5 FamDocD
[ I hike and walk my dog in the woods and I walk through rivers and streams a lot. I need shoes that: 1) Are supportive enough to actually hike in-- and 2) I can walk through and INTO muddy, rocky rivers and streams in( usually chasing my dog)-- and 3) Then keep hiking-- and 4) Have them dry overnight or faster so I can wear them again. It has been SOOO difficult to find these. `` Water Sandals '' are not supportive enough to hike in and THEY HURT, and are so open that all sorts of rocks and stones get into them and under your feet, and those rigid straps give me blisters. Standard `` waterproof '' shoes still let water in at the top if you actually submerge your feet-- and I do-- and get soaked from the inside out. And then take DAYS to dry. These shoes are closed with mesh( no rocks and stones getting in) and are MEANT TO GET WET and then dry quickly. And they actually are soft, and do n't give me blisters even without socks and everything gives me blisters!! WHY were these so hard to find? I would give 10 stars if I could, and have SERIOUSLY tried and tried to find shoes like these. You wo n't find them anywhere else( which I do n't understand).

5 Tommi
I purchased these shoes in early Feb and have just worn them now. I am impressed with the comfort and support they offer. We go on cruises and I prefer `` water '' shoes over sandals. The style is great and I will also wear them for low impact workouts. The fact that they are water proof and dry quickly is a bonus. I wash all my work- out shoes and air dry them. They come out looking like new. I am very satisfied with this purchase.

5 onivan
Bought for my niece to replace the same par which had worn out. Initially they felt rather uncomfortable comparing to the old ones, but lately she told me that the new once are as well excellent and her feet are comfy and cool in the hot sunny walks.

5 mona
[ Very comfortable to walk in and its color shades do not allow it to withstand dirt.

5 Amanda
[ I love these shoes! I had the original Drainmakers and these are my second pair. They really make packing for adventures easy because I don ’ t have to think about hiking and water shoes as two separate things. They ’ re comfortable and have great traction! I recommend these to everybody.

I love my uneeks-- super comfortable always sharp looking-- I even wear socks in the winter time-- I have four pair and wear them all the time-- good when wet also-- I bought my first pair for vacation and must say my feet never got tired even with all day sight seeing-- I highly recommend them and feel they are a super value.

My very picky almost- 5- year- old will actually wear these!!! They are easy for him to get on and off himself and he never complains while wearing them( translated: they are very comfortable). I love the extra toe protection l, since that's where most of our shoes wear the most. I like these shoes so much that I ordered another pair for my 7- year- old( different color, of course 😉). Hooray for no PFAS!!!

I bought these sandals for a trip to Disney. I needed a sandal that was comfortable, waterproof, could wear with anything and was easy to clean after a day in the parks. This sandal was more comfortable than my sneakers, and the versatility and easy of washing was exactly what I needed. Next time, this is the only shoe I will need to pack… well, I ’ ll probably pack two of these in two different colors! You will LOVE these sandals!

These are so cute. They look like woven shoes and are very comfortable. I wear a 7. 5 and had to get the 8 which is just slightly big.

5 Lnewsom
[ We love these shoes and I have been buying Keens for my kids each spring ever since they started walking. They hold up so well and the kids outgrow the shoes FAR before the shoes are worn out. They are perfect for every outdoor activity and I never worry about the keens getting ruined, but they still look cute enough to wear to school, too! Highly recommmend these and we will keep buying them until my kids grow out of them.

5 BrittanyTodd
[ This is my son's 4th pair of the same shoes. They are great for summer. The velcro works all summer long, even if they get wet a lot. They do n't stink, either, which is nice. They run a little small, so size up if you are unsure.

5 Kim11
[ I ’ ve bought these every summer for my kids and love them! They ’ re durable yet comfortable and my girls love all the color options. I like the Seacamp style for their narrow feet- they fit really well!

5 The Duke
[ Great sandals, great fit, great craftsmanship. My kids never take them off. I have been buying these for the last 10 years and I ’ ve never been disappointed. Thanks Keen!

Tried ordering these shoes directly from Oncloud. They ended up sending me a completely different shoe in size 9. I had to jump through hoops sending them pictures, taking them to the drop off location they chose because they wouldn ’ t refund until they got the shoes back. It took over 2 weeks before they even issues my refund. Once I got the money back I came straight to Dicks to get the shoes I originally ordered. Will always only order through Dicks from now on no matter the brand but especially for Onclouds. Received my shoes in 2 days!!

[ Bought boots for some felt restricted areas in New England. Great ankle support and sure- footed, Simms hit these boots out of the park! Paired with crampon blades for ocean surfcasting allows me one boot for my pursuits.

5 Jackleg
Great boots for hiking and wading. You no longer have to choose between lightweight and a proper wading boot. Vibram bottom sticks well to river stones well!

5 Psmall
[ The lightest wading boots I have ever worn and probably the most durable. They are great for trekking to fishing spots because they are light and don ’ t feel like you ’ re dragging your feet along. You won ’ t be disappointed with these. Also size up one size

5 MacDiesel
[ I bought these when my old boots finally fell apart. I actually bought a number of different boots to try them on and these topped the bunch in terms of fit and weight. So I returned the others and the next test was how these operated in use and the passed with flying colors. I picked a 2. 5mile hike in that had varied terrain from gravel to lots of rocks to a fair bit of scrambling to get to the good holes. These performed very well. The soles are stiff enough to support walking across the rocky bottom and not risk an ankle but supple enough to feel the terrain and grippy enough to feel secure and not slip. I noticed the weight( or lack thereof) after 7 hours of hiking, fishing, exploring- my legs and feet felt great. They shed mud and silt very well and finally they dried quickly. I 'm very happy with this purchase and would recommend this boot to anyone looking.

I ’ d been eyeing these for awhile and finally gave them a try. They are comfortable even though they are platform and I like the adjustable strap around the ankle. If you ’ ve worn other Reef sandals, these run true to your Reef size. I ’ m usually a 7. 5 in Nike and most other shoes and have to go down 1/2 a size in Reef sandals.

Frequently Asked Questions For Lightweight Water Shoes

Lightweight water shoes are specifically designed for activities that involve water, such as kayaking, paddleboarding, or beach outings. They provide traction and support while allowing for quick drainage and drying. These shoes are ideal for both casual wear and more active pursuits, ensuring comfort and stability in wet environments.

Lightweight water shoes are often made from quick-drying materials such as synthetic fabrics, rubber, and mesh. These materials help to enhance breathability and water drainage, making them suitable for wet conditions. Additionally, many designs incorporate non-slip soles for better grip on slippery surfaces.

Lightweight water shoes differ from regular athletic shoes primarily in their construction and purpose. They are designed to be more water-resistant and feature drainage systems to prevent water accumulation. In contrast, regular athletic shoes are typically made for dry conditions and may not provide the same level of comfort or performance in wet environments.

Yes, lightweight water shoes are available for all ages, including adults and children. They come in various styles and sizes to accommodate different foot shapes and preferences. Many brands also offer features tailored to specific age groups, ensuring comfort and safety for everyone.

While lightweight water shoes are primarily designed for water-related activities, they can also be suitable for light hiking or outdoor activities, especially in wet or muddy conditions. Their lightweight nature and grip can provide comfort and stability on varied terrain. However, for more rugged hiking, dedicated hiking shoes may offer better support and protection.
