Columbia Men's Supervent II Water Shoes

My second pair . My first lasted over 5 years in a swimming pool about 10 hours a week. Best thing , they make 1/2 sizes so you get a good fit .

Since retiring, I spend the majority of May - October boating and swimming. I need a good water shoe, that's comfortable but rugged. The lake we're on is in the west Texas desert - no sand, nothing but rocks. Between the heat (100+), being wet all the time, and hiking over rocks - some of them jagged - cheaper shoes break down quickly. These are good sturdy shoes and yet they are comfortable.
