Pool Safety With Sandals
Pool safety may be the last thing on your mind if you live in an area of the country where the mercury is starting to fall on a regular basis. However if you work out at a gym with a pool, vacation in a warmer climate with a pool or swim regularly in a heated swimming pool, you need to remember the basics of safety around a pool.
First of all, get footwear with a good grip. Small pools of water that collect when other people get in and out of the swimming pool can make slippery walking areas, especially in bare feet. Make sure that you wear a pair of sandals on your feet that has a good rubber sole such as
Etnies Cinched Sandals. These sandals have great grip for even wet surfaces and they can be cinched to fit any foot perfectly. If you need a good stocking stuffer for the guy in your life that seems to have everything, he'll truly appreciate a good pair of sandals.
Another great pair of sandals are the Ocean Minded Laguna Sandals which are quite possibly the most comfortable sandals that you will ever slip your feet into. No matter what color your bathing suit is, you are pretty much guaranteed to find a pair that will match perfectly. The different color choices that are available are black, dove gray, Iceland blue, peppercorn, brown, raspberry and tan. These sandals feature a distressed canvas foot strap with a cozy suede foot bed so your feet will stay comfortable until you slide them off to hop in the pool.
Having a good walking surface is a prime safety rule for being around a pool. Another is never run or allow anyone to run around you. If they happen to fall or slip into you, you can be just as hurt as if you were running. Don't bring valuables to the pool and if you do, bury them deeply into your tote bag so they don't disappear when you hop in the pool!
