My old water shoes need replacement. I like the look of these as they seem to be comfortable on land. Plan to wear them a lot on ttrip to Bahamas later in Spring. Tried them out in our hot tub- they were fine. I like the toggle on the lace to adjust fit as one of my feet is a bit wider & longer than the other. So far they seem good. Water drains out quickly and they did not get soggy and weighed down while under water.
