Ya, it can be hard to balance all the aspects you care about. Unfortunately we don’t recommend wearing our booties on rocks/concrete/coral, because the soles will wear out faster than normal. It’s on the horizon as something to improve. I’d love to give you a recommendation for an alternative, but my personal use case isn’t generally swimming — I haven’t tested a lot of the alternatives for that. Would normal surfing booties work? They’re often nearly skintight, and many have a rubberized sole which should help with the rocks/coral

- sunnybeetroot 2y agoWow I had no idea those existed, that’s very helpful thanks!
- pinkmuffinere 2y agoNo problem at all!! I would recommend staying with a “name band”, the generic ones you find on Amazon aren’t nearly as good. Name brand here would be like O’Neill, ripcurl, xcel, Vissla, Patagonia, etc
