Near PERFECT Barefoot Shoes
I bought these to wear as normal shoes without socks.My feet sweat a lot and I bought these hoping they'd be a breathable shoe I could wear barefoot that might pass as a regular sneaker. So far soooooo good!!ProsVERY breathable but not see-through, VERY lightweight and flexible, the toebox is nice and wide, I like the simple styleConsThe insole that came with these shoes has a honeycomb texture that pinched my feet when I walked. I usually get insoles for all my shoes so I'm not upset but if you have sensitive feet or are diabetic like me, be warned!I've had these for a few months now and I use these on the treadmill almost every day, and almost every day for just general use and I love them. I'm going to guess the adhesive will give out or the soles will wear down in a year or so and I will HAPPILY get another pair then.

Like putting clouds on my feet
I was not looking for water shoes, but for barefoot shoes that would give my toes room to spread and allow my feet to feel the ground under them. These got such great ratings that I decided to try them, after doing a LOT of comparison shopping. I chose a design that does not scream "water shoe! Look, I'm into water sports!" In other words, I didn't want to draw attention to my feet. (The shoes do look great, though.)These really fit the bill. As soon as I put them on, I felt like I was resting my feet on a cloud -- yes, they are that comfy. I took a walk in them, over uneven ground, and they still felt great. Even after I got home, where I normally go barefoot, I left the shoes on until evening, when I thought I should spend some time with my bare feet on my grounding mat.These shoes have a removable insole, which provides a bit of cushion but not support -- which is exactly what I wanted. If you want support, you should not be looking at water shoes or "barefoot" shoes, whose aim is to take away artificial support and let your feet muscles learn to do their job again. If that's what you want, you definitely should try these shoes.One word about sizing: I ordered the size that corresponded to my usual, which is the equivalent of a 41 in Euro sizing. When the shoes arrived, both the stickers on the soles and the size printed inside said 39. HOWEVER, when I tried them on, I knew immediately that they were the right size for me. So don't freak out if the sticker makes it look as if you were sent the wrong size -- try the shoes on before complaining or asking for a refund. I think you'll be as happy as I am with mine.

Great water shoes!
Love these! Have a size 13 wide foot and these fit well and very comfortable. Nice removable padded insert cushion for walking and decent tread for some traction.

None Diabetic User compliment
I am not diabetic but I love the wide foot and the easy to slide on ability. Aqua Blue color is so cute, so much so that I have had my friends compliment them and ask where I got them from. Super comfortable to wear around the house or for a quick errand run.

Perfect for beach and water activities
I wanted a water shoe that had a hard sole and had some structure to it without being too heavy when in water. These fit the bill. Sizing: I typically wear a ladies size8 and after reading the reviews saying they ran big I ordered a 7.5 and they fit perfectly! I wore them for a week while in Antigua in and out of water and in sand and around the resort’s paved walkways. Comfortable and held their shape without my foot sliding around in them. When lodged with sand I pulled the soles out and beat them together and the sand fell out easily. They also dried quickly on our balcony overnight baking in the morning sun. Priced at $25 I think these were worth it. I want to note however that I’ve purchased (and trashed) several other pair of cheapie water socks and shoes from Amazon and I’m not sure why the shape of the toes in these products that hail from china are curved in the toe bed so significantly, but on the big toe side, many I bought have this drastic curve. This particular pair have a slight curve to them but not to where it affects walking comfortably or putting pressure on your big toe. I’m guessing it’s designed that way to accommodate a larger toe bed. I do think it could affect the sizing which is possibly why they run big in reviewers posts. See pictures.
