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.

Here's what customers have to say
The shoes provide good traction and drainage in wet conditions, with a breathable mesh upper that keeps feet cool and dry. However, some customers have experienced issues with the fit, noting the shoes run narrow and may cause discomfort or blisters, especially for those with wider feet. There have also been reports of quality control problems, with some pairs exhibiting manufacturing defects. Overall, the shoes seem to work best for those with narrow to average width feet who are looking for a versatile, water-friendly option for summer activities.

Very disappointed with this shoe 😢
I am a huge Solomon shoe fan!! However this model has caused painful sores after light wear. Even with socks my feet are in pain from the interior lace gromet. The heel fabric is tearing after less than 14 days of non-continuous use (only a few hours worn each of the days). I am shocked by how this model is so inferior to my past Solomon water hike style shoes. I purchased from an authorized dealer and concerned my return request will not be honored due to being delivered over 30-days ago.

Very versatile
I really enjoyed the ability to use these shoes on summer our trails. Crossing a stream was no problem and very quick to dry. Foot stays comfortable the whole way.

Have worn this shoes as my primary hiking shoes many times this summer ranging from slippery surfaces in Hawaii to vertical hikes and light rock climbing in Vermont. Love them.

Great overall shoes
Took these shoes river floating. Fit felt secure when walking on the river bed. Good for casual wear as well. Definitely recommend.

Hot spots galore; shame for a good shoe
I’m a big fan of Salomon sneakers and though these would be great water shoes. However, I was quite disappointed. After 3 days of light usage, I had multiple sores/hotspots on both of my feet and in the same locations. They just did not do a good job of smoothing over the transitions from mesh to stitching. I can’t imagine wearing these again without some sort of sock, which defeats the entire purpose. I really wanted to like these but I just can’t.

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.
