Neo-Sportunisex-adult Low Top

These kept feel warm and confortable on a hike through a creek in a Utah slot canyon.

I purchased these "booties" to address potential rubbing and blisters inside my (also new) open back/adjustable strap swim fins. I have now used the fins about 10 times, 80% of the time, with the booties. I did not find rubbing to be a problem with or without the booties. However, I suspect that more extensive swimming without the booties may have resulted in in irritation and blisters. In any case, the fins are a bit more comfortable when using the booties and I recommend them for their usefulness, price and quality.More information:- The neoprene sock is fairly thin, but seem well made and reasonably durable- There is a texture on the sole that is very thin (it feels like it is silkscreened on), which does seem to offer some gripping/traction.- Fit: I wear a size 13.5 minimum (and a bit wide). The reviews strongly suggested that these socks run large. I can confirm that they do indeed run 1 to 1.5 sizes too large. I ordered a size 12 and they fit or were a teensy bit small. I would not advise ordering a larger size however, due to how the booties fit when in the water.- While swimming, my booties were a bit loose around the "body" of my foot. This was not a problem when I had fins on. When in the water, before or after putting my fins on, the socks would fill with water and stretch out a bit on the foot. It is kind of like having your foot inside a water balloon. The booties did not seem likely to come off my foot, so this was likewise not a "problem".- I wore the booties/socks while swimming with fins, and sometimes while walking on the beach or on gravel and concrete.- I sometimes wore the booties after getting out of the water and they served to keep the sand off of my feet and out of from between my toes between the beach and pavement, where I could put on my sandals.- I also occasionally wore the booties inside sandals and that was comfortable.- These socks are fairly low cut, and I was concerned the strap on my fin would ride up over the back of the sock. This did not happen. I would not mind having a similar sock that is an inch or two taller.- The top of the bootie is not "loose", it fits the foot snugly enough to stay on the foot. When stepping through a bit of surf, however, sand and water will pass easily into the interior of the bootie. Only the water seems to comes out. I found it easier to carry the booties and fins out into chest high water and then put them on. This is not a deal breaker, as I still found these socks to be very useful.- My wife has another brand of sock that has a velcro strap around the ankle. She did not seem to get very much sand into the interior of her socks.

I am a woman and wear a size 8 to 8.5 in women's. I ordered the Low Top Socks in a size 6 and they fit perfect. I used them recently when I went canoeing and had to walk through mucky and rocky waters to drag the canoe out from the shore. It was much better than being barefoot and the grips on the bottom allowed me not to slip. I had originally bought these to wear with snorkeling fins to prevent rubber burns, but haven't had the chance to test them out yet in that aspect. My husband also ordered a pair. He is normally a 10.5-11 in men's, but a 10 fit perfect. Overall, I highly recommend these!UPDATE!!We recently wore these while snorkeling without flippers in Hawaii, and I think it may have been one of my smartest decisions in life. The rocks are volcanic so they are very jagged, extremely sharp, and slippery. If I didn’t have these I would not have been able to do nearly as much as I could, like walk on the rocks that border the ocean or take breaks from snorkeling without going to the shore. Being able to comfortably stand on the rocks was amazing.Sand does collect in these which causes some sagging and stretching, so you will want them to be tight and if you are between sixes, size down otherwise they will fall off like a loose sock. And since I didnt wear flippers while snorkeling, my where sagging a bit from the sand collected and kicking to swim, and I would size down 1 size if I were to buy again.My husband wear these with flippers, and he's glad he had them to prevent rubber burns and so he could walk on rocky areas as well.Overall, these are a must have, especially if snorkeling/walking on rocky surfaces. They are also nice because you can wear them in the hotel (who wants to go barefoot?!) when going outside and you don't want to take real shoes with you.

These were great and very comfortable boots. I wear a 10 so I ordered a 9 since everyone seemed to say on reviews to go a size smaller. They were still a bit loose and I want them to be tight to keep sand out and not to come loose when diving. I use with my free dive fins and they fit snug so need boots to be snug as well so they don't bunch up or cause fins to come off. I reordered an 8 and will let you know how that does. I hope it works cause these are very comfy boots.update. The size 8 just came in and fit fine. a tad snug at toes but being Neoprene not uncomfortable. Haven't had on in water yet but seem quite comfy.

A previous reviewer was correct: they are definitely NOT 2mm thick; at best, 1.5mm. The low sock felt uncomfortable, so I tried to exchange it for the high sock, but the size selection was limited to either 5 and under or 13+. Seller does not offer free returns or exchanges.

I normally wear a Men's 11-11.5 depending on width, as my feet are definitely a bit wide which prevents me from wearing a lot of otherwise nice shoes because they're either too long or too tight. The size 9s of these fit great, not too tight, not too loose. Hopefully they hold up on my canoe trip for wetfooting at landings (will have shoes on too most of the time) so I'll try to remember to update this review later. I've given them 4 stars for now because I really can't speak to their durability or reliability, but a proper fit is more than half the battle, so I'll give them that.

I am big in to the outdoors, kayaking, hiking and off-roading. Something over looked most of the time is your feet. They make great minimalist shoes, super light weight and easy to pack or store. They are easy to clean. All in all this is one awesome product. I had to get a low top and high top pair. Thanks to the company for super fast shipping.

I normally wear a size 11-12 depending on brand, I went with the size 10 and they are still a bit big. Because they are very thin the neoprene is very stretchy. I got these to wear with my swim fins, because as I started increasing the workout intensity my feet were getting chewed up. I started with regular ankle socks, but they soon started getting stretched out so started looking for actual swimming socks, and these seem best so far; thin enough to keep the fins feeling comfortable, and still protects my feet from blisters and chaffing. So if you are using with fins or something over them order one size down, if you are going to wear them by themselves or with strap fins order 2 sizes down.

The socks run large. I wear a size 10 shoe and ordered a size 9 since neoprene socks should be snug instead of loose. I received the 9's and they were almost snug, but still fit relatively well. A size 8.5 probably would have been perfect.The problem with these socks is the seams are not smooth on the inside like most other neoprene socks. These seams are sewn from the outside and to the inside leaving a horrible bulge along the seam that runs one side of my foot to the other side right across all my toes making it very uncomfortable. The seam should have been sewn on the outside half only while the inside should have been glued like all other neoprene socks.

****If you are ordering these order smaller than your shoes size if you want them to fit like a wetsuit.****I have a narrow foot so maybe that's why these fit really loose on me. They are well made and they are comfortable. The grippy sole is a nice feature. The low cuts come above the ankle...like a high tops.

Good comfortable socks. Size seems true.The grippy pattern is sprayed on. A lot came off after a 3 block walk, 2 dives then a return walk. Doesn't affect performance tho

These booties fit true to size, do not order smaller or larger than what you would take in a shoe size.
