Amphibious adventure capability in the Techamphibian 5 Water Shoe
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"These shoes handle everything—rocky river crossings, muddy portages, even casual SUP sessions. The Quicklace system makes transitions super fast, and the Contagrip sole grips wet rocks like crazy."
Adventure rarely respects the boundary between land and water, which is why we lace up the Salomon Techamphibian 5 Water Shoe for pursuits that demand amphibious capability. Synthetic mesh construction drains and dries quickly while substantial outsoles protect feet whether we're navigating river bottoms or hiking waterfall approaches, creating footwear that excels in both elements.

Awful
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
These are nothing like the previous Solomon water shoes I’ve owned. There is stitching in all the wrong places. Blisters fest. Don’t buy them.

Water shoes are great

The shoes not only look good, but they perform perfectly in the pool. The shoes shed water easily and dry very quickly. The shoes are true to size. My husband wears a narrow, but it’s almost impossible to find ANY shoes in narrow. He did have to tighten up the back strap and firm up the shoestrings. He was very pleased with my purchase, and he is fussy when it comes to his shoes. Buy now!!!

Summer everywhere shoe
Perfect for a scramble on rocky trails or along the stream, comfortable and stylish enough to wear around town.

Excellent walking/running experience
I’ve had them a few weeks. Brought them along on vacation. Light weight, easy to pack and goes with everything.

Comfortable at first
Initially these are quite comfortable but the more I walk in them the more painful they get as my feet are a little wide around the toe area, so my little toes rub against the inside edge of the shoe and the skin gets rubbed off. I have tried to use shoe wideners to expand that area of the shoe, but it’s not worked. Shame as I rally like them.

WOW! Great Shoe!
This is one of the better shoes for all around use. I travel quite a bit both domestically and internationally and this are great shoes for walking around town and on the beach. Lightweight, ease to pack and multi use. Highly recommended!

Great fit and grip
I use these in a river that gets pretty slimy rocks at times, rocks that I have to traverse to get into and out of my jonboat. I've had many others over the years and these have proven to be the best yet
