Review on Barefoot Shoes: Fast-Drying Men's Athletic Footwear for Water Sports by Jeff Billingsley

I love these shoes but they run small. When I sent them back and ordered the next size up, they fit perfectly. I have never ordered beach shoes before, so I have no comparison. I haven't been on holiday yet so I don't know how they do in the sand but they fit well and are snug and I don't expect much sand will get into them. The phone case is made quite cheaply, but they are not that expensive to start with. It's fairly roomy and should help me carry my phone hands-free without pockets. Can't say I completely trust the idea of being waterproof, but it seals fairly tightly and seems to at least be able to hold sand.
