Great adventure shoes :) I bought a pair for myself and my partner before a vacation to Sardinia. The vacation was excellent and the shoes honestly helped us have a fantastic time. Specifically, we took a kayak from beach to beach and were wearing our tropic feel shoes on the kayak which helped protect our feet when getting off the kayak to stand on sharp underwater rocks. The only downside for my pair was that on the right shoe, one of the lace stoppers popped off, when I tried them on for the first time. I think an improvement can be made there, cos now I have 3 of 4 lace stoppers, and often need to re-adjust the fourth one which is annoying. Oh, and I bought a pair of the flip flops, which stayed at home because I did not find them comfortable between the toes, unfortunately :(
