Tilos Socks

I can't believe I didn't know about these sooner!!!I (we - my husband also got a pair and loved them) bought these to take on our Mexico beach vacation. I've brought other water shoes before, and while good for excursions and such, they were not good for just walking on the beach because they would quickly fill with sand. THESE are great for beach walking! The sand on the beach in Cabo heats up quickly during the day, and will actually burn your feet if you're not careful! These made it so easy to just slip on and walk on the sand without feeling ANY heat. They are also SUPER comfortable! They are light weight and soft. I actually wondered if they were going to work and hold up because of that, but they were perfect!We also used them when we went Kayaking and Jet Skiing; they had great traction for getting on and off the equipment. Additionally, I wore mine in my flippers when we went snorkeling, because I inevitably either rub my heals and/or the tops of my feet raw if I don't wear something, and these fit in the flippers perfectly.NOTE!!!!!! DON'T GET A SHORTER ANKLE VERSION! Get the taller - over the ankle - crew size. My niece brought a different brand that was only ankle height, and she had a LOT of trouble with hers quickly filling up with sand just walking on the beach.Also - these are not for standing and playing in the rough surf and letting the waves (full of sand) crash over your feet and legs. Even with the adjustable ankle strap, the waves were too strong, and would push the sock down, which would then cause them to fill up with sand.They are easy to wash and quick to dry. I just washed ours in the sink with some mild soap, rinsed well, and hung them to dry.The size was also perfect for both me and my husband. I wear a size 7 to 7.5 women's and purchased the Small. My husband wears a size 10, and we got him the Large.

Didn’t realize there was a no return policy. So now I’m stuck with sand socks that don’t fit. If you think you may need to return, read the fine print first! Never had something I’ve ordered from Amazon unreturnable. Disappointed.

I just received these so I can not speak to the quality yet, but will amend after I have used them. I wear a ladies size 9 & ordered a medium and they are huge-- thinking I need to wxchange for a small. The blue floral are a nice Hawaiian print and come up about ankle high with an adjustable tab at the ankle. The bottom has a slight padding. I want to wear with my Columbia water sneakers so I tried on the sneakers both with and without their innersoles and these socks-- without the innersole the socks will work perfectly, with they are a bit snug.

LOVE LOVE LOVE these socks for sand volleyball!I bought these after I couldn't handle my feet being raw after playing a few hours of sand volleyball on rough sand. These socks have been perfect and they are holding up really well after a month of playing. I will put pics up at the end of summer to show you how they hold up. But even if they only last 1 summer they are so worth the price. Normal socks don't last 2 games.I wear a 9.5 women's and I ordered a M (8-9) and they fit perfect.

A few quick thoughts:1) Sand still got inside the sock within a few minutes of being on the beach.2) I have never seen a human foot shaped like the bottom of this thing.3) I only knew what size to get from reading the other reviews (order a smaller size than normal). I normally wear a 8.5 in man-dude size, and the small is still a bit too long for my foot.

Got them for my son and my hubby when we went for a snorkling trip. They loved them. They said the socks were very comfortable, prevented sand from getting inside the flippers and getting blisters.

Well made. Velcro cuff makes them the easiest to get on and off of all these types of socks. Used them in karate class for a few months and washed semi-weekly, they've held up. A bit too loose for the twisting action of martial arts, as have to adjust them back to square under my sole very often. Would likley be a 4 or 5 star as a yoga or beach sock, or other applications where not so much twisting torque was placed on them. Breathe and wash well as only uses neoprene on sole/to/heel.

I bought these hoping they'd fit, but assuming they wouldn't and I'd have to return them. Anyone with a foot larger than US 13 who has ever tried to find comfortable water socks for their wading boots, wetshoes, etc., has had to settle for socks that were too tight and hurt after a few hours. These fit me, they are a lot warmer than no socks at all, and I can wear two pairs at once without discomfort in colder water. Not what they're made for, but a workable solution for surf and cold water trout fishing. Nine stars!
