These Skechers arrived on time, fit perfectly (I always wear a size 9.5) and looked great (they don't sag like other cheap models that are actually flexible water shoes). They are definitely breathable and look like "cloth". The gray pair I have is light in color and the memory foam insoles are very comfortable. They're lightweight and stretchy enough to be worn barefoot. They're pretty hard to find, so get them while you can. I just received the black pair and they are just as soft and comfortable. I love these shoes. Not often available for men so get yours now.
