Review on Stay Comfortable And Stylish With Metog Water Shoes – The Perfect Choice For Any Water-Based Fitness Activity! by Amber Vue

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for pool and kayak

I am a size 10 women’s shoe and the 9.5-10.5 fit a wee bit loose but I liked it that way. I do not have a wide foot. Initially I bought these to wear in the chlorinated pool for water aerobics 3 times per week but also use them for kayaking. They give me the firm sole to push into my kayak footer but are lightweight when I need to be in the water porting my kayak through low areas.The chlorine will do a number on these. I just ordered my third pair. I wore these 3-4 hours a week for 5 months plus 3 kayak trips. They do start to get a little fuzzy around the toes where I scrape them on the rough pool floor but the chlorine bleached the piping around the ankle opening and the integrity of the material was compromised. They began to lose their elasticity and stayed stretched. Today the shoes were coming off as I was kicking underwater - but I also had several little holes in my swimsuit - to give you an idea of how heavy the chlorine can be that I expose them too.Mine had an insert of foam-like padding that I could remove for drying or to have more flexibility in the pool but I personally don’t like the texture of the bottom of the shoe with the foam insert.These dry very quickly - usually in a few hours. I can pack them in the morning after being set out in the laundry room for about 12 hours.I’ve ordered another pair. I think 60-70 hours of pool time is well worth the $10.

Pros
  • Shoes
Cons
