I love my Naturehike wading / trail running shoes — they are super comfortable and durable.












The Colour-block Mesh Wading Shoes are lightweight, quick-draining shoes built for river crossings, shoreline fishing, and any activity where your feet will get wet. The thin, flexible sole encourages a natural foot strike, strengthens the smaller muscles of the foot, and improves proprioception and balance over time. The benefits associated with barefoot-style footwear. The open mesh upper drains instantly and dries fast, while the grippy rubber outsole handles slippery rocks and wet surfaces.
Best for
Hikers, anglers, and paddlers who need a water-ready shoe for river crossings, rocky shores, and wet trail sections.
Not ideal for
Technical terrain or extended hikes where ankle support and a stiffer sole are required.
Additional features
- Colour-block design with contrast mesh panels
- Drainage holes in the sole allow water to escape immediately
- Drawcord lace closure for a secure, adjustable fit
- Anti-skid, wear-resistant rubber outsole

| XS | 36 | 4 | Up to 220 mm | 225 mm |
