Bang for buck shoes! GET THEM CALFS
Had it for 2 days and running with them is a game changer, comfy and very light. Has good build quality. I will return and update this comment if anything comes up. But HIGHLY recommend get one size bigger. Example im a 7.5 and 8 is perfect. My brother is a 9 and a 9.5 is perfect.

Amazing Water Shoes
These water shoes are a great choice for anyone tackling rocky water environments. The sizing is good, offering a snug yet comfortable fit. The lace-up design is really helpful, allowing you to adjust the tightness for a secure fit. The rubber outsoles, reinforced toe cap, and sturdy sole provide good grip. They dry relatively fast, making them ideal for frequent water-to-land transitions.

NOT FOR RUNNING
These shoes are great for what they are and well-worth the price. Go with the description: THEY ARE GREAT FOR HIKING, TRAINING, SWIMMING (apparently). They offer a lot of toe space which you feel at the end of your walk/hike, and that's all there is too it. I still prefer to walk barefoot but will be keeping these for small-fit size in luggage for hiking when I travel. So, why 4 stars and not 5?THESE SHOES ARE NOT FOR RUNNING.I bought them thinking they COULD BE, since a) the description said they were in the title, and b) many reviews said so as well.Going with basic knowledge here, I understood my suspicion when I tried them out for a 2 mile run (and as an avid runner, whose ran marathons) I immediately felt the ache of chin-splits coming on, which I haven't had in YEARS; and it was due to running on hard pavement with shoes that offer NO HEEL or ANKLE support, in line with no cushioning for your knees should you keep running the distance. I immediately had to stretch and still feel it. It definitely felt lacking in that momentum area, where say.. Nike shoes give you that nice bounce, boost, and rhythm when running. All in all = worth the price and flexibility.

Light and comfortable
Wife bought me these to replace the flip flops I wear out. These are light and easy to put on they are not slip ons but just as convenient to use. Very light and breathable I have to use heel pads, would consider using arch supports, but these are so light I am considering multiple pairs just to keep availability.

$29 not a disaster.
For barefoot-sneakers like this (which are meant to make you feel as if you’re wearing nothing), there are very few factors to evaluate them on.I got this for $29 in early Oct 2024. I have used this for well over a dozen walks now. I am definitely enjoying the Velcro.My 1st walk (all my walks/hikes are 1.5-2 hrs long) was a bit painful. It was pinching the natural-fold under the front-sole of my feet. PERSONAL OPINION: I think "hiking" style shoe-soles with "spikes" are a BAD idea for such "barefoot shoes". These soles for such shoes should be simpler and "featureless".FYI - My feet stink very easily. So, I am required to use Dr. Scholl’s odor-eaters in all of my footwear. I forgot to insert those odor-eaters for my 1st walk. The 2nd time I wore these sneakers, I put in these odor-eaters. That made the difference - re: any pain. With colder temperatures now, with Costco's woolen-socks, there's even more comfort.By the 4th walk, I think the "spikes" of the Sole got worn out and it was somewhat comparable to the reasonable brand-name like "Whitin", which sells for around $44. Also, there is a tiny stitching-deviation on the right sneaker, that causes the metal-hook for the Velcro to turn 90° and make a mess of the velcro (but, there's a simple & reversible easy fix that you need to do everytime).The last “evaluation factor” is to wash these barefoot-sneakers. The "Whitin" brand was meant to be washed; So, I will soon find out if these will withstand a simple wash in a bucket.I get paid well to afford the extra $15 to buy Whitins the next time around - independent of whether these are truly REPEATEDLY washable.

Great product.
Great for working out and in water use. Just bought my bf his second pair and he loves them. Material is good and not too thick, quality is good. Easy to machine wash and very stretchy.

Very comfortable
I've just received them today. They feel great! I'm very happy with this purchase. I hope they last a long time, but I'll understand if they don't since they are so inexpensive.

Great for the water or outdoors
Why did you pick this product vs others?:I thought I'd try a different brand, they're good, but not as good as the first ones I bought. The InStep is positioned more to the inside, so it encourages your foot to be a little bit on the inside angle, it affects the arch supportSize: I thought I'd try a half size bigger
