I took a dip into the New Balance 920 shoes and below is what I had to say about my experiences but first the stats.

The New Balance website lists the following features for the 920 water shoes:
- Vibram outsole
- Razor siping outsole
- C-Cap midsole
- H2Flow
- Water-resistant upper
- Quick pull lacing system
- Molded EVA insert

These retail for $89.99 and can be found at most outdoor retailers.

My husband and I canoe throughout the year and I'm always stressing over a good canoe shoe. I've tried trendy outdoor sandals, flip flops, tennis shoes, etc. and I've found problems with all of them. Here is what I loved about the New Balance 920:

-full protection from the sun for my feet
-the vibram sole gripped the put in and take out terrain making hauling the canoe much easier and secure
-they dry fast and the side holes above the soles release water well
-rocks stay out (except for smallest of pebbles but they were so small I didn't need to remove)

These shoes are so cute that I wear them out as well!
