Does anyone know if these would fill up with sand and pebbles while walking in the surf of a pebbly beach? My Target beach shoes did.

they will not, the bottoms are then and you do feel the rocks underfoot but the seal is tight

Even though I have not used it in sand much, I am pretty sure sand will have a hard time getting inside the shoe.

I've never walked in surf with these boots (assuming that you mean with bare legs), but based on experience with similar neoprene water shoes (assuming again that you"d be in water over the boot top), I wouldn't bet that it would keep out anything smaller than a pea. In calm water maybe, but not in surging ocean surf. In my opinion, you'd be safe only if the boot tops were covered by a long legged wet suit.

Yes they will. But they are very thin so be careful when walking in them outside. I brought them to a wedding and walked over gravel and it wasn't pleasant. But other than that they are great.

I've found that you only sink into the mat when barefoot. I don't notice any significant sinking when wearing shoes.

Mine is completely filled and I have had no problem. I did use it for flats and sandals mostly - not what I would call heavy shoes.

Although my daughter has only used these in beach sand, I would imagine they would protect your feet for a period of time in the pool. However, it is material and not rubber or some other hard sole surface. Thus if the pool is considerably rough, the material would eventually deteriorate. I would recommend water shoes verses sand socks for very rough pool surfaces.

I wore them wading briefly at the beach but I'm not sure how well they'd hold up if they got soaked in a pool.

I'm not sure if they would stay in place underwater. You could walk on them barefoot.

One bag play sand from Home Depot....but it had so many pebbles in it. We filtered out largest ones. Maybe someone else has better play sand. Do NOT use paver sand as this will harden when wet and of course it will with water so close. Sand from a garden center maybe? But... One bag was sufficient even after pebble removal. Enjoy your table!!

Cement/concrete would be too thin and probably set up and ruin the bags. Gravel may work. Sand is great, cheap and does not hurt customers toes if stepped in to.

They are wonderful, and really help with bunion pain. HOWEVER, I have discovered that they slide off easily IF they get wet...you don't even notice, because of the water. I wouldn't even try them on the beach. They don't slide off easily otherwise. I love them!

Works well with waders ....used them the other day barefoot and they are uncomfortable after only a short time. Keep in mind we use them while in fishing tubes (like small boats ) to get around the lakes. I may try them with a pair of those water shoes on and see how they feel... In the summer i rather fish without the waders (which have the boots attached) so trying to find the most comfortable way to wear these flippers to be able to move around the lake.... Def not barefoot.... Hope this helps

I would not recommend these for playing Beach Volleyball. These Socks are a great product, but are basically made to wear when using fins. They make getting your foot in and out of the fins a breeze! For Beach Volleyball, I would recommend a water shoe with a harder sole.

I wear them while surf-fishing along the sandy or rocky shore of SoCal. Although they are lite-weight, it seems a bit over-kill for swimmers.

Doubt it because of leather and water don't mix. I got my other pair soaked and they drew up a little. These just are not made to operate in underwater conditions.

Do not have an AR. You can fill them with anything--gravel, sand, rice or any grain works fine for filling. Fine sand is best. No issues with product quality to date. Would think the added jumping around of military weapons may pose problems with anything they rest upon but these bags are tough, so fire away--

Probably. The disposable covers are paper and the liquid on the shoes will probably leak through and if the shoes are very wet the covers will likely tear as well. On the other hand if the shoes are almost dry the footprints will not show. Also, you could try doubling the safety shoes for more protection.

I have glow in the dark pebbles. Black lights never seemed to do much to them. I think the Light has a hard time penetrating through the water. But that's just a guess. Go buy yourself a black light poster. Then if the pebbles don't work out you've got yourself something sweet
