Review on CIOR Unisex Water Shoes Aqua Sneakers Lightweight Athletic Sport Shoes for Kids (Toddler/Little Kid/Big Kid) by Robert Aiono

I ordered two pairs of these shoes for my son last year and I have ordered two pairs this summer. My son currently wears a size 2.5-3 Plae but he can wear a size 3 in them and they don't slip but have enough room to grow. This part of the review is for the navy blue and orange style (see update #2 below for details on the blue glow-in-the-dark soles): they're stylish, comfortable, and easy to slip on for kids with wide feet. . They are light enough for my son to carry around the pool but have enough grip on the bottom for playing in the pool and climbing the water slides at camp. They are also good for the beach, but the sand is difficult to clean. The bad news is that the first pair I bought last year got frizzy from putting them in the dryer. I had to dry them because my son's wet bathing suits came home from camp and needed to be washed and dried the next day, and air drying wasn't always fast enough. So this year I plan to buy two pairs for one shift. Update #1 (07/01/2021): The navy blue and orange water shoes are holding up pretty well this summer. They're still the easiest to turn on and off that I've found. My son has used them over 10 times and they are still in good condition. A small amount of lint remains when air drying, but this blends in with the dark blue and can be trimmed off cleanly. Look at the picture and note that this is a close-up so it's less visible in person. I have bought water shoes from another major brand which cost a bit more and also wear out a bit after similar use. but ended up buying a slightly different style from the same list as my alternate pair for this summer. The shimmery blue color on the dark soles caught my eye and I have to say I love them and highly recommend them. fun style for a kid. He doesn't get up after dark, so I doubt we'll get much use from the glow in the dark, but I also like the green color of the soles. And they glow faintly in a very dark room! More like glow-in-the-dark clothing than stylized photographs. They're still very easy to slip on and off, but not quite as easy as the navy and orange style. So far the material looks perfect after more than 5 uses and is even a bit softer than the other models. I will update if there are any changes but I think these might be the best water shoes I have found. And I tried a few different brands and styles of water shoes for my son.
