Comments about Five Ten Canyoneer 2 Water Shoe:
The shoes are light, gives great traction, good drainage and good ankle support. Thy work great for canyoneering and I also use them with my waders when I go fishing. The only bad thing I have to say about them is that the buckles are a bit stiff and hard to use. Be careful of the sizes tough, if you want to wear them with neoprene socks they run small.

Comments about Five Ten Canyoneer 2 Water Shoe:
I've only put about 24 miles on these, all of it in the Zion Narrows, but they outperform anything I've used before. The traction and comfort is outstanding. My only complaint would be that after 8 miles I already had some fraying. Maybe I was a little too hard on them. I have suggested these to a lot of people already and I've bought other Five Ten products because of these boots.

Comments about Five Ten Canyoneer 2 Water Shoe:
Used these on a five day slot canyon hike at Paria Canyon in Utah. The shoes were great, stuck to everything, drained wonderfully, were comfortable and basically took everything thrown at them. On this trip that ranged from two foot deep mud pools to chest height water wading, along with some rock climbing and uncounted stream crossings.
Only cons are that the buckles, which are wonderful at keeping the shoes on in deep mud, are tough to use when cold. I also would like a little more ankle support.
Without these shoes the hike would have been so much harder. One companion had to dig his trail shoes out of the mud after they came off. I could walk on any stable rock, wet or dry, and know it would hold. The water drains from the tops and sides with every step, even when covered with mud.
They do take time to dry, and can get heavy at times, but overall a strong recommendation for anyone that will be hiking in wet/muddy conditions.

The Canyoneer II is hands down the best Creekboating shoe I've ever worn. They are super grippy on wet and dry rocks, comfortable hiking to the put-in and from the take-out, and fit tight enough to stay on in a swim situation. It's nice to have gear that you don't have to think about in a rescue/safety situation. The only drawback that I found was that they are a little bulky in my boat. Great shoe, if you can afford it.
