CRESSI Water Shoes - Adult Unisex Shoes for All Types of Water Sports Activities

Really nice pair of beach swim shoes but from only 6 months since i purchase, it has deteriorated badly. However, the other pair i bought at the same time, for my husband still look new, worn for the same purpose.The clear colour is now yellowish, has several splits along the side of the shoes, plus Cressi label has pealed off.I don't think I will be buying it again even if my husband's pair is still okay.Good grip, slip resistance, fit okay but quality of plastic is poor!

Bought these to use on holiday as the beach was rocky and were really helpful for getting in and out of the water. Comfortable to wear and stay on your feet while swimming. A little on the long side- I ordered a Uk9 but the size was more like UK10 , but width was fine. Maybe any smaller would have been too tight. Not very grippy - just use your common sense when stepping on submerged ricks and stones!

I don’t usually write reviews but I feel the need to tell everyone how good these water shoes are. I got the transparent ones size 5 U.K. . They are true to size . I’m currently using them on my holiday at Mauritius and they are absolutely perfect .They are not just super stylish but extremely practical. Very light in weight , easy to clean and the main thing : you can comfortably swim and get in an out of coral / pebbled beaches as if you were in bare feet . They are a holiday MUST .

The shoes sent to me are a different colour and size to those ordered. On the positive side they seem just about right for my intended use. Durable, flexible and comfortable. Time will put them to the test.

I have written this 6 months after purchase. I am a daily sea swimmer off a very stony beach where some foot protection is a must. They have turned out to be perfect. Like others who recommended buying a size smaller I did. Even in icy winter sea water where, believe me, everything shrinks! they remained a good fit. During the recent heatwave I did find them tight to get on but otherwise no problem. I have never felt that they would ever come off while swimming. After almost daily use for 6 months they are as soft and supple as the day I bought them with no signs of rips or tears. Note: as with all products like these I never leave them in the sun as sunlight seems to affect the 'plastic'. Traditional aqua shoes made of wet suit fabrics are awful in turbulent seas for filling with sand which grinds away at your feet. The design of these with perforations all over the upper surfaces seem to self clean. Just the odd piece of seaweed. The best part is that after use they only need a quick rinse under the hot tap, wipe dry and they are ready for use. Aqua / wet suit shoes require a lot of flushing with clean water after use and then take for ever to dry, sometimes still damp the next day and at worst start to smell. I would highly recommend these for anybody who needs to cross surfaces which are not barefoot friendly to get into the water. My only observation is the soles are quite thin. This is ideal as it makes the shoes very light and I forget I have them on when swimming but possibly they would not be ideal to walk long distances. If these ever need to be replaced I would automatically buy another pair.

As i hoped…soft rubber/plastic..sizing is perfect…

I always use a size 4 (bang on) but the size four in this swimming shoes is a size 3 so be careful when you buy those…

Bought these for upcoming holiday knowing that the beach is rocky, and I hate the "wobbly walk" to the sea trying not to hurt your feet! They are really sturdy and feel like good quality, they fit perfectly, I'm an 8 and I ordered an 8. They seem to have good grip too. The only slight niggle I have is that they do feel a bit "sharp" round the top part of the shoe. I'm going to wear them in the house with socks to try and get them smoothed off, other than that they are really comfortable. I think they will be great for avoiding hot sand/shingle etc. Update on this, my daughter has pinched them and she loves them (she's 13).
