Ankle-high booties are great for all watersports.
This ankle-high bootie is perfect for any watersport. The sole wraps around the upper, adding protection to the side of the foot. A 2 mm plastic midsole shim provides solid protection from sharp rocks and sticks. 3 mm neoprene uppers, with glued and stitched seams, will your little piggies warm and cozy. The extra-wide instep strap and drawcord ensure that these booties stay put. (Available in men's whole sizes only, 4-13).
Note: Women order one size smaller. Half sizes order next size up.

Great Performance, Amazing Value
I used these booties for river boating, sea kayaking, boating, mangrove hikes, and windsurfing both throughout Asia and the United States. The sizing worked fine for me, though others recommend a 1/2 size down. I guess it depends on your foot length. They strap on very well, with an excellent sole that has ridges for good traction. Although sand and particulate matter can get stuck in the shoe, most of the job is done by tightening the back string (which can get a bit annoying, but you could always trim it or knot it again, or, as my friend and I did, tuck it into the shoe).

Great Value Booties
First the negatives - they do run 1/2 size too small. The other negative is that they drain (ie they retain water) Now the positives: Great value Very very well made (all NRS items I have seen are) Comfortable and do what they are meant to do - keep your feet warm

Kickers booties are great.
I needed a water shoe that would stay secure on my feet have a thick pad for walking on coral rock and be comfortable. These meet all my expectations. Very comfortable, the Velcro strap keeps them secure and water tight and they are very durable.

Good Quality. Fits small.
No half sizes, thought a 9 would fit better, way too small. Have to return. Will order the size 10.

Like a glove!
This is a great shoe for kayaking or any other water sport. It fits well and it is very comfortable. The front of the shoe has a reinforcement that comes in handy if you are planning on doing white water rafting because it will hold you feel very well against the bottom of the boat.
