Second the Columbia shoe, I'm using the Megavent and they've been great.

Sperry has a similar shoe but the Columbia was on sale when I got them. Currently on sale at the Columbia web site.

I bought some fake Boost Yeezys on Amazon for $15 and they are light when dry and just as light when wet. They also dry out so fast, when I get back to the ramp and slip em on theyre dry as a bone. Their also comfy and I dont wear socks with them. Heres a link on Amazon.

I take them off when driving home because wet feet are annoying in a shoe on a long drive. Maybe I will check out the Drainmakers that everyone has been suggesting. They are comfortable and lightweight when dry though.


Agree 100%. Nothing worse than pebbles and shells constantly finding their way in to these shoes. Thought I was going high end with a water shoe and was completely wrong.

Academy Brand Water Shoes.

Bought them a few years ago because, #1 not black so feet aren't 5000k in July in Texas, and #2 partial felt on soles and wire mesh in the drainage holes so pebbles and debris don't migrate in. Drain water super fast, dry fast, and good wet traction. Look like tennis shoes and are quite comfortable to wear. I think they may be discontinued unfortunately.
