Water shoes

On this page you will find the best water shoes on the market, that cover all the needs you may have. Water shoes are almost indispensable in a wide range of water sports activities. From kayaking and SUP to snorkeling, they provide the comfort and features you need. And they are incredibly versatile.

In many ways, you can think of them as a hybrid between sports shoes and bathing shoes. You see - they are also suitable for a walk by the beach or if you are going swimming. Water shoes make it more flexible not to have to take them on and off all the time after being in the water.

Water shoes are amazing

The whole idea of water shoes is that they should be comfortable to wear, be non-slip and provide protection against sharp objects. But one of their most important functions is that they must be able to dry quickly when you get out of the water. Water shoes or wet shoes are also much safer to wear than, for example, bathing sandals or flip-flops, but they carry some of the same characteristics and benefits..

It must be easy to get in and out of the water, without having to think about whether you risk stumbling in your shoes, or whether they provide the right protection. This is particularly true when you are by the sea, where many dangers lie and hide in the sandy bottom. Regardless of whether it's weevers, fish hooks or sharp clam shells.

This mean that the best properties of water shoes are just this - that they protect, are easy to put on and take off, and that you avoid stepping on hot sand. Every summer there are stories in the news about children and others stepping on a disposable grill that has been buried in the sand.

With a pair of water shoes you don't have to worry about that, and can enjoy that they are just as easy to put on and take off as flip flops.

Water shoes give great comfort and dries quickly

The most important part, is that the swimwear you wear does not hinder your movement. In the same way, they should not be uncomfortable to wear either, because if you constantly want to take them off, then what is the point?

You can therefore also experience that you "slip" in bathing sandals as soon as they get wet, while bathing shoes can seem heavy as soon as you get out of the water.

It all goes a lot more smoothly when you move from water to land, with a pair of water shoes on. They don't become heavy with water, as their function is to direct it away quickly. They also do not absorb water, and therefore feel like wearing a regular shoe when you are on land.

At the same time, they are quite flexible, and generally follow the shape of the foot in such a way, that you don't experience any discomfort when wearing them. Another great feature is that they keep the feet warm, precisely because the water is quickly drained. Therefore, water shoes are also perfect for all types of water sports, regardless of whether it is at hobby level or professionally.

So when can you use water shoes? Well, let's list some of the activities:

• Watersports
• Kayaking or other paddelsport activities
• On boats, since they're non-slip
• Hikes in wet terrain, as in near creeks, the beach or lakes
• Water aerobics to get a better foothold on the bottom

Who can use water shoes?

Water shoes are suitable for pretty much all ages, but there are some groups that benefit from them more than others. This applies, for example, to children, the elderly or those with walking difficulties.

Since they are non-slip, dry quickly and work just as well on land as in water, they are a huge advantage for people with different challenges.

Children play, splash and swim around all the time, without thinking about hot sand, sharp or slippery rocks. As parents, you can sit back and enjoy the sight of children playing - without worrying about accidents - if your child is wearing water shoes or wet shoes. And since they have a great transition from wet to dry, few children will even think about that they are wearing them.

If you are a slightly more challenged with balance or have difficulty walking in general, a slippery rock can quickly turn into an accident. It can also happen with wet tiles by the pool, for instance if you do water aerobics. With a pair of water shoes or aqua shoes, you can put all those worries aside.

They make sure that you do not slip or fall on slippery surfaces. And since they quickly drain the water as soon as you get out of the pool, they therefore provide the same safety on the wet tiles around the pool.

How do i take care of my water shoes?

Water shoes are kind of like bathing shoes when it comes to taking care of them. They are not happy to be hung out to dry in the sunlight, nor are they happy to be "wicked" dry. However, it isn't necessary either, as they dry quite quickly by themselves. However, you still need to remember to rinse them after they have been in salt or chlorine water, as this extends their life.

Besides that, they just have to be hung up in the shade, and then they dry before you know it!
