Comments about Merrell Torrent Glove Water Shoes - Men's:
I bought these specifically for sea kayaking in warm weather. Previous water shoes I've had were too bulky, particularly those that have an extended sole behind the heal (like most running shoes do), making it difficult to fit my feet inside the cockpit without my toes jambed up against the deck. These have soles no longer than my feet, that are just stiff enough to allow walking on rocks. Grip is pretty good on wet surfaces. Like most mesh water shoes, sand can and does get in when wading, but I don't see any way around that.
For my first day or two of wearing, there was some irritation from rough spots inside where several pieces of fabric come together along the lacing loops. This seemed to resolve itself, though I'm not sure I would want to hike in them. I should mention that I have a wide foot, so I'm sure that didn't help.
So far I'm pleased with them. Hopefully they will hold up. My most recent pair of Teva water shoes self-destructed in a matter of months.

Comments about Merrell Torrent Glove Water Shoes - Men's:
Great shoe with a low profile. No support (which is a positive) as the shoe is designed for this. Great for low impact hiking, or wet dry situations. It's become my daily shoe as I dress in casual sport gear most days.
