After this summer I have at various lakes (with sandy and rocky shore) tried ausgibig in Sweden the equator Mares diving socks, I'm thrilled. The shoe fits perfectly in size 7 (40), I usually have a shoe size of 40-41. By neoprene, the foot is also kept a little warm and with movement, the water warms up in the shoe on something. As long as one remains in ankle-deep water are not entirely the shoes also virtually waterproof. Moreover they wärem to in shallow water and sunshine. The stable sole makes it possible even convenient to go without so much as to take a small loss over stony paths and offers on slippery surfaces (such as stones, which are in the water) grip. Nevertheless, the sole is very flexible and adapts to the ground to well, so you also feel if you are on small or large rocks or sand. Only the bonding between the shoe sole and looks sometimes a bit rough, but keep it rock solid.
A tip for those who like to swim with flippers: The Mares Volo One Foot Fins for the holidays fit very well together with the equator diving shoes and comfortable footwear prevented one injury on the heel.
Conclusion: I am 100% convinced of this diving shoes and can only recommend buying.
