It is great. The bottom is hard and allows you to walk on stones without discomfort. The shoes look great and hold most of the grit and grit. Any time I'm in the water for any length of time, some sand tends to come up, but there's so little of it that it doesn't matter. Comfortable, good quality, looks great, easy to put on and take off with no adjustments. They're a little tight, but they still fit snugly and you don't want them to be big enough for more sand to get in. They dry out very quickly. top rate.
