I was attracted to the low price and quick prime shipping. I figured, &#34;what could go wrong, he won't fit in them next summer anyway.&#34; They arrived and were a little too snug to begin with. By the second use, the plastic ball tightener on the back broke. I had to rip that part off while at the beach because it left a jagged plastic shard and a sharp and pointed spring sticking out. The bottom of the shoe is that plastic-like material and not a rubber sole, so slipping is also a risk. Bummer.
