Beach/Water Shoes

[digaholic]

Does anybody have any suggestions on what shoes to wear while hunting on the beach in the surf and on dry sand? I am looking for something that allows the least amount of sand to accumulate inside the shoes. Thanks.

Hey digaholic. That exact question was asked on this (beach/water) forum recently. Just do a search or scroll back down the forum until you find it. Plenty of good choices to choose from. Good luck.

I like diving boots. Not expensive. Warm. Keeps sand out better than anything else I've tried. Zippers tend to get a little sticky with the sand, but working them in the water work good to flush them out.

Sticky zippers?? Any dive shop will have zipper lube. cheap and goes on easy. After you use it the zippers are good for another 20 or so zips. Also after you use it you will wonder why you didn't have it sooner!!!! Supurb for the back zipper on wetsuits also!!

Sand entry is minimal, but I also wear the sock to avoid blisters. http://www.nrsweb.com/shop/product.asp?pfid=2342&pdeptid=1168
