Great water aerobics shoe! They are so popular that my size was not available. However, Zappos takes your request and lets you know when it's available. Good job!

This is a great water shoe. It is true to size and very comfortable. The only issue I have, and it is very small, is that the laces have turned a funny color from the pool and shower water. But I would still rate it 5 stars. I also love the colors!

I do water aerobics and my feet would ache from the pounding they would take on the concrete bottom. These shoes are great. No more sore feet. The size of the shoe is correct. I will buy these again. Maybe soon so I'll have them before they discontinue them.

At first I was skeptical - will these fit? These shoes do fit wonderfully and appear to be true to size and not as wide as the others I tried. I hope to get these wet very soon.

A great shoe for water running. As an avid runner, sidelined by an injury, I found I was able to do pool running pain free to keep in running shape. These shoes are light and protective and feel like a well cushioned running shoe but with no drag because of the mesh tops and perforated bottom. Love them!

These shoes are good looking and light weight so most people would find them a really good choice for water aerobics. Since I have neuromas, bunions and bunionettes I have to make sure my shoes are wide enough and these didn't give me enough room. They would be nice to protect your feet from impact if you do cross country or jacks on the bottom of the pool or similar moves. I had to send these back and I'm pleased with the Teva Churn Evo shoe I got instead and it was on sale. Thank goodness for Zappos. We had our biggest department store leave town and don't have many options so I appreciate Zappos having choices that can accommodate my interests and my feet!

These are amazing for water aerobics also use in aqualogix water class and there's no slipping or sliding around. I have wide feet and usually all tennis shoes give me blisters on my toes but these didn't.

These are some of the most comfortable workout shoes I've owned. They are light weight, they fit was exact to my normal size, and they looked even cuter on my feet than I anticipated!

I injured the ball of my foot exercising in the pool and my doctor told me to use water shoes in the pool. I ordered the Ryka Hydro Sport and have been very pleased. They fit well and are extremely comfortable when exercising in the pool. I am so happy with them and of course, Zappos did a super job with their service.

I love these shoes! Finally, a pair that fits, is adjustable to my narrower feet, are comfortable, and perfect for a water workout or walking in the surf.

Very cute water shoe. Loved the style. I ended up going with the Keen water shoe, as I felt the durability and the arch support for my needs were better. For pool use, like water aerobics, I think these would be great. They were slightly on the roomy side, if you are in between sizes. If I were to keep them, I would have went down half a size.

I really wanted these to fit better but they were too long and there was a disconnect between the firmness of the sole and the flimsiness of the top.

I like the way these water shoes look and the sole is sturdy but with good drainage for walking in the surf. However, I have to add an extra orthotic as they really don't have much support, especially at the ball of the foot- they are very flexible. It's a little better with the orthotic. I think it's just hard to find shoes for walking in the ocean that have that level of support that don't take in/hold a lot of water. These are the best out there, right now.

I bought these to wear for water aerobics and hydro-spin class and they work great. I love the support and comfort. However, the button-toggle lacing closure doesn't remain secure. You do still need to tie the shoes to ensure they stay on your feet.

Really cute, but surprisingly they are too wide and hurts where they break. Will try the next size down.

Very comfortable shoes! I used them for a long hike through a stream bed. Shoes were perfect for hiking in the stream. The tread was great for the gravelly stream, and water wasn't trapped in the shoes so they dried out quickly. The shoes did not provide a lot of support tho when hiking on the rocky trail to get to the stream.

They have more cushion than most water shoes. I'd still enjoy a little more. I definitely have less knee & foot pain when walking & jumping in the pool for two hours!

Love the support and cushion of these shoes for aqua aerobics and Tabata! The design with the drainage holes makes them lightweight even in water, and helps with drying them in between workouts! Bought a pair for my sister, too! Only reason for not giving 5 stars is the problem with laces coming untied in the pool even with double knotting! Please go back to the bungee style from a few years ago!! These long ties don't stay tied!

They feel slightly different from the last pair that was showing wear. Likes the turquoise, but these are fine.

I have bad feet but I do like doing outdoors activities and I've always struggled with finding a water shoe with support. These are the best I've found so far BUT I would like a higher arch support inset - I know it's a water shoe and you need the inset that will drain & dry easily. It would be great if you offered a higher arch support option that fits in the shoe for an additional charge for those who need it.... make it optional at check out and just put them in the box separately. The customer can use them or not.
