RANDY SUNBarefoot Quick-Dry Sand Beach Socks, Breathable Seamless Yoga Sock With TPE Sole

Update #2:After using them on a more consistent basis, I found a happy but not ideal equilibrium. After rain (with wet or slightly wet sand), I use the Randy Sun. The rubber sole is sturdy enough to not wear a hole. When it hasn't rained for a while (with completely dry sand), I use normal sand socks. The Randy Sun lets in too much sand when the sand is completely dry. I still wear a hole with my normal sand socks, but at about twice the number of days. If it rains a few times a month, I may wear a hole in my normal sand socks in 8 weeks instead of 4 weeks if I play once a week. I am happy that I am spending less money on sand socks, but not so happy that I can't wear the Randy Sun all the time. So I recommend using the Randy Sun (high top) along with normal sand socks depending on the situation. I raise one star for Randy Sun to four stars.Update:I dropped 2 stars for the product, so now it is only 3 stars. I wore these socks for the first time to play in dry sand. They filled up with about a quarter pound of fine sand on each foot part way into a game. By the end of the game, I felt dragged down by the extra weight and mass. For wet, hard packed sand these socks are perfect. However, I don't think I can wear them for dry loose sand. As a comparison, I wore normal sand socks for some games and I could go on 2 or 3 games without having to empty the sand. For the Sandy Sun, I have to empty them before the end of a game. Normal sand socks are made of Lycra uppers. The Randy Sun is a cloth material which has bigger gaps - thus the reason for collection sand. Normal sand socks still wear out too quickly for me. I wish the Randy Sun (with its rubber sole) can have the upper part made of Lycra like normal sand socks.Original review:I am a high intermediate/advanced beach doubles player. My style of play requires a lot of jumping, quick start/stops and diving. Normal sand socks wear out quickly. Usually on the first wear, the beginning of a hole under the big toes will start to develop. By the 4th wear the holes will be big enough for me to throw out the sand socks. These Randy Sun sand socks, however, have a rubber sole which means no holes at all. I've only used these socks a couple of times but so far so good. Also, the thicker rubber sole provides much better insulation against the cold sand - I don't even notice the coldness. Additionally, the socks are not designated as left or right, so if a hole develops on one side, I can always switch them to the other foot.Sand does accumulate inside the socks so I empty them between games. It is kind of a hassle but normal sand socks have a similar problem. Get the high top so less sand gets in. Also, the cloth material shrinks after a cold water rinse - tight to put on when dried but loosens up a bit after some movement.

I purchased these to use for water aerobics and find them to be exactly what I wanted. They fit comfortably and do not come off in even the most active movements. My only warning is that they are very slippery on smooth wet tile.

After 2 days of non-intensive use, one pair developed a hole in heel region, which may be due to the stitching attaching the sole to the sock. Really love the product, but not exactly confident in it's durability. For the price, I'd probably take the chance.

Good fit & colors, grippy/traction; have not yet used on beach. Sizing chart XL fits as described.

I ware an 11 shoe (us male) and the 11 was way too big. I tried them out at the beach and returned themI bought them for camp shoes (hiking) and crossing rivers/streams

One caveat: I'm mobility impaired, so I don't walk a lot, but I'm also in a lot of pain, much of it coming from my feet.I wanted some very simple shoes to wear outside, and I was simply fed up with all the so-called "supportive" shoes out there. My feet just don't fit into a lot of them very well, and I wind up with cramping before I even get a block away from the house.These fit like compression socks. The soles are not quite an exact match - I had to size up for width, so the soles are a bit long for me. But that is ok with these because there is no arch and no toe-box to deal with. It's just a sock with a rubber (silicon?) sole on it. I feel loads more comfortable walking in these; they help me walk more mindfully and my feet just feel more free.I looked for a pair of those trendy five-finger shoes or zero-rise shoes that have hit the market, and I couldn't see spending the money, which is why I decided to start with this cheap alternative. So far, I feel like this is all I will ever want.

I wore them to the beach for 4 days, on the boardwalk, and to the pool and they did not get a hole in them. The rubber bottoms are great for the boardwalk, sand, etc. They fit well and are pretty easy to get on. I wear a men's 10.5 and XL fit me well. I only gave them 4 stars because if you wear them in the ocean you are likely to get a lot of sand in them, which can be challenging to get out.

I mainly got this because when I walk in sand for a long time my feet are rubbed raw and irritated, so this was perfect for that kind of protection. Also perfect for protecting your feet from super hot sand. Sand still finds a way to sneak into the sock but it’s not too bad. Cheap way to protect your feet.

I bought these beach socks to swim in the ocean at a rocky beach. The came nicely packaged with a handy nylon travel bag. I am a size 7 so I selected a size medium. They fit perfectly. The bottoms are made of a tacky rubber like material that bends and flexes; the top is a soft man-made material in a fun pattern. I like the lower cut as I will be wearing it with a bathing suit. Definitely happy with this purchase!

I wear a size 9½ shoe/boot, medium in these didn't fit so I gave them to a girlfriend who wears a women's size 8 and they fit her well. The soles seem to made of a decent material, I'll try a large next.

Parfait plage sable ou roches et piscine! Ne blesse pas. La semelle est assez rigide pour faire un peu de vélo entre la roulotte et la plage. 2 paires et un petit sac de transport. Exactement ce qu'on cherchait 😁😁 assez long à sécher par contre

I'm a size 7 foot and bought the small. These fit great and will be perfect for paddleboarding this summer. I have to do a small portage over a road to get to the big side of the lake so this will save my feet!

This has a rectangular shaped rubber sole and therefore too small in the big toe, and too long at the baby toe. It dries slowly, not quickly. It is over-priced in my opinion. Why offer all these colour designs when the basic product is poorly designed?
