Should Make Great Long-Haul Flight "Slippers "!

Just received these watersshoes today. My purpose for purchasing them was as "Airplane Shoes" on long haul flights because the paper shoes they hand out (on Delta anyway) may as well be from tissue paper. I am a 5' female with feet that fit a size 8 New Balance athletic shoe and a size 7 or 8 Old Navy Flip Flop (I can generally range between 7.5-8 in most shoes). So I purchased these in the Medium which states a Women's size 7-8. As you can see in the photos, the shoes fit with a bit of space in the toe box and/or at the heel. Since I'll be wearing them with compression socks, the extra room isn't a big deal.Pros:- For a cheap foot covering these appear to be well constructed. Time will tell how they hold up.- There is a 4mm removable foam insert that offers a minute amount of cushion for short term wear comfort.- The pattern/design is nice and uniform, not patchy or cheap looking. (I chose the GreyBlack space dye pattern)- There is a small nylon loop on the back of each shoe to assist with pulling them off or on.- The material is a soft neoprene and the hem around the ankle is comfortable and does not dig into the skin.- They have a thin but relatively sturdy rubberized sole.- Lightweight, easy to pack in a carry-on or other small bag.- On the color I chose, there is no branding anywhere on the shoe (maybe this is a Con for some people, but thought it worth noting).Cons:- The foam insert is thin and offers zero arch support or any support for long periods of standing/walking.- The exterior rubber sole has very minor "traction" patterns, which when on a wet surface would probably not offer much traction at all.- Sizing can be tricky. If I was at the lower end of their suggest size spectrum, I would probably size down; in between, I'd stick to their recommended size; and at the top of their suggested sizing, I'd either size up of stick to their recommendation.Overall I think these will serve the purpose that I intend for them.

Pros
  • They’re so comfortable, light weight and fit to size! Great water shoes and great price!
Cons
  • The socks may not be suitable for those with diabetes
