Salomon Women's Techamphibian Water Shoe
No other Salomon shoe sells as well as the Techamphibian shoe. Whether you're on the trail or pushing off from the shoreline this versatile shoe has you confidently protected with superior comfort and exceptional grip. While other trail and paddle shoes attempt to make the transition from land to water and back, Salomon's Techamphibian does it better with a breathable single-layer of air mesh along the upper that dries faster than other forms of textile or suede upper configurations. In back you'll find a versatile heel strap that you can adjust to fit your needs both in and out of your boat, kayak or raft. A Quickfit™ lacing system up top allows for easy fit modifications without the hassles of knots or double lacing. If convenience floats your boat, Salomon's Techamphibian is one of the best you'll find on any body of water.
- Salomon's top-selling shoe
- Highly breathable single layer air mesh upper facilitates drying even in cool conditions
- Fast-drying textile and synthetic reinforcements along upper to support your foot
- Salomon Optimized fit for women exceeds the performance limitations of unisex shoes
- EVA die cut sock liner treated with Agion™
- Adjustable heel strap
- EVA molded midsole with patented convertible heel for improved fit
- Weight: 10 oz. (283g.) per shoe in women's size 7

Anonymous - 2005-03-13Good fit, great color...
I actually returned a pair of white-&-Blue Merrell's when these arrived...not only are they comfortable, but the color makes it possible to wear them unobstrusively with shorts, etc.Looking forward to the first kayak trip in them.

Jane - 2008-06-11Great for Water Aerobics!
I love these shoes! They are true-to-size and perfect for water aerobics. Their narrow fit is perfect for me, and they drain well and dry quickly. The lacing system is the best!
Jan B. - 2008-04-21Great shoes. Excellent fit and support.
Wore the shoes kayaking yesterday & they were great. Lots of support and protection. Water drained fast. No residual sand. I am diabetic and need total foot coverage, so these shoes fit the bill while being light weight and quick drying. Excellent fit and arch support.
Jane Asher - 2008-03-21Great for Water Aerobics!
This shoe has a great fit and is true to size. I use them for water aerobics and they work very well. Nice adjustability features for a custom fit!
brandy patterson - 2008-01-27love my techamphibians
Love the shoes they stay on and I am not scared to walk along the shore and into the water they stay on and fit great dry fast and clean.
Anonymous - 2008-01-16Excellent find...
My wife loved her Techamphibian's... We went on a cruise and she wore them constantly not only because of the traction, but because they look like a nice pair of sneakers.
Anonymous - 2007-12-31Hightly recommended.
Very compfortable light weight shoes. I wear them on a daily basis. My husband and daughter now own ones too. Your feet are never hot in them and what's nice about them is that you can slip into them easily without the hasssle of laces and if you prefer you could lower the heal and walk with them as you do with your slippers. No need to hesitate in buying those shoes.
Cleo Herbert - 2007-11-26Salomon: Women's Techamphibian Water Shoe
I am completely satisfied with the techamphibian water shoes, and the color is superb. They are lightweight, keeps me from slipping during water movements,and I can barely tell I have them on.I am so happy that I found them because they are truly serving me well. I do not hesitate to recommend them to any lady participating in water aerobics.
Lee Takasugi - 2007-09-26GREAT, comfortable, light-weight water shoes!
I had been looking for a pair of light-weight water shoes b/c although everyone raves about Keen, I own a pair and find them bulky and heavy. These Salomon shoes are excellent. They are comfortable and have a custom-fitting system that allows you to tighten the heal and the over-all shoe to comfort. This I LOVE because I have narrow feet. My husband, who has wide feet, also can fit in these but he doesn't need to tighten the heel or over-all shoe. I like the fact that there aren't any laces, also. The great thing that I discovered just yesterday is that they don't slip when walking over rocks near streams. I always had a traction problem with other water-type shoes, but these grip VERY nicely and allowed me to leap from rock to rock without losing my footing. They are SO light-weight, which is a plus to me b/c I want to be able to slip them on and grab them and put them in my hiking bag at a moment's notice. They run one size larger. My husband wears a 15, but the size 14 fits him perfectly.
Anonymous - 2007-09-24Fantastic Shoes
Great traction in the water..comfortable in the gym too. Dry quickly
Kirsten Smidt - 2007-08-05Great for my use.
I live in the tropics and this shoe does the job for me. I wear it with a very thin cotton liner sock walking in high temperatures/humidity. My feet are always happy and cool even after hours of city walking.
MC - 2007-02-22I love mine!
These shoes are perfect for everyday wear as well as hiking, and other low mileage outdoor activities. Not only do they look great but they are functional as well. I love mine - I'm wearing them out. We gave them out as Christmas presents and everyone else loves theirs too! I have only heard positive things about them, they are amazing.
Rita W Mathews - 2006-09-25great shoe
Used these in the Galapagos, from wading to hiking they were perfect,Dried out quickly and were even comfortable hiking shoes when wet.They were excellent on Lava fields. I love them for all events.
Anonymous - 2006-09-06Super shoe
Love this shoe. I also wore them in Costa Rica a couple of weeks ago when visiting my daughter and she loved them and kept them. They are perfect for the hot, sticky rainy season. I had to order another pair for myself when I got home.
Mila Reid - 2006-08-20Great for paddling and short hikes
Just used these on a six-day paddle thru Clayoquot Sound and worked great from boat to beach to woods and back to boat. Dried fast.
Kathy Kim - 2006-08-10LIGHT & COMFORTABLE
I bought these pair of Salomon's Tech. water shoes to wear as summer sneakers to wear without socks as well as for wet wading when I'm fly fishing in warm weather. They are perfect for both! Functional and cute.
Melinda Shipp - 2006-07-25Awesome Shoes - Will Not Disappoint
I have enjoyed wearing these shoes on the weekends while running around town. They are so comfortable...I just love them! I purchased them for an upcoming trip to the Frio River (in Texas) and now they will perform beautifully. I am no stranger to Solomon shoes...I have owned many pairs and have never been disappointed. They provide excellent traction and stability for those tough hikes and look cool just wearing around town. I look forward to hiking the Subway and the Narrows (Zion National Park) in the near future wearing these shoes. They will be perfect for that type of terrain.
mens Salomon: Techamphibian Water Shoe - 2006-07-15awsome great for swimming not great for sand
love them got really good deal on them free so love them ever since i got them i use them for swimming jogging everything in summer even in fall
Katheen - 2006-07-05One Great Shoe
I thought I am going to put these shoes to the test. I wore them hiking the first day. I loved them they were so light on my feet and the fit was fabulous no slipping because you can tighten up the heel of the shoe. Then I wore them tubing down a river with many rocks of all sizes. Gosh they were comfortable and I didn't slip or cut my feet. Then when I got out they dryed so fast. I also loved all the different colors they come in. I think I am going to get another pair in a different color. I also wore them kayaking. They were great. Thanks for making such a great pair of multi-purpose shoes.
Natalie - 2006-04-20I love these shoes!
I got these shoes because I work at a summer camp and am in and out of the river frequently. They are comfortable as hiking shoes, but just a comfortable in the water. They can be worn with or without socks, and I swear they make my feet look smaller. I got the white and blue pair, and I wear them all the time. It took a little while to get used to the heel on one of the shoes, but the adjustable heel strap makes it easy to have a looser fit when needed. I would highly recommend these shoes to anyone looking for lightweight hiking/river shoes.
Anonymous - 2006-03-28Keep your feet cool...
This is actually my second pair. I loved the first ones so much that I just had to get another pair. My first pair are about 5 years old and are still wearable, just a little beat up looking. I originally bought the shoes for around the water but now I even wear them to work in the summer. We have a closed toe shoe policy and these do the trick but aren't too warm like regular shoes. Just be careful with the mesh siding; I wore my first pair in some brush and ripped one on the mesh windows on a branch.
CE - 2005-09-13Great shoes!
These are great shoes - I bought them for a vacation in Costa Rica & they were wonderful. I wore them in the rain forests & waterfalls. They have enough support in the soles that they were also comfortable enough to hike in. I would definitely recommend them for anyone who is looking for a light, airy & comfortable shoe.
adriana lopez - 2005-09-10Techamphibian Water Shoe
it's the best buy that I have done. these salomon is perfect to walk on the rocks and in the water. It's comfortable and fix perfect. congratulations salomon and for you (altrec) too for delivery just in time.
Anonymous - 2005-09-06Great Kayaking Shoe
I kayak in gulf coast bays where there are lots of oysters and things to cut your feet. These shoes are sturdy enough for protection, but water drains instantly so your feet don't feel wet and heavy. Comfortable, too. Bought my 1st pair 2 years ago -laces finally broke.Two years is a good life span for ANYTHING in salt water.
Anonymous - 2005-07-25great shoe
all purpose, comfortable shoe. Used in water and light to moderate hiking in Grand Canyon, Bryce, and Zion. Recommended!
Shirley J. - 2005-07-24Great Water Shoe
This will be a great water shoe, but I wore them with a pair of socks and they looked just like fine and they were cooler. My sister and I each got a pair and absoluely love them. The sizing seemed to be right on so order what you usually wear. My sis and I highly recommend these.
Anonymous - 2005-05-16Best shoe & Best service
I purchased the shoes for a water aerobic class. I look at shoes marketed for the water aerobics but they are soooooo ugly. The shoes arrived in 3 days fit great and look great. I have recommended the shoe and the sercive from Altrec to many of the women in my class.
Anonymous - 2005-03-28Versatile, comfortable, stylist outdoor shoe.
This shoe is great because it's so versatile. They are comfortable, and they can go anywhere. Today I did some light hiking in them, I'm looking forward to using them in the water.

susan crowe - 2008-09-03FAST SERVICE ,GREAT SHOES
I am enjoying my new water shoes, comfortable and cool. They are great for beach hikes, keeping out the pebbles like sandals never would.
Anonymous - 2008-01-03Purchased for warm water vacation
I purchased the shoes for an upcoming warm water vacation. I never purchased shoes online before, however the live chat with the staff of Altrec insured a great fit. I like the adjustable heel it appears when they are wet I can have confidence they will stay on my feet.
Teri - 2006-07-30GREAT SHOES
I am very happy with the fit and color. I am having a problem with the sliding lace. I use these for water aerobics and they work great. The sliding lace is a little bulky and gets in the way. Other than that they fit perfectly
Anonymous - 2005-09-07Good shoe for wet, lower mileage days.
The shoe drains water well and dries quickly as advertised. The sliding lacing system is slightly difficult to get used to, but tradeoff for no more lace worries is worth it. The fold down heel which converts it to a camp slipper is a nice additional feature. I find it good for hiking in and around streams. Upper limit for mileage seems to be about 8 miles before my feet aren't happy in them.
Mahealani A - 2005-09-04Good on rocks but not algae-covered ones.
Great water shoe, drains well. I wore it on an eleven mile hike down in the Waimea Canyon (Kauai, Hawaii) along the river. There were several river crossings and the shoe worked well on dry rocks but was slippery on the algae-covered rocks. They were very comfortable, I had no blisters. The shoes are true to size. If you usually wear an 8, order that size. I wore Cool-max socks with the shoe so they dried fast also.
Anonymous - 2006-09-03Disappointing
I bought the shoes as a last resort as I couldn't find all the features I needed for my trip in BWCA Wilderness. I ended up with bandaids plastered all over my feet to protect the areas where they rubbed in spite of having them as loose as I could to keep them from falling off. The fold down heel feature was tortuous as it was like walking on wadded up straps. They kept out major sticks and big rocks but most portage landings had lots of sediment and small debris which made their way into the shoe bed. The traction was good for all but the most slippery of rocks and did well on the long portages carrying a canoe and full pack. (ensuring of course I had the bandaids all in the right place). Fairly easy to get on and off in a hurry. Dried fast which also made it easier to remove the insole to get rid of the leaf and small stick debris that accumulated I relied on the reviews from several websites before I made my choice with reservations. Unfortunately they just didn't measure up for a good water shoe for the task I needed them for.
