The laces are a miss! in my rating

Great shoes! I actually bought these for my son to use in parkour. The landing is firm and reliable, the bottom prevents slipping on obstacles! The only problem is that the tougher material that the laces go through will tear the laces apart. Initially the clasp came loose but I was able to put it back on until we could fix the parts but now the laces are ruined and while we love the shoes I won't be buying another pair only to have the same thing happen and everything is broken is a…

Pros
  • Fast-drying and moisture-wicking properties keep feet dry and fresh.
Cons
  • Unreliable heel support

My son gets blisters on his heels

These shoes are difficult for young children to put on. The inner foot pad falls out if you take them off wet. Now they give my son bubbles.

Pros
  • 4 years, beach and boating.
Cons
  • Inaccurate size

Terrible blisters when worn without socks

My daughter loves them and I love that they are minimalist. Unfortunately, the first day she wore them without socks, she got horrible blisters on her heels. Unfortunately, as they are intended for in-water use, I don't think they will work for us.

Pros
  • My daughter is thrilled to wear them on her next rafting trip.
Cons
  • I really liked them but they were very big. I gave them to my sister in law.

Great for parkour: my review

I bought these shoes for my son who does parkour. He loves them very much and even other parents and children asked where he got these shoes from. Good grip on walls when it needs to climb.

Pros
  • Available in a variety of colors and sizes to suit all tastes and needs
Cons
  • Unreliable traction

Great buy, my pros and cons

My whole family has a pair. The only issue with a great purchase is a cut at the top of my son's left leg where the lace is. Haven't taken the time to explore it yet, but my son hasn't worn shoes since.

Pros
  • I loved everything about the style and performance of this shoe. More importantly, my kids love them more!
Cons
  • Low quality materials

Great quality and style but maybe a larger size

This is the second summer that I have received these water shoes for my active 9 year old. They stay on his feet even in muddy swampy areas, protect his feet when climbing rocks or walking on concrete/asphalt. They wash off easily and dry fairly quickly. If you are between sizes, you can go up one size.

Pros
  • Made from high quality, wear-resistant materials
Cons
  • Difficult to put on

Ideal! -- my new rating

Our beaches are not sandy very well, protecting feet from all kinds of shellfish and other things in the water or on the sand. My son loves them and is very picky when it comes to water shoes. Both are very satisfied with this water shoe.

Pros
  • Trusted brand with a solid reputation for quality and reliability
Cons
  • Unreliable wet performance

Water shoes are the best in my rating

Bought these as our new water shoes for the summer. Great that they have a rubber bottom so my son doesn't slip in them. Dries quickly and is easy to wash. I will buy again.

Pros
  • The non-slip outsole provides security in wet and slippery conditions.
Cons
  • Poorly designed laces

Summer Essential in my review

I love these river shoes. True to size. I had to figure out the exact size but compared to European sizes it was easy. Comfortable in the water and on land. Not slipped, nothing. There are no marks on the ankles either. Highly recommended.

Pros
  • Great product as described. Thanks!
Cons
  • slippery sole

Not for water play, no socks = blisters

These shoes are durable, pretty and breathable BUT they take a long time to dry and if worn without socks (which is common with water shoes) they will cause blisters. I wanted a pair of shoes for my young children to use for hiking and playing in the creeks. But my kids complained that their feet stayed wet long after we got out of the water, resulting in blisters. These are great shoes with socks but not for water as advertised.

Pros
  • Great shoe, my little use for hiking. Comfortable, good profile, wide toe
Cons
  • Does not support growing legs.

Ideal for slippery rocks

Ideal for fast water currents and very slippery rocks. My son used them while we were vacationing in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. Belts that helped tighten, we're the best part. His legs didn't slip or move like they did without them. I definitely recommend them for places with slippery rocks!

Pros
  • Provides ample support for growing feet
Cons
  • Not suitable for water sports

BLISTERS in 20 minutes!

A 10 year old used it for 20 minutes and got blisters, couldn't use it anymore. So get ready to spend money for just 20 minutes.

Pros
  • Very comfortable and a perfect fit
Cons
  • My son walks very easily in shoes but he has blisters from these, I can't wear them

Comfortable - my new rating

Very comfortable and the sole feels spongy. It's very easy. It runs a bit small, but since it's stretchy, it feels very comfortable.

Pros
  • The non-marking outsole ensures that surfaces are not damaged or rubbed off
Cons
  • Not universal

Heel blisters are the best in my rating

Every summer I order bathing shoes for my son. It was buying a new brand. We liked how they looked and he liked how they felt until they were worn all day. As a result, he was left barefoot because the boot was rubbing a large blister on his heel. He tried again a week later and got the same result. Unfortunately this is not a brand I will buy again.

Pros
  • Protects feet from sharp objects and hot surfaces.
Cons
  • Limited ankle support

That's exactly what I wanted

I wanted a flexible shoe for my little one that had a wide toe, zero drop, and a neutral color that went with everything. That's all I wanted. My toddler loves them and wants to wear them voluntarily. In these shoes they can run, climb, play in the water or do whatever they want with confidence and comfort. The only downside is that I can't say anything about the durability, especially since I can already see some loose seams. Only time will tell if they hold up.

Pros
  • Easy to put on and take off
Cons
  • Cannot handle rough terrain

love their latest review

This fit my daughter perfectly, the strings were a bit longer but other than that she loves them. We have her for camping and when we fish just in case she needs to get in the water :)

Pros
  • Bought these for Cancun for my 10 year old daughter, she had no complaints, easy to crack
Cons
  • Used for river rafting on a 6 seater raft.

Cute, waterproof but may cause blisters

My son loved the look of these shoes but when they got wet they caused a blister on his foot. After that, he cried every time I asked him to put them on.

Pros
  • Great fit.
Cons
  • Poor traction on wet surfaces

Great water shoes: my review

Buy these for my 10 year old to swim in the pool. Works great, easy to put on and take off, keeps your foot from slipping in sand and water, and doesn't cut into the arch of your foot like other water shoes. They are one size larger than described.

Pros
  • Affordable and good value for money
Cons
  • Prone to discoloration

Attention - do not wear without socks.

Had to return these shoes after wearing them for less than an hour. Bought them as "water" shoes to wear on a hike and in the water without socks. Causing blisters and digging into my kids' heels. Bad design.

Pros
  • What for my son to use his river shoes. They are very durable, super comfortable and easy to clean!
Cons
  • Nice but they gave 2 out of 5 of us blisters. They are also very big.

Boys and girls should never wear the same shoe size.

Shoes for boys/men are always wide, wide for a boy's foot, too wide for a normal or narrow girl's/woman's foot. Had to go back

Pros
  • Stylish and fashionable design adds zest to any outfit
Cons
  • Unattractive design
