Water Walking Boots found in the cavern layer.

Water Walking Boots are an accessory that allows the player to walk on water, honey, and Shimmer. The player moves across these liquids at normal speed without sinking. They do not allow walking on lava. When the player is on a liquid, they may press ▼ Down to fall through the liquid, similar to a platform.

On the  PC,  Console,  Mobile, and  tModLoader versions, there is a 10*1/10 (10%) chance to find Water Walking Boots in Water Chests, Ocean Crates, and Seaside Crates. On the  Old-gen console,  Windows Phone,  Old Chinese, 3DS, and  tModLoader Legacy versions, there is a 6.67*1/15 (6.67%) chance to find them in Water Chests.

Notes

• Walking on a liquid requires a stable surface, indicated by the bright line on the surface. Moving liquid cannot be walked on and will be fallen through normally.
• Landing on the surface of water or honey with these equipped will not cause fall damage.
• All Water Walking Boots (including Obsidian Water Walking Boots, Lava Waders, Hellfire Treads and Terraspark Boots) can walk on Honey and Shimmer.
• If the player grapples something below them while they are standing on water, they will be pulled in.
• Riding a land mount while having the Water Walking Boots or any of its upgrades equipped will transfer its abilities to the mount (e.g. the Blessed Apple mount will walk on water, while the Shrimpy Truffle mount will not).
• Using an Obsidian Skin Potion while having the Water Walking Boots equipped allows walking on lava.
