When I purchased my two (I can inform the numbers) "HAYWARD" NAVIGATOR POOL VAC, they are equiped wtih kork shoes. I was very surprised because being myself Portuguese, didn´t know such use. Now I know why cork, natural material, rusky skeen of a Portuguese tree (and Portugal is the very first world producer). Like ourselves skeen, changed several times during our lives, cork is extracted each 9 (nine) years, from the "SOBREIRO" ( " Quercus suber"). "Cortiça", in portuguese, is not a kind of wood!. It´s a renewal skeen of a tree, (that don´t died after extraction) and on the contrary lived several centuries, as their brothers, the oaks! Cork shoes that comes with my "Navigator"s are resistent and durable, so I don´t know if exists better ones! M. Bento

These shoes work great on vinyl lined pools and really don't wear out prematurely. In the last 10 years, I've only replaced them 2X and it's simple to do. And they don't seem to cause any excessive wear on the bottom of the liner as well. Because they're made of some sort of cork material. I would venture to guess that they would not be a proper choice for anything else but a vinyl lined pool.

Does what was expected. Kind of difficult to remove old shoes, but new ones installed fine. Pool sweep moves like "new"....

Never used them before. Purchased to replace original shoes for a Hayward Aqua Bug vac for vinyl lined above ground pool. I bought two sets so we'll see how they perform. Seem like decent quality.
