The amphibious shoe has, in one embodiment, an elastic connection member (A,B) movably connecting the shoe portion () of the shoe to the fin portion () of the shoe.

Another embodiment includes a locking member (B,B) and a locking plate (B), wherein the locking plate defines a keyhole slot having a wide portion and a narrow portion, permitting conversion between walking mode and swimming mode when a lateral force is applied.
