that I have tried. Yet, they took a long time to dry even in the hot Caribbean sun. On average it took 24 hours to dry. My husband also had a pair of the same Padda shoe for men and his took the same long time to dry.
