9 ReviewsNRS Desperado Shoe
Need more sole? NRS took all the features that make the Desperado Sock the most comfortable sock available and added a 3mm rubber sole for improved traction. The Desparado Shoe is still ultra-low-profile, and ultra-comfortable, but offers even better support and protection for extended portages and sidehikes.
Whole sizes only.
Women order one size smaller.
1/2 sizes order one size larger.
These shoes are running snug - If you are in between sizes or have wide feet you may want to consider the next size larger.
- 3-mm neoprene padding in toes and heel
- 3-mm neoprene upper with stretchy Lyrca$reg; exterior

Anonymous - 2009-02-15NRS Desperado Shoe - Great In & Out of Boat
This is a great shoe. It is comfortable enough to wear in and out of the boat, providing enough traction to scout the river.
Anonymous - 2008-07-15Excellent shoes!
I wear these when whitewater kayaking. They're very comfortable and don't fall off like my old shoes did. The treads are sturdy enough for walking on ground and also grip rocks well when walking in the water.
Michael D. Hancock - 2007-08-27Great Shoe!
When I was forced to switch from canoe to kayak due to knee problems I found my trusty NRS felt soled river boots just a bit to bulky. So I bought a pair of Desperado and was very glad I did. They fit great, like a sock in the boat, like a shoe out of the boat. Nothing will replace felt for slippery river rocks. but this comes real close. Highly recommended.

Carin Cirino - 2007-01-26GREAT !
Finally...I have found the perfect paddling shoe ! And the sole is even sturdy enough to handle the Everglades oyster beds ! Be aware though that women may not need to order a size smaller as suggested.
R Mack - 2006-09-12SOLID!
I own both the sock and shoe and the shoe is great. I use it for diving and kayaking. I like that it does not need a tighting strap.
Mike Kennedy - 2006-08-01Great Shoes!
I wear these when I kayak and my feet love them. Extremely comfy in the boat and great for walking on rocks.
Buxton - 2005-08-10Great shoe when sailing a Hobie 16
I found this shoe to work great on my boat. It is easy to get my feet under the hiking strap with no buckels or lases. Good grip when trying to right the boat after flipping. I bought a pair for my girlfriend after trying them
Jonathan - 2008-06-18Good all purpose river shoe
I work as a rafting guide on weekends and these shoes stand up to most of the challenges I throw at them. The soles are thick enough to protect my feet from the rocks on the river bottom and they provide excellent traction in slippery areas. They also stand up to the task out of the water and I have used them hiking on river banks and carrying whitewater rafts. So far they are doing the job.
Maureen - 2005-08-07fit and comfort
This was my first experience buying water shoes and also buying from altrec.com. The sizing was right on, the fit is great. the shoes are comfortable and the service was everything I expected.
