adidas Unisex-Adult Adilette Shower Slides Sandal

width

During my recent order, I forgot they run narrow and tad short.

This new pair I received felt much narrower than any previous pair.

walking

While not really an issue for most, I know that it will start to wear thru my skin and leave a rash if I bring them to the beach and walk around a lot in them.

They also don't fit my foot's shape all that well; they have a tendency of slipping outwards as I walk, so my heel doesn't land center.

slippery

The shoe's insole is a bit slippery; I figured for shower shoes it would have more grip.

Had to go up 2 sizes to be comfortable on my son's foot.

sole grip

durable wear

Solid
I wear these for BJJ and I like the patriotic colors

running


True to size; I wear Adidas 12 MEN US runners normally, and these fit me when I ordered 12 US MEN also.

Great to use in shower
Dries fast, fits great

Bates GX-8 Gore-Tex Side Zip

strap

The new pair the Velcro is not fully sound, and has started to fall off after three weeks of wearing.

Some days when I forget to adjust the tongue prior to zipping up and lacing up, I would have the tongue rub into my shin.

Back of the left boot failed and then both zippers.

Back of the left boot failed and just a few weeks later the zippers on both boots broke.

even though the laces broke in less than six months (laces brake, thats okay) and the rubber on the back of the boots broke open in less than three months I ordered another set and got them today.

I previously laced from the in side out and couldn't keep the boots snug, the bungee kept getting lose.

worn-out

stretchy

Would love it if the manufacturer would use a mesh inside the rubber that keeps tearing as thus would limit how far it could stretch and likely prevent the tear from happening.

rubber boot

though it looks like I am just lucky and the rubber on back of the right boot keeps ripping open starting at the seam.

had to return/exchange

So I am in the process of returning them.

I returned and in a few days, Bates sent me a replacement right away.

Very durable
Worn mostly daily for work and on off days.

With the amount of walking, running and other activities, on both concrete, snow and flooring, the soles show no excessive wear and the Anti slip works fairly well on wet floors and excellent in slush and ice.

wear

Long lasting
I really like these boots, wore them when I was working and now in retirement!

I tested these boots at minus10 Celsius with thin Heat Gear summer UA socks, these boots were very warm and wearing wool socks were too hot.

LACES: To help me stay awake when driving I don't wear shoes.

durable

great value
these are durable, my last pair lasted 5 years.

purchase

The boots have survived 3 weeks and overall satisfied with the purchase.

I am looking forward to buying another Bates tac boot in the future.

Even with this dilemma I plan on buying these boots again.

I ordered size 14, got size 14, and they fit perfectly.
