The Racqua Water Shoes for men and women have a breathable mesh upper that fully covers your feet, giving you the protection of a sneaker while allowing for comfortable airflow. You’ll also find a durable rubber outsole that’s lightweight but provides plenty of traction (including on all five toes) and a comfortable grip. Several small drainage holes ensure that excess water escapes the shoes while still protecting your feet. The shoes have a slip-on design that offers a secure fit and makes them easy to take on and off while you’re on the go (a must if you’re one to take frequent dips in the ocean throughout a day at the beach).
They’re available in 12 color combinations, including basic black and navy, as well as bolder options like bright blue and orange. The water shoes have unisex sizing, ranging from women’s 5.5/men’s 4.5 to women’s 16/men’s 15.

Wearers also compliment how comfortable the shoes feel, which is key if you’ll be wearing them for long periods of time while swimming, tidepooling, boating, and doing other outdoor activities. One buyer who went up two sizes for extra room said they’re “perfect for walking. The best shoe for us seniors who hate to have our toes smashed.” A final shopper noted that “they are quick to dry and easy to pack,” meaning you won’t have to worry about uncomfortably traipsing around in soggy footwear for the rest of the day after your water activity.
