I know Al Agnew had posted this awhile back. He gave a heads up on a brand of water shoe that was on sale that was a good shoe....me being on the eternal lookout for the perfect water shoe for both keeping gravel out but also providing killer support and comfort especially if your are wading or hike up a watershed. I was skeptical but trusted Al's opinion on them and bought some. They are absolutely a phenomenal water shoe. I am giving a heads up because I bought myself another pair at Christmas for myself and both of the color scheme's are on sale. I already have a Black and Teal and I really don't care how they look....it's all about performance for me.....trust me on this Al was right these shoes rock if you entertain the thought of wading a stream.

Some may find them pricey but, I just letting people know you can get the Black ones for a cheaper price but, either way your feet will be happy and for my old creek wading posterior that is hugely important. they fit pretty true IMO opinion as well....if you are going with a sock you may want to size up accordingly.

I bought these already http://www.fiveten.com/us/outdoor/water/water-tennie-ocean-depths and just bought these http://www.fiveten.com/us/outdoor/water/water-tennie-black which were much higher in price the last time I was on 5 10.

I'm just saying Al was right these shoes are awesome at what they were designed for and the Blacks are on sale :)

     You mean like this Mr. Bigs?

 After Mrs. BilletHead and I made some rather long day hikes fly fishing and wet wading in Utah with standard wader shoes and neoprene wader socks our feet were beat at the end of the day. I remembered Al's post on these and last Fall we purchased a pair each on sale. When it gets warm this Spring through Summer they will be Jet boat shoes too as we wade in different places. I wear them now around the house getting used to them,

Exactly!!!!...I must admit they are some comfortable shoes....for me they keep the sand and rocks out while I hike up the river.....great water shoes

I tend to destroy cheap wading shoes/boots. I may have to get a pair of these guys;)!

How do they fit as for the listed size.  Do they run small or big or pretty much dead on.

I thought they fit pretty much spot on...I normally wear an 11 and they were perfect...I have a wide foot and they are not bad.

I wore them in a creek that was soo full of fine small rock and none got in those things....nothimg. They are very comfortable and have an ahletic feel

What about width. Do they run wide?

       They even come in half sizes. Ten and a half was perfect and as Mr. Bigs said "spot on",
