text: These were great water shoes! I wore them while kayaking with my husband and 2 toddlers and they offered an unexpected GREAT amount of traction. Afterwards, I was able to continue wearing them for hours on dry land without the &#34;squish squish&#34; I have found in other water shoes. Very comfortable, functional, and surprisingly stylish, too! I have tried other styles including those highly rated on Amazon and I definitely recommend these bad boys :P
