starbay Women's Slip-On Water Shoes with Easy Strap

The lining comes out too easily. Bought new liners which so far are staying in place. I use these shoes when I ride my bike. They fit my budget and they care great shoes to walk in. I need shoes that care truly flat with no heel and these work for me.

NEW UPDATE IN 2017 (2 YEARS LATER)I've had these over 2 years now. The company did such a disservice on this product by simply using the wrong glue. Here's my advice:Buy the shoes-knowing it will take a few extra dollars and a little work to make them the best, longest lasting water shoes ever.First soak the shoes overnight in water. The insoles will come out. They did not use water-proof glue (how stupid).Remove the insoles and let everything dry completely.Coat the insoles liberally with clear Shoe Goo. Clamp it all tightly together (or just put under something really, really heavy. Let them sit for as long as possible-at least overnight. Let them sit for a couple weeks longer if you can to fully cure. (I have no ideal how long it will take since it was a couple months until I needed them.BAM! They are now 5 star shoes!Seriously, I've put them thru the wringer-salt water, clear water, chlorinated water...walking for hours on sandy beaches, rocky shores, shores full of sharp shells, and hot asphalt parking lots. They fit perfectly since you can use the tie to snug them up and they are very comfortable.I've yet to find another pair that looks good, feels good, protects my feet, stays on while swimming, and doesn't fall apart....let me know if you have because with the new glue-they're perfect.SIZE 9B (M) I have weird feet-I always need extra wide or it's feels like my toes are smooshed together. If it wasn't for my fat, weird feet, I'd probably wear a woman's 8 1/2 gym shoe. These were perfect in size since the mesh stretches and the tie allows you whatever snugness you need.************UPDATE********************As noted in my original review below, the soles immediately came off and I was so disappointed! I cleaned them very well (sand and old glue residue). I let them dry completely. I used Shoe Goo, Clear (available on Amazon for $6) and followed directions to reattach my insoles. I let them sit for months (it was the end of Fall). This last week, I dug them out and decided to give them a try. It was a week of my out-of-town relatives visiting, so the got used every day for hours on end, in fresh and salt water, thru deep sand,over rocks, and across parking lots. I abused them. They held up thru it all and I'm now in love with these shoes!! The only problem I had was on one shoe the little material that covers the sole has peeled a little by my toes, but that's no biggie at all...I'll probably just end up tearing it off.Why the manufacturer does not use water proof glue, I have no ideal. It seems like it would be a no-brainer to me...otherwise these would be 5 star shoes!!! smdh As it is, they will not earn any extra stars-2 is the best they will get from me. $12 for the shoes, $6 for the glue. I would have gladly paid $18 for these if they would have used the right glue in the beginning!Anyway, I'm sure you can find better shoes, but I am now in love with mine!PROS-They look great!They fit great! (I ordered size 9 B-I have wide width feet and vary between 8 1/2 wide and 9 wide depending on the shoe and these fit perfect.They are a little loose, but the little pull tab in the bag snugs them up perfectly.)They stayed on my feet perfectly when swimming in the ocean.They protected my feet from rocks/shells/etc and I had great traction with them.CONS-I got in the water and had to get right back out for something (3 minutes tops I was in the water). Immediately the insoles glue dissolved and the insole began bunching up. All day long I dealt with them bunching up and having to put them back in place. UGH.These five star shoes went to two stars because of this HUGE FLAW.The manufacture is completely aware these will be in the water, so why would they not use water proof glue?!! Or better yet, just make the soles rubber thicker/more comfortable in order to eliminate the need for the soles at all??This is such a huge deal because they could be the best ever water shoes! I will not return these-I really like them. Instead, I will find my own water-proof glue and fix the manufacturers mistake. I'm leaning toward Shoe Goo (Supposedly waterproof, so if the shoe is immersed in water, the glue will not dissolve and release the insole. It is supposed to dry to a waterproof, flexible rubber, so it will repair waders and boots without breaking or cracking.) or Barge All Purpose Rubber Cement (Also supposedly waterproof, so that direct contact with water or excessive amounts of moisture will not cause insoles to become loose and it claims to be long-lasting.) ***Note-Some reviewers say that they have changed the formula and to stay away from the kind that is "toluene free" (that it's as bad as Elmer's brand) and to get the original formula in the yellow/red can-not the blue tube.I will try to remember to post an update as soon as I can do it and test it. If I haven't in a few weeks-comment/ask a question of me ;)

Fit my wide foot. Cute on.

The shoes fit and are a comfortable to wear in the pool.

Had to sew the metal loop in place. The ribbon across the foot goes thru that loop. It turns sideways unless it is sewed in place.Normally wear a 7 1/2 & these are a 7: they fit!

Full disclosure... I haven't worn these out of the house yet, but I tried them on and they fit like a dream! I needed water shoes with a sturdy sole for cave tubing, and I think these will be just perfect. I normally wear 9.5 wide, but these didn't come in half sizes, so I ordered a 10 wide. The length and width are perfect, and the little drawstring tightener around the ankle will be perfect if my wet feet want to slip out of them. But to be honest, they didn't feel loose enough to slip off. They were snug without being uncomfortable or too tight. The sole seems very sturdy. Can't wait to get them in the water and really try them out!

I am buying these water shoes for my granddaughter because we are going to the ocean in the summer. Great Price and quality.

I have so much trouble finding shoes that fit. These were just as described. Actually many reviews mentioned that they ran big, which is why I decided to get them, hoping they could fit my wide feet. And they did! Really comfortable.

It arrived with some pellets from manufacturing inside and took some fiddling to remove - no big deal but then, after a few uses, the insoles kept slipping to the point of becoming bent inside the shoe, making it very uncomfortable to use. They need better glue for underwater use.
