SIMARI Water Shoes for Women & Men - Quick-Dry Swim Shoes for Pool, Beach, Surfing, Yoga & Outdoor Activities | Barefoot Aqua Socks | Ideal for Water Sports, Exercise & Summer Adventures (SWS001)

Sizing on this item is very strange and it’s kind of hard to figure out what size you wear. I wear a five to a 5 1/2 in a woman’s shoe and I actually bought the size that is one size smaller than the 5/6 in the ladies I bought the first 3/4. Anyway it’s perfect and I know it will stretch out a little bit and right now it’s perfect from heel to toe. I have a very small narrow foot and if I bought the 5/6 I know that I would’ve had too much space in there and that might’ve been dangerous for my walking. When the item came I held my breath and I put it on and it was like yes they fit thank God they fit! They are a great shoe for the price and I definitely will be buying more from them in the future.I bought this color for my boyfriend and the mint color for myself and we both loved them. We went tubing down a river and they worked perfectly to help us walk over the rocks. The bottoms are on the thin side and flexible but I liked that because I did not feel like my feet were trapped for the 5 hours we were floating.If you go tubing or rafting like 3 times a year these would be good for you. If you do more maybe invest in something a little sturdier but overall I think it’s a quality product.I am a size 7.5 so I got the 7/8 and they fit perfect, my boyfriend is a size 9 and he got the 9/10 and said they had extra room but he was able to wear them.Super easy to clean as well! Did not have any issuesIt took 3 times to get the right fit. For reference, I wear a women's size 10 shoe.The 1st pair was way too tight, toes cramped. (Style: Black.wz) women's 9.5-10.52nd pair way too big, would fall off as soon as they got wet. (Style: 2c-splice Green) women's 10-113rd pair (pictured, Style: Constellation) Women's 10-11 This pair fits fine enough. They are comfortable though no arch support and the souls feel really cheap. They are light weight and will work for the intended purpose. I do not expect them to last longer than the summer. You get what you pay for here. My advise, read the review on the specific style you are interested in to see if you need to size up or down. That's what I did to finally get a pair that fit.I have gotten water shoes in the past, and had to take them back... way too small. I have a very wide foot, mainly where tje toes meet the foot. Most shoes don't fit! These actually did! My only suggestion would be to get some lock laces for them.These 'shoes' work very well at my southFlorida beaches. I usually wear a 9-9.5 shoe so I got the size 9 water shoe.The fit is comfortable good but a wee bit too small and I'd expect that in short time my big toe will pop thru the front of one of them. The insole after the first use doesnt stay in place well and wants to exit the shoe.I give them 4 stars.. 4.5 stars if they had it. Bought a pair for my bride.Anyone swimming in the western Great Lakes knows you have to sometimes deal with rocks. Not with these water shoes! They might let in a little sand, but sand doesn't hurt... rocks do! No problem with these puppies. I have another pair that has a weak bottom and it works for moderate rocks, but at times when the water is very rocky, these work much better because they have thick soles. I am so glad I purchased them!I needed this to go out to a sandbar to protect my feet from any rocks or zebra mussels that I couldn't see. They worked perfectly. They kept sand out of my shoe and I couldn't feel anything sharp. Exactly what I neededThey did really well at keeping sand and rocks from penetrating and getting in. After using ,the insert it came with curls a bit when dried but no issue. I’m happy with my purchase. I bought them for kayaking. Why I say..I would order one size down is the length is alittle long - my foot moves around freely. I don’t like that because I want good fit when maneuvering kayak in and out of water. But again, I love them and ordered another pair!Sa va être moins dure pour mes pied quand je vais aller me baigner dans un lac ou une rivièreShoes are fine for what I bought them for.Ces petites chaussures seront parfaites pour mon aquaforme.BienVery good quality, the size was very fit. Strongly recommended.
