Review on πŸ‘ž HOBIBEAR Boys Girls Closed-Toe Water Sandals: Ideal Outdoor Footwear for Kids (Toddler/Little Kid/Big Kid) by Richard Alemayehu

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Surprisingly good summer shoes

I was a little hesitant to buy these because I had never heard of this brand. After seeing this shoe being sold under different names I was doubly skeptical that it could be a decent shoe. However, so far so good! My son is 1.5 feet on one foot and 2 on the other foot so he needs 2.5 but 2.5 is rare in shoes so I have to get 3. This makes it harder because 3 is usually too big. In addition, he has wide legs and a high instep. However, these shoes were perfect. Lightweight and the upper is covered in neoprene-like fabric, making them comfortable and flexible. I know because I have not received any complaints! My son likes to wear shoes. The toe box is closed in such a way that the little toes stay in the shoe, but the shoe is still breathable. The Velcro secures his foot well (technically the shoe is too big given his current foot size). Once in camp they got wet and took about two days to air dry. I could probably put them on the vent or use a fan to dry them faster but having bought a similar pair (different brand) at the same time I took my time. I would recommend breaking them in and only wearing them for a few hours at a time. You will rub your child's leg. While I'm used to wearing shoes without socks, my son doesn't wear them and quickly developed blisters. We're taking a break from his tennis shoes now, but they seem to be fast becoming a favorite part of the shoe. I am seriously considering buying more sizes for next summer
