The North Face Zaba Water Shoes (For Men)

For boating and around and/or in water. Great fit, breathe well, dry quick, very comfortable.

The open-air upper does not have mesh inserts and the ports are very large. Mud, little pebbles easily get into the shoe and under your foot. Soles are solid on river rocks. If you intend to be in muddy areas, not the best choice.

I bought these shoes for Kayaking to replace the canvas topsiders I had been wearing for the last couple of years. These have great drainage, with large drain holes level with the footbed of the shoe. Good for clearing out sand and rocks. These shoes are quick-drying and comfortable, plus have excellent protection from sharp objects. My only complaint is the closure - tying and untying wet laces gets old fast. A spring-loaded clamp should solve this problem.

I wear these hiking, and fishing, even up to the store.
