I bought these shoes to use on a one week vacation, only for when I would be going in the water.  I used the watershoes in the ocean once and after that the sole came out and regardless of how many times i put it back in, it would scrunch up and it it became unbearable to walk with these shoes.  I took the sole out and tried to walk without them, but they were so painful that i had to try to stick the soles back in but would have to adjust every 20 minutes or so.  They were so poorly made that i ended up just throwing them out at the end of my trip.
