I was looking for a pair of economical, durable wet water shoes that can be used on a boat on a lake and also on a concrete dock and wooden dock when launching and lifting the boat. This shoe has a thick, durable, lugged rubber outsole. The outsole is molded around the toe, sides and heel. The upper has a durable mesh and a drawcord with a plastic ball closure to tighten around the ankle. The shoe also features a removable rubber lining with a fabric-stitched insole. Overall great shoes for wet
