Customer relaxing with their feet up, wearing the white Early Bird Wildpools with blue laces indoors.

Gavin H.Verified

Absolutely love my Wildpools. Worn them everywhere from the swimming pool and gym changing rooms to nipping to the shop for milk! Can’t wait to get them on holiday this year and try them out on the beaches. Whilst the sizing app must have been a source of frustration for all the staff, the communication has been spot on and buying an excellent product from a small business is always a massive bonus!

Ok so these are good but could be excellent. They need a hole in the heel as this collects water that does not drain away. Also they collect sand like no ones business and it doesn’t go away so not ideal. The heel / ankle area is too high and causes blisters because the sizing is soo bad. They are tight in the toes and too loose at the back. The main issue is that they don’t drain water well or sand at all. Not bad for what I paid but wouldn’t pay full price for them. They look good I suppose

Wildpool shoes - I remember hearing about them and being on board with the concept. Having received them I'm hooked. Fantastic shoe from a fantastic team!

I've just used my shoes for a week at the caravan in Anglesey. On the beach, in the sea and spending time walking around the towns and villages. I have even left them on for pub meals in an evening. The fit is excellent, the quality is superb. I have a weak ankle which is a problem on sand and uneven ground but the width of the sole helps prevent the ankle roll. I'm very satisfied with the product and will be recommending wild pool to friends who also would benefit from these excellent shoes.

wildpool have delivered as they said they would. The shoes are as described, very comfy, and came with a handy bag and carry strap that i wasn't expecting! As the season is about to start, i haven't had the chance to test-drive them yet, but the quality seems very good and the service has been informative!

Perfect fit. Had to adjust my foot rests in the kayak due to the thickness of the soles. Will probably remove them for actually kayaking and then put them back on again when getting in and out along the riverbank

A reviewer's top-down view of the Early Bird Wildpools in Midnight Splash, showing the bright orange laces.

Mr J.Verified

Pretty comfy, but after a day of wearing them with wetsuit socks I did get a blister on the arch of my foot, the laces too were a little long, yes they are just for decoration but because of the sizing issues of the 1st batch I used them to snug the fit a bit by shortening the paracord with a hot knife and retied them. Have yet to give them a full on testing in the water.

The sizing seems odd, I don't know how to get help? Can I get an exchange for a smaller size as I think due to the shape my foot slides about in this one so much it will hurt me barefoot?

I love the colour way and they are pretty comfortable. The customer service was fantastic, I ordered one size but when they arrived they were too big so I emailed to ask for an exchange and the smaller size arrived super quick.

Good fit ( following guidance provided.) Light and comfortable. looking forward to using these while sport fishing and any time near the water.

I'm so pleased with these. They are super comfortable and look really good. I suffer from plantar fasciitis and these are great for me.

They are really comfortable, but the size doesn’t seem right, I went through all the AI stuff and als measured my foot but still too big! I aim to change them for a smaller size but have already worn them a bit so not sure they will Allow that!

I went for the smaller size and they fit perfectly and very happy with how long they took to get to me

Shoes and bag are great, but they are way too big. Size is way off. I'm going to have to give them away. :(

The fit is good, although haven't used them in the water as yet! I'm normally a 43 and chose the 42, which, I think will work really well with bare feet.

Love the shoes, love the look. However, they are a little large on the feet. I did use the clever scan process and it did come up with my normal shoe size, 41, but they are a touch loose. overall happy with them though and look forward to wearing them on sunny beaches.

Love these for walking to the lake, super light, great grip (tested on a boat slipway) and look fab too. These are going to be used all summer long!

Sizing was an issue. AI sizing tool wasn’t working. Sized down as had seen they were coming out a size larger for initial batch. Should have done down 1 size further. Usually 42.5-43.5 depending on brand. Went 42, but probably need a 41 and smaller fit in these style shoes. Shames as look great but need to see about returning or reselling / gifting.

Wrong size. I ordered a 45 based on the size from the online fitting. I didn't realise that I had to change just before the order. I actually needed a 43. Emailed to ask to change but heard nothing. Shoes amazing but I can't wear them as too big. So disappointed 😞

Sized down by half a size and they are perfect. Great cushioning and very comfortable

Ben H.Verified

The shoes seem to be excellent quality. However I trusted the AI sizing tool, even though it suggested a 45 when I regularly wear 43, but the shoes that have been delivered are far too big.

The shoes are over sized and I have been trying to get in contact for over a week to arrange swapping for a smaller size both via email and Instagram, with no luck. I appreciate this is a startup, and I’m willing to pay for the shipping costs to return and send a smaller pair. It’s frustrating because the shoes look amazing, absolutely perfect for what I need. I just want a pair that fits!

Good fit, when they are worn in a little they will be awesome.

amazingly comfy - have worn them every day at the pool.

The shoes are much too wide for me (and possibly too long too). I am waiting to try a friend’s 38 before deciding whether to return them too you. Sadly as they are, they are unwearable for me.

Hi there, I really like them, but they are really big. I'm a size 10.5-11, and ordered appropriately, but they feel like 12s. Would love to get a smaller pair at the same early-bird rate?

Love them, the colour, the style and fit, cannot wait to get them wet!

I found them just too big; I have wide feet and size 10.5 uk normally so I bought the size 46. I used the interactive sizing guide which recommended size 46. Sadly they were far too big; not just in length but also width. Probably should have gone 45 or even 44 which suggests to me the sizing is too big to standard sizing. I am using them as gardening shoes now as they will fall off if in water or running.

Great shoe just wrong size

I bought these for their eco credentials. Each wrapped in plastic with plastic bubbles inside, a pointless bag and some useless straps. I just wanted some recycled shoes and now have lots of landfill. Shoes are OK. They press a bit on the top of my foot in the area around the laces.

The best. Thank you.

Ali T.Verified

The first pair I got was too big. I ordered when the advice was to go with normal shoe size. I returned (paying postage) and got exactly the same size back. Now you are not replying to any of my messages. I could return and hope to get the correct size, but this means paying postage for the third time, and no guarentee these will be right. I think I give up.

"How could we improve", you ask? Well, actually delivering my shoes would be a start!! I've had a horrendous experience and, no, your excuse for being a small, new company does not sit well with me bearing in mind that I've written numerous e-mails and Messenger DM's. You've mistakingly cancelled my order, delivered shoes that are too big, taken payment twice and yet the question remains: Where are my shoes?????

Wildpool Waterproof Slip-On Shoes — Early Bird

Mr J.Verified

Bit thin and tacky material, design is nice but the bag feels cheap and low quality, will see how it stands up, nice as a "free" gift to keep the straps in and hang the shoes on my peg at work

Natasha M.Verified

The shoes are lovely however have an odd shaped toe box. I would prefer them to be rounder but that’s personal preference

Bag OK, not sure what belt is for, shoes are decent but are too big so unfortunately are unwearable to me
