Love these shoes!
I am very pleased with these water shoes. I normally wear a women’s size 8, sometimes an 8.5, and I ordered the W8/M6.5, and they fit me perfectly. I really like the style and the way the shoes look. They are lightweight and very comfortable, and they definitely gripped the wet rocks by our lake. Overall I am happy I bought them and would definitely buy again.

Style meets comfort at an incredibly affordable price (so you can buy all the styles!)
I bought like four different pairs of barefoot shoes to try. I always go back to these and basically never take them off. I have been a devoted wearer of snooty high-end athletic shoes but have found my feet still hurt. I wondered if a barefoot style with a wide toe box would be good. Well, these babies are just screaming to be on your feet. They are very light weight - and I worried that my feet would hurt, like in my mind I figured I needed so much more material around my feet. You don't. All of a sudden, your feet are free - yet stylish and concealed and ready for the world. I do not slip in these (others I find are not very good in that department - these excel in keeping you grounded) I have taken them to the ocean and in the garden, I don't need to worry about getting them wet because they are basically designed to take you into aquatic situations. I have worn these nearly every day and after two months they still show no signs of wear. I got them dirty and simply washed them with gentle detergent and they rinsed and dried nicely like new. I have not experienced anything like blisters or callouses which I figured would happen. These are such champs for my hooves that I intend to buy their other styles. I ordinarly wear a 7.5 or 8 in women's, and went for the 8.5 and I have never been happier. So for total toe freedom, you may want to opt for a half size larger than your ordinarily wear.

Back of Heel Rubs
I bought eight different pairs of water shoes. These are stylish, but the back of the shoe rubs my heel and I can tell it will give me a blister. The sole of these is very comfortable but a little thinner than others that I tried. It all depends on the amount of support you want in your shoe. I got a size 8 and 1/2, I usually wear a size 9, and it fit fine.

Typically a 9-9.5 wide in shoes and 9.5 fit perfect for me.
Perfect swim shoe. Used while camping at the lake. Good grip for unsteady and slippery rocks. My feet felt protected in and out of water. Lightweight, dry fast, & comfortable. Love how easy the inside sole comes out, makes for easy cleaning. I’m typically a 9.5 wide and the 9.5 shoe fit perfect for me.

A very comfortable, even when thoroughly used
Love this shoe. Bought it on a whim, leading up to a backpacking trip where we would be walking through rivers, rocks, mud, ect. I assume they wouldn’t hold up, but was totally surprised. I probably walked 35 of the 45 total miles of the trip in these shoes. They fit true to size. They are very comfortable. Everyone was jealous of my shoes and wondered where I got them. Highly recommend. I did not get any blisters which would be surprising for any shoe given the distance in a short period of time. The only issue I had was gravel getting caught near my Achilles on my left shoe. But again given the circumstances, this is a very small grievance. Very lightweight and stood up to many different conditions like frequent river crossings.

Barefoot water shoes
Lovely barefoot shoes. Very comfortable. Went swimming and hiking and they were very extraordinarily comfortable.

Better than I was expecting
I ordered these for a week-long trip to an active beach/pool/water sport resort. I am grossed-out by walking barefoot in public places where other people walk barefoot. Stepping in water dripping from people is even more disgusting to me. In addition to the aspects above, I used them when snorkeling to avoid stepping directly on rocks and when jet-skiing. They also work for avoiding hot sand and pavement. My goal was to get a week of use out of these, as I assumed they would fall apart after a week of almost all day use. But they exceeded my expectations. In addition to them being constructed well, they had a flexible rubber insert that was easily removable for washing out sand at the end of the day. These dried-out nearly completely just from sitting on the balcony overnight. Although these have a sporty "sneaker" look to them which I liked, keep in mind these are "water shoes" and intended to be worn where one would normally be barefoot (in or around a pool, beach, jet-skiing, standing on line for a water slide, etc.). They are not a substitute for flip-flops or Crocs that you'd wear outside of a wet area. Again, don't be a dufus and wear them out on the street, in a restaurant, etc. - wear them where it's acceptable to be barefoot. The tops and sides are constructed well, but are a thin elastic, breathable fabric that dries quick. In addition to the rubberized inserts I mentioned, the soles are an additional layer of rubber, however, they are still thin enough to "feel" what you are walking on (a wood deck, gravel, etc.) without the direct discomfort. But unlike other reviewers, don't think these will give you traction like Spiderman - if you're walking on river rocks or any other slippery surface - make your way cautiously as you would under normal circumstances.I suggest experimenting with the sizes - some stated they were true to size, but they ran large for me. I purposely ordered mine a few weeks before I needed them and had to return them for a smaller size - they weren't even close for me. I wear a size 12 sneaker and ordered these in a men's 12 and they were well over an inch too big. They were so big I assumed one size wouldn't help, so I ended up getting a size 10 and they fit perfect.NOTE: I purchased this item on Amazon for full price and have no affiliation to the seller. I try to write helpful, unbiased and insightful reviews because I also read reviews prior to making my own buying decisions. I notice many reviews lack helpful information, are too brief or give poor reviews based on not following directions, failing to read the product details prior to purchasing or inexperience. Writing useful reviews helps pay it forward.
