Aleader Women's Xdrain Classic Knit Water Shoes WHITE/LIGHT GRAY/KNIT / 6 US Reviews

4.6 Rating 286 Reviews
So I'll start by saying the style of these shoes compared to other water shoes is why I purchased these, they look really cute on and its hard to tell they are even water shoes. I am normally between a size 9 and 91/2 and went with the 9 based on reviews. I'm glad I did, they were a tad big and I was worried they might slip off in water, but they actually fit more snug once in water so that was great. I would definitely pick your actual shoe size or size down if you are in between. The only downside to these is if you are wearing them on a hike to get to water, I did this and got multiple rocks, sticks, etc. in them which was a bit uncomfortable. They definitely serve their purpose once in the water though, I would say these are better suited for paved water parks or for being on a boat, as long as you don't have to hike to get to water because the holes throughout do let the elements in. Overall I would purchase again, they are very comfortable, light, and are great water shoes.

We were going on a canoe and kayak trip and I was skeptical about getting water shoes since I have always remember them as weighing you down and pulling offf your foot along with the inner sole. Well, I was so so happy I had these on my feet when I hit a surprise large rock and got pinned by the current against the rock. My arm and hand was stuck under the kayak by the ore and my body was still stuck stuck inside the kayak while it was filling with water putting weight on my arm under it.Once I was able to get my self out the kayak, and then drag everything away. The shoes not only perfectly stayed on my feet, but it gave me a great grip against the rocks while I pull the filled kayak and ore to the shore. Not once was it hard to move through the water and it made it easy to walk on uneven rocks and in muddy areas. No mud got into my shoes or small rocks. I didn't even have the laces pulled tight. I kepted them loose.The soles are soft enough to be comfortable to walk in all day, and the best part was they look just like athletic shoes. I wore them all over. They also quickly dried by the fire, so they were ready to go the next day and I didn't have wet shoes to start out in.I was so thankful I had these. They worked well on the street, water and walking in the woods. I had absolutely no problems with them. They are well made and very comfortable.

I love these shoes. They worked great for walking around Vegas for ~10K steps/day as a casual sneaker and I never got any blisters considering they were brand new and not broken into yet. I then took these with me to Maui as hiking/water/beach shoes and they worked out fantastic! I even wore these to the gym and they are great for floor exercises and allows your feet to breath due to all the holes underneath the shoes.They are not as quick drying as I had hoped however they served my purpose very well but if you plan on getting in the water with them, definitely bring a change of shoes/sandals with you. Other than that, the only complaint was that the tongue moves around quite frequently. Since these shoes are no-tie's (slip-on's), it would be nice that they were designed so that the tongue stayed in place.I wear size 7 normally and bought size 7's because reviews said they were true to size. However the pair I got hit my toes in the front too much but I was able to easily exchange them for a size 7.5 and those worked out perfectly.

I'll be giving this four stars because it was almost what I expected. I really am a fan of the arch support and the style of the shoe. The width of this shoe is great. If you have thin feet I wouldn't suggest buying it. I'm a lifeguard/swim instructor so in case of an emergency I'm going to need to be able to run in these. However, I usually am a 7/7.5 wide, all depending on the shoe, and I have about an inch of toe room which I am not comfortably a fan of. Wearing a thick sock isn't ideal for me. If I am running to jump in the pool to rescue someone, I'm afraid my shoe might slip off. I'm probably going to buy a size smaller, or go with another brand that has tightening straps. Hope this helps y'all.

I just got these shoes in the mail and they are so cute!! They look really well made and are really comfortable. The only problem is that they are too big. I always wear an eight and I ordered an eight but I really need a 7 1/2. If they stretch out in the water at all I would need a 7. I’m leaving for Mexico in two days and there isn’t time to to reorder. I’m so sad. Most reviews said they were true to size but this just isn’t the case. Also, the stretchy laces don’t allow you to tighten them and they are really stretchy so even if they were the right size, they might come off easily.

I get so many compliments on these! They're great for summer! They are surprisingly supportive and can get super muddy and then just rise them off. Great for hiking and going to the beach. You sort of have to break them in, they're a little stiff at first but I recommend going a size down. I usually wear women's 10N and I got the 9. There is a little label on the inside that will fall off within the first ten uses because it's not as stretchy as the surrounding material but I didn't like it anyway so I was sort of glad it did. I wore these ALL last summer and they're still holding up! My boyfriend loved them so much we got him a pair, he's a men's 10.5 and we got him the size 11.

I ordered a pair of 10s but were a little roomy, so I reordered for a 9 and although they were a bit snug on the bridge of my foot they didnt budge going through the mud and rocks at the lake. I couldnt imagine a better water shoe, seriously. This is SO entirely worth the extra twenty bucks from the ones you get at walmart or target... IF YOU'RE LOOKING TO DO ANYTHING ACTIVE OUTDOORS TOTALLY GET THESE. The bottoms are supportive but squishy like crocs almost. I'm in love.We walked across gravel and the littler rocks did get stuck in the bottom of the shoe, but it's not like you could feel them, I didn't even notice until I walked up to the marina on the concrete. Sooooo keeping these shoes until I wear them out. And then I'm getting another pair. I'm probably going to get another pair sooner than that, if we're being real honest. The blue with the lighter blue trim are super jazzy.

I bought these so that I'd have water shoes that had more of a "sole" in order that I could walk from pool to my apartment without drying off feet enough to change into some other shoes. I was concerned that they might not be wide enough, since I wear Easy Spirit 9.5 wide shoes. But they stretch perfectly. I bought size 9, and they seemed to slip a little at the heel when I first wore them, but they were fine in the water. The "shoestrings" are not adjustable, they have no "strings" only let the shoe expand enough to put your foot in. Quick drying they certainly are!
