I bought these shoes for a trip to the Galapagos Islands and they worked out perfectly. They were great for the wet landings on the islands: climbing out of the Zodiac boats and wading through shallow water onto the islands. Then, they provided the traction I needed for hiking across the lava rocks. And the open mesh provided lots of air to my feet in the warm climate. The manufacturer recommends wearing socks with these shoes. I found that very thin cotton socks do help keep your feet in good shape in the shoes on the hikes, but I usually put them on after getting onto dry land. And these shoes are very easy to slip on and off.

Purchased for Paria Canyon backpack adventure.\r\nLaces froze first day due to mud and water conditions. If not for the adjustable heel I would not have been able to get them off. Shoestring eyelets not compatable for regular replacement laces,if I had to cut them. Very, very frustrating. Still inoperable at this time. Will consider sending these back for evaluation.\r\nNot a happy camper with this purchase!

These shoes adjust around the heel making a complete and comfortable fit. No tying required. \r\nUnique selection of colors. I have yet to find any shoe better suited for the pickiest of people, my son.

Great shoes! These are my second pair. Wore out the first ones. Dry fast, great for in-and-out of the water and great for running.

These shoes make for great beach running shoes. Excellent drainage and they now run true to size. The heel can be collapsed down and then you can use them like slip-ons.

I bought these shoes for my son before a trip to Colorado. They were true to size. He wore them hiking throughout the Rocky Mountain National Park and said they were comfortable. Great shoe for hiking in the summer!

I just bought the shoes for my upcoming trip to Japan. One of our friends recommended the style for our vacation and we all bought the same shoes. The shoes are lightweight and truly adjust to all your possible needs in a trip. We walked miles and miles per day, under all types of weather including rain and everyday they were ready for the day's challenge. Our feet never got hurt and although brand new we did not require time to adjust to the new shoes.

The Salomon Techamphibian 2 is a great shoe, very comfortable and holds up well. I wear them as a casual every day shoe in the summer instead of sandals.

I love the idea of these shoes. Great concept, imperfect execution. The tread and the quick lace system are both great, the shoe itself is great and has a very hard toe, which I love. The thing that is terrible about this shoe is the adjustable straps in the rear. They constantly loosen up. They ALWAYS loosen up! When I was breaking my shoes in by walking around my office, I noticed the straps loosening. I returned them (great customer service by Zappos) and now have a new pair which seems to be having the same problem. I haven't been able to find a comparable shoe, so I think I'm just going to keep these and see if I can get creative with some glue or stitching to keep the straps in place. If it weren't for the loosening straps, this would definitely be a 5 star shoe for hikers, bikers, walkers, casual, etc.

These shoes are terrific. My son won't wear anything else...I have a pair too and they're great. They pamper your feet: cool, light, rugged and tough looking. Get them wet, play soccer in them, baseball, etc.; it doesn't matter. They can take it. If you like a shoe that appeals to your inner animal (and you don't need a lot of foot support), these are for you. A note about Zappos: terrific. The first pair had a problem with the lacing, and Zappos replaced them immediately with free shipping both ways. I can't believe how good these people are to their customers.

I\'ve been wearing these shoes for about a month, and they are great. They\'re very supportive, and have great cushioning in the foot bed. I use them for cross training and am very happy with them.

I absolutely love the shoes! I have always had foot problems due to overwork at an ealy age and had to wear custom made orthodics. However, my feet and spine feel great when I wear these around (even though should only wear during activity). In addition, Zappos did a great job delivering what I wanted.

Recommend - These shoeas are comfortable, and the width is true to size, unlike most athletic shoes. Lightweight, easy to move in, needed no breaking in. Ran in them without blisters the day I got them.

Wonderful fit, excellent quality shoe. I usually buy New Balance, but these fit better for running/walking. And Zappos is the best for customer service!

These are probably the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. I would not hesitate to purchase another pair. I felt they were true to size, width and support.

Great shoes. Awesome service. I'm a Canadian runner, and have been wearing this shoe for years. However, I have a tough time finding this size/fit in Canada. Zappos got everything right, with speedy (free!) shipping in the US. I will buy my next pair here!

The shoes I ordered came quickly, in 2 days. I was very surprised and pleased. This style is a good fit for me as I have a wide forefoot but narrow heel. They are very well-cushioned, so comfortable from the beginning.

These shoes are my favorite! I teach a very high-impact group fitness class. Even though these are running shoes, I wanted to try them because I kept getting shin splints. I won't lie; I initially bought them because I liked the way they looked. They are very well cushioned, and the first 2 weeks I was actually in a lot of pain (breaking in cushioning can be rough for me with any shoe), but after that they worked wonders. The great design of the shoes comes from the very soft mesh on the top of the foot, plus the very thick cushioning on the bottom which they've managed to keep very lightweight. They totally prevented my shin splints, until they wore out after 8 months. I purchased these again, and now I hope they never stop making these!

I buy these sneakers year after year, and they keep getting better! I have flat arches and these give me great support, while still being very comfortable. They run true to size, but I always buy my running shoes 1/2 a size larger (I was taught to do that to leave room for your feet when they swell up during your run). I own 3 pairs, in all different colors, and use 2 pairs for running and 1 pair for weekend wear. You will not be sorry you bought these!
