Mesorat%20hashas for Mikvaot 10:4

אֵלּוּ שֶׁהֵם צְרִיכִים שֶׁיָּבֹאוּ בָהֶן הַמַּיִם, הַקֶּשֶׁר שֶׁבַּפְּרַקְסִים שֶׁבַּכָּתֵף, וְשָׂפָה שֶׁל סָדִין צָרִיךְ לְמַתֵּחַ, וּתְפִלָּה שֶׁל רֹאשׁ בִּזְמַן שֶׁאֵינָהּ חוֹצָה, וְשֶׁל זְרוֹעַ בִּזְמַן שֶׁהִיא עוֹלָה וְיוֹרֶדֶת, וּשְׁנָצִין שֶׁל סַנְדָּל, וּבְגָדִים שֶׁהִטְבִּילָן מְכֻבָּסִין, עַד שֶׁיְּבַעְבְּעוּ. הִטְבִּילָן נְגוּבִין, עַד שֶׁיְּבַעְבְּעוּ וְיָנוּחוּ מִבִּעְבּוּעָן:

The following require that the water enter into them [when they are immersed]: the knot at the shoulder of an undershirt, and the edge of a sheet [though it] must be spread out, and the head <i>tefilah</i> when it is not tight, and that of the arm when it slides up and down, and the straps of a sandal [used for fastening it]. Clothes that were immersed after being washed, [are not pure] until they bubble [i.e. they are pure once they rest on the water, even if they are still air bubbles between the clothing and the water]; if one immersed them after they were dried, [they are not pure] until they bubble and finish their bubbling [i.e. until they have been fully immersed, with no air bubbles separating them from the water].
