can you use them for swimming- I live in Hawaii and the beaches I go to are rough!

That's exactly what I use them for with tankini tops or even over a one-piece bathing suit (so that I don't have to worry about shaving or waxing).

I would think so. They are not thick and I think they would be comfortable.

I live in the Bahamas and I used this a lot for swimming last year and they held up very well.

I've never used them for swimming. I only use them for sleeping. There's only one way to find out if they work while swimming. Good luck.

Sorry, I haven't tried them in the pool. I bought them because they are small, and no wires. I like them. The sound is good, but they are hard to navigate while walking. I have to take them all to use the buttons. Still a great buy.

Swimming might prove a tad difficult. They are flexible enough for that but it wouldn't be something I would do numerous laps in.

I have never tried them in the water. I'm not sure if these would work, as I would think it would be rather difficult to keep them in place and could lead to an embarrassing moment. I wouldn't try it unless the top to your swim gear is really secure and bra-like. I always spray them with hairspray before I put them on, so I know they will be locked in.

I use them on the lake and attach them to my boat cleats when anchored. I'm sure you could use them in the ocean, however the center is mesh and not open to put your torso through like a tube. Good luck.

Hmm-m-m-m. . . I love thinking outside the box! Yes, I THINK these would work for that. They're stretchy, would cling to your feet, and offer a measure of protection from debris in the sand and heat. I don't know if they would keep the sand completely out though. Don't know what to say about size, except that I take between an 8 1/2 and 9, got a large, and it was a bit big (but no problem for swimming with fins).

I would NOT recommend swimming. These will absorb water which is probably what you would like to avoid. (I tried it! ) I think Amazon has some pretty decent swimming plugs. Hope this helps! :o)

yes they can be used in the pool. we used ours all summer and had no problems.

Yes... I am a new swimmer, but a mature woman .. I tried longer fins at my pool, but they felt clumsy. These are perfect for me. They help me move through the water, and work a bit harder. I love them. I ready one review about pressure on your arches, which is true. If you have a high arch you need to stretch them a bit. but they are worth the effort. New swimmer

If you cry and get them wet.....they will fall off, so I would think swimming would be a disaster.

I wouldn't consider them water resistant but would consider the Tango Thong very water tolerable. In wearing mine, they sometimes get wet but always dry without drawbacks like shrinkage or staining. When my Tango Thongs need cleaning due to perspiration or just plan dirt I float them upside down in the swimming pool for a day and then let them air dry in the sun. I hope this answer helps and if you're on the fence about getting a pair of these, go ahead and get them. They are the best and most versatile flops out there.Jimmy

I never did go swimming with them but when I used them I never felt comfortable going without a pad with it because you never know when it was going to leak and sometimes they did. Also, when they do get full they are hard to clean in a public place. After getting such a bad urinary tract infection from wearing these I don't ever want to use them again...

I think they would. We use them for sand volleyball and when the sand is moist it gets packed and hard. Even in intense playing my husband's feet are always perfect. The material on the bottom of the sock I think, would keep your feet protected from the pool.

My husband and I wear ours daily in our pool. If we "should" I can't answer. However, I will say they do fine with our water exposure.

The pair that i had didn't make it three good months and I only used them for working out but I sweat a lot more than the average person . My thought is if they couldn't handle the occasional sweat they may not hold up good for swimming . Maybe I had a bad pair. I liked them enough to buy another pair .
