Review on UBFEN Mens & Womens Water Shoes: Quick Dry For Boating, Fishing, Diving, Surfing & More! by Marcus Hussain

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not for rocky bottoms

These are good, durable shoes but I made the ginormous mistake of buying these for use at The Narrows in Zion. These shoes are NOT good for rocky river bottoms. Stick to sand and smooth/forgiving surfaces. I literally destroyed my feet wearing these for the 2-3 hour hike on river stones a month ago. Particularly my right (dominant) foot, and at this point I think the pain is permanent. I'm so bummed it didn't occur to me that I'd need a thicker sole. I thought the flexible sole would be helpful over an uneven surface but I was WRONG.

Pros
  • Lightweight and easy to pack, making it a great travel companion
Cons
  • The shoes may not be suitable for people who need extra cushioning
