BEST SHOES FOR AN ART (or any) TEACHER
Possibly the best water shoes I've bought (and I've bought over 100 pairs). I get compliments on their design and color scheme when I wear them to school (art teacher here). I am constantly moving and on my feet 7 hours a day and these are amazing.Pros:high quality materials which are resistant to many mediums (paint, clay, glaze, even glue). I can wash all that away and they look brand new. They are made for walking and as someone who walks over 20K steps before 10AM, I am so in love with these shoes. As a teacher, I had surgery on my feet 15 years ago and was told no more heels. So I buy watershoes in fun colors and these are the best ones so far. In fact, I just ordered 3 more pairs and am starting to give away my other shoes because of how comfortable and easy maintenance these are.CONS:none, other than we need more color schemes.

Size is true to fit and very comfortable
The shoes feel great. I bought them mainly to to wear at the beach because the sand gets so hot. I am sure I will wear them when I walk in the mornings. The shoes are very lightweight and the qualityis better than I expected. Arch support is good. The size is perfect. Great price

Comfortable and stable
My shoes usually come off the minute I get indoors, so a “barefoot” shoe sounded great! The shoes run a tiny bit large, but still very wearable. Unlike some ads I’ve seen, they don’t heal all of my pain or health issues, but they are very comfortable, with a roomy toe-box, and feel quite stable when walking around. The only thing that kept it from being five stars for me is that walking on large gravel is sometimes very uncomfortable (not quite as much as when barefoot, but the thin soles allow the sharp edges of the rocks to create pressure points on the bottom of my feet). I do recommend them, especially for flat, soft and smooth surfaces. And they have laundered beautifully (delicate wash cycle, air dried).

Comfortable and Cute
I love these barefoot shoes. They’re so comfortable and are making my feet stronger by letting them function as nature intended. My bedroom slippers make my feet hurt and when I change into these they feel better almost immediately. My feet get cold in cool weather so unless I’m active I wear the hike barefoot booties, which are lined and much warmer. These are perfect for warm weather and for those whose feet sweat. They can be worn with or without socks, but if wearing inserts I would order up a half size as these are true to size for wearing barefoot or with thin socks. I love mine and have them in several colors.

Super comfortable
I bought these having no idea what they were going to actually look and feel like and I was very pleased. They are extremely comfortable and can be worn all day long.

LOVED these shoes except...
These shoes are really comfortable and flattering and I loved them when I put them on. However, the holes mean you can't wear them during the winter, or if you don't want things poking you through the holes, or at jobs that have rules about wearing safe shoes (i.e. ones without holes on the bottom). Also, one that I bought was well-glued, the other was a bit more messily glued.If they make a version of this shoe without the holes on the bottom, I would definitely be interested in checking them out!

Decent for the price. Not for water shoes.
Decent shoes for summer, kind of flimsy,Wouldn’t use them for water shoes.
