Toasty feet!
Great product and company! I dive commercially (in a wetsuit) here in the PNW, these keep my feet toasty and protected. Works like a champ!

Great if you don't swim or move around much.
First off, I'm an inland commercial diver, so I go underwater a lot more than the average joe. I bought these because I needed a simple and easy scuba shoe to use for work. Unfortunately, these do not live up to the 5 star reviews for one glaring flaw: There is no strap to keep the zipper from falling down! If you move through mud, walk around on bottom, and especially swim with or without fins, the zipper will come all the way down and it will flop around and gather a ton of dirt, sand, and debris into your boot. I hate it, it's super annoying and it's a pain in the butt. This is especially annoying in the winter because it keeps coming down and letting freezing cold water onto your feet. Right now I have to use electrical tape to tape around my ankles before I go into the water. It's annoying and I shouldn't have to do that. I will definitely be buying a different brand once these get worn out, one that has a zipper strap. Other than that, they're fine.
