Merrell Hydro Quest Junior Sandals

As kids outgrow their Bare Steps shoes, the Hydro Quest is perfect for new adventures. Ideal for day camp and splash pads, this water-friendly shoe offers excellent wet and dry traction and a barefoot feel with zero-drop height. With easy-on closure and quick-drying materials, kids can seamlessly transition from water to land with the Hydro Quest.

Quick-Drying, Water-Friendly Upper

Featuring quick-drying and water-friendly materials, the upper of Hydro Quest allows for a variety of adventures, wet or dry. The materials dry fast to keep feet feeling lightweight and comfortable throughout wear without causing distractions or irritation as you move from water to land. Two alternative closures with hook-and-loop fastenings offer easy on and off with quick and simple adjustability on the go.

EVA Moulded Footbed and Flexible Rubber Outsole

A soft, lightweight EVA-moulded footbed sits underfoot to provide all-day cushioning and comfort. Its 0mm drop facilitates a natural connection to the ground to provide a similar feel to walking barefoot, giving a natural stride and improving agility to keep your child steady on their feet. A flexible rubber outsole offers exceptional grip and is designed for both wet and dry surfaces. Providing superior durability and wet/dry traction, the Hydro Quest ensures confident footing for a multitude of water and land adventures in warmer weather.

A temporary flocking material may be found on the outsole (bottom) of this shoe. The flocking material may peel off over the life of the shoe without impacting performance.
