Built for kids who treat water like a playground, the Merrell Bare Steps H2O Sneaker is a water shoe with real-world grit. Designed with a wide toe box for growing feet, a barefoot feel for better ground connection, and quick-dry materials that don’t hold them back, these shoes are made for sandy beaches, soggy trails, and spontaneous stream crossings.
- Quick-dry design keeps feet comfortable from beach mornings to trail afternoons
- Extra-wide toe box gives little toes room to spread, flex, and grow the way nature intended
- Multi-directional flex grooves in the outsole allow for natural motion and better traction on wet, uneven ground
- Alternative closure system makes it easy for small hands to get shoes on and off without help
- Anti-stink lining fights odours so they can wear them day after day without the dreaded shoe smell
- Rounded outsole edges and barefoot-style flexibility help support healthy foot movement and ground feel
- Lightweight footbed includes 10% recycled EVA, and the outsole uses 20% recycled rubber—less waste, more play
