I can't speak to those models, but I've used Teva water shoes for all my trips. I know ankle support is a concern, so that Cherry Bomb looks interesting from that point of view. I use the ankle height lace -up shoes with the mesh vents for shedding water. The TEVA spider sole is really good, doesn't hold mud, but grips well on all surfaces wet or dry. Of course you hit the right combination of wet and moss, and your going down ;) I've gotten at least 2-3 trips out of each pair I've purchased. I look for the discount sites and buy them as cheap as I can. I do a little local testing wearing a pack and get them into some mud and see how they handle. So far all the models I've used held up and never came apart. Eventually the mesh drainage ports gave out from abrasion, but for the price I could live with that.
Have you checked the OTB boots, I think they have a higher boot and some here highly recommend them.
Only thing I see on the Cherry Bomb or similar shoes, is that in my experience, shoes with Velcro type straps can get mud caked in Velcro, and sometimes come loose at the wrong time, like knee deep in a mud hole :'(
