Water shoes

[kezza]

Decided today that I would get myself some water shoes. Having been caught before at some of the islands with the coral and reading this board I thought maybe it's time to start wearing them.

 

OMG they are ugly:D .

 

I had a choice of dark blue or an ugly black pair. Why don't they make them in nice bold colours. (I see the kids ones are in nice colours but I don't believe my feet will fit into them!!:p )

 

Has anyone out there found a nice coloured pair?

What about some trendy plastic thongs?

[kezza]

I thought of them acdc and have used them in the past but i found them hard to swim in. lol

Why not just do what i do, take some nice Dunlop Volleys :D

 

you can even swim with them and best of all they are like $20 at a department store :cool:

Thanks for that suggestion about the dunlop volleys, I think I will get myself a pair of those instead. I will get more use out of them too.

Ok, what are "dunlop volleys?"

[aussiedisneyfan]

The old fashioned white canvas sandshoes with the flat white sole and the green stripe/trim.

 

They are $30 at Target.

although you can get them with a nice blue stripe or even bright green ones with a yellow trim.

[aussiedisneyfan]

Yes, and Target had pretty pink edged ones too.

Well I'm going to have to have a good look, can't say I've seen them but I do know what your're talking about. lol

for those who dont know the joys of owning a pair of volleys,

Yay! I found a nice unused pair of reef shoes at the local Lifeline shop for $1!:D

A lot of people are using those 'croc' plastic clog shaped shoes. I use them for working in wet areas etc. so I imagine they would be ok for the beach etc. I saw a few people wearing them on our cruise, bright pink, purple, blue, red etc. but they seem to be popping up everywhere now in Go Lo, Sports stores and shoe shops etc. The proper Croc ones are about $50 but the cheapies at Go Lo etc are about $6 - $10.
