You need to know this
More than anything you need to know is that the fitting chart doesn’t help. Read the many user questions right above this section and see that almost all of them ask questions about size. That means the person advertising these on this page isn’t doing a good enough job explaining his product and has never taken the time to read his customers’ questions and fix his ad.The next thing you need to know is that there are actually at least three different styles listed (I’m not talking about colors but actual different products) but they make it sound like they are all the same product. There is a low-cut style, an ankle height style and a bootie style. They probably all fit differently but they don’t tell you that.Next, know that these have a sole, which not all water shoes have. I have a pair of a similar style that is cut from one piece of neoprene and I love them in every way except one. Holes wore through the soles after only a few months of occasional use. That’s why I chose these to replace them.The concept is the same but hopefully the extra thickness of the sole will help them last a little longer. What is unusual is that there is a flat inner sole that is not glued in or attached in any way. It doesn’t look very durable or waterproof and I would guess it is meant to be disposable but nowhere do they tell you that. If you leave it in it sort of flops around when you walk.Going back to size, if it helps I normally wear a size US-9.5 shoe with normal socks. I ordered these in the totally confusing size of XXL(W:12-13,M:10-11)=EU43-44, which of course doesn’t make any sense at all. Here’s a hint – AFTER you add them to your cart they show you a different size scale which includes the Euro sizing. I converted mine to EUR 43-44 to calculate the correct US size. Adding to the confusion is their description of “Womens Summer Swim Shoes Men's Water Shoes Quick-Dry Aqua Socks”. All that is supposed to describe the same shoe. Which is it? Are they men’s or women’s or unisex and are they swim shoes or water shoes or aqua socks (not exactly the same thing)? My choice was a total guess. They are actually slightly too large and I wish I had ordered one size down.That’s way too much work a customer has to go through to order a simple product, and that makes me wonder how anyone could agree with that yet say they are a perfect five product. Doing that doesn’t help anybody, an accurate description is absolutely an important part of how good or bad a product is. For that reason I more accurately describe them as good but not great.

Sizing is off
I am so confused by all the "size up" comments here. I am a woman, I ignored those comments, followed the suggested size chart listed here, bought a Large as I wear a woman's 8. The shoes are at least an inch too big. They gap at the toe and the entire rear of my foot lifts. They would fall off in the water for swimming or water aerobics. The size chart on the bag is different and would have also had me size up, but in fact, I need to size down from the size chart listed here to a medium. They are cute, appear they would be comfy if fit right, and have decent traction on the bottoms while being lightweight. I will return and size down, hoping this does the trick for me. I will adjust my rating to a higher score if so. Shipping time was awesome as was packaging.

Great fit when you size up, neat design, and helpful customer service
I purchased these water shoes for a upcoming lake trip to wear on the boat and in potentially rocky waters. I range from a size 8 in flats, heels, and sandals, to an 8.5 in athletic shoes. I have a normal width foot with a high arch. After reading other reviews, I went ahead and ordered up with the 8.5-9.5 size range and they are actually a perfect fit. My large toe just reaches the end and it fits snugly around my ankle. I went with the 'outdoor jungle' design, but was worried it wouldn't arrive in time for my trip since it ships from overseas. I contacted L-RUN and they said they'd make sure they shipped right away so that they'd arrive before my trip. They arrived with a week to spare! I really appreciate their customer service. I went ahead and tested them out in the yard and our gravel road just walking around and they seem like pretty decent quality and should keep my feet protected from potential rocks and other objects while walking in a lake. Overall, I'd recommend this water shoe and the company - go a half size to one full size up in your range and they should fit.. (Note: I was not paid for this review)

Order size down-seriously
Reviewing for initial purchase. Just received these and haven't worn them to the beach yet (which is why I bought them) but so far these are great! I read other reviews and decided to order a size down and so glad I did. I wear women's 10 but ordered the L which is 8.5-9. They fit great, feels like socks! If I would have ordered the size it suggested I don't think they would stay on very well. Just hope they last me through my MX trip! Will update after vaca for condition and durability report!

Super Comfortable
These are awesome, they fit like a second skin but cushion your feet. I went to Mexico and walked on the beach and got in the water with them and they felt exactly how I wanted them to feel. Walked a short distance to my hotel but through streets and not once did they bother me. Can’t wait to use them on my trip to Bermuda.

My perfect water shoe!!
Better than I could have imagined! I wear these during any water sport! New place I used them was a mud run race and they was way better than any tennis shoes.. protected my feet and Helped my grip when climbing some of the obstacles. Also they stayed put didn’t fall off my feet, and the mud never sucked them off my feet like mud tends to do when it’s thick! The grip on these water shoes are amazing. The feel and quality is great!

Measure your foot & use the sizing guide!
They fit great. Given the mixed reviews of “size up or size down” I measured my feet and found by their sizing guide I was a size 9. So, that is what I ordered. They fit well and stay on without issue while walking in the lazy river or swimming in the main lap pool. I’m an avid swimmer, ex-competitor so this is very important to me.There is a slight bunch in the back but it doesn’t bother me. The first thing I did was pull out the insole. I’ve never had them stay in place with any shoe or sock that has them. I am sacrificing a little extra cushion but it’s not a problem. I find them comfortable without the insole.The tread Protects my feet from the rough cement in our lazy river while giving me a comfortable feel. I expect they will do well in the ocean during my vacation later this year.

Comfortable, and Seamed all round so the shoe insert doesn't move around
Will buy again, very good quality water shoes, water also doesn't get stuck inside. This is well suited for waterparks and general purpose water activity. Will not use as Reef Boots, as has fairly thin sole and will not protect your toes if you bump into a rock.
