By td from Leadville, Co on 5/24/2008
Sizing:
Feels half size too small
Pros:
Good Ventilation, Lightweight, Padding Dries Quickly
Best Uses:
Boating, Water Sports
Describe Yourself:
Aggressive Rider
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Even though the booties feel a bit small, there is enough stretch to use. I kayak creeks regularly and need to portage/ scout rapids regularly. These booties have pretty good grip on slick rocks and are not bulky in my kayak. Even though they look like standard issue for the starship enterprise, they are quite functional.
Best footwear for kayaking

Sizing:
Feels full size too small
Pros:
Comfortable, Good Traction, Good Ventilation, Padding Dries Quickly, Protective sole
Best Uses:
Creeking, Playboating, Water Sports
Describe Yourself:
Aggressive Rider
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I am an avid whitewater kayaker (both creeking and playboating) and have found that of all the booties I ever tried that these are the most comfortable, protective and durable. The sole protects your feet when walking on sharp rocks almost as good as a pair of shoes. The traction is really good and the water drains quickly out of the bottom of the bootie. My normal shoe size is about a 9 mens but I ordered these in a 10.5 and they fit just about perfect. Overall, they are a durable, comfortable and well designed water shoe.
