i was able to pick up a new pair of shoes for super cheap so i thought i would try them out.

they are made for Seadoo. it is a high top, very lightweight, quick drying, shoe that self drains. also has a removeable inner sole.

i dont think these would be something that would stand up to extreme tripping, but may be a good option for those that do shorter or less frequent trips like myself with limited portaging.

i am one of those that does not enjoy sitting around with wet feet all day. but last weekend i spent 4 days in these shoes with no socks and they did not bother me in the least due to how well they drain and dry. i never even bothered changing into my camp shoes.

they are quite comfy in the canoe and seem to do well on rocky surfaces, but would not be the best choice for slick mud etc.

i will try to post a link. hope i do it right. haha

These look intriguing. They are currently out of stock on the US site. For $45 might be worth a try.

Thank you for sharing these shoes. They look very intriguing.

I've gone to Boundary Boots, but for those who get their feet wet and keep the same shoes on, these shoes look great! Are they pretty lightweight?
