A friend of mine recommended these to me for water aerobics. When I saw her with them, I was a little skeptical because they looked like they would be heavy after getting them wet. However, the design of this shoe is remarkable.
I have been using the regular (cheaper) water walking shoes and they give no support and only last a few months with 5 days of aerobics each week. I feel like I'm walking on a cloud in the pool with these. My ankles and arches have so much more support and I haven't had any issues with my plantar fasciitis since I've been wearing them.
The dry time is about the same as it is with other water shoes I've tried, typically overnight. I really like the new design of the laces. They have a spring clamp to adjust them on your foot and I still have enough slack to tie the laces. The ones my friend has, the laces are too long and it is a bit of an inconvenience for her. It sounds like there were some complaints and this issue has been addressed. I'm a size 7.5 in most shoes and these are a perfect fit at 7.5.
I know the price is bit more expensive than the other ones I have tried but if I'm having to replace those every 2-3 months and can get at least 6 months out of these, it will be worth the difference. My friend says she's had hers for more than 2 years so I think this is the better purchase, overall.
I think a good review should include likes and dislikes, however, at this time, I haven't found any dislikes. If that changes, I will update this review.
