After drooling over Keen and Merrell water shoes but not liking their price point, I found these Northside water/hiking shoes for a very affordable price and then marked down to a single-digit drastically reduced sale price in a certain color.  I decided to order a pair for myself and my daughter, taking a chance on what we would end up with.  Im so glad that these did not disappoint!  Easy to slip on, adjustable elastic laces with a locking toggle, decent soles, and dry material inside footbed.  Ive been wearing these for over an hour around the house and yard and they are very comfortable, my feet are well ventilated, and they look great too.  So for a fraction of the price of the big brand water shoes, I recommend trying these.
