This product appealed to me because my previous water shoes disintergrated in the chlorinated heated pool I use. I knew I would not have the same problem with my new purchase. The only problem I had, which is a major one, is that the first time I wore them, my bunion was red and swelled which kept me out of the pool for three days. Tried them at home for just a few minutes thinking I could break them in but a blister formed on the heel area and also the red bunion got much worse. I assume I can''t return them because I had worn them the one time and the second pair I also purchased was so wide and I could not tighten the laces to even wear them. I was disappointed in both pairs of shoes. Now, i don''t know what to order next. I want a sneaker type comfortable shoe that won''t disintergrate in the pool and one that I can wear daily that do not hurt my feet. Other than that, I assume it is a very good shoe but the second pair is way too wide.  The company is great, shoe are well packaged and their shipping service is fantastic.  I just had problems with the two swimming shoes I purchased.

it is so comfortable, with or without socks. And my feet can still breath.

it is a slim fit, it looks just great on my feet.
