Great Niche Shoe

Let me start by reviewing what this shoe can't do. This shoe is NOT designed for running, carrying heavy loads, or other high impact activities. The massive shock and torque placed on the minimalist cushioning and heel strap respectively will overwhelm this shoe.

That being said, this amphibious shoe succeeds admirably in its purpose. I spend a lot of time exploring tide pools here in CA. This shoe protects my feet from jagged rocks and ocean surge. It provides excellent footing on slippery seaweed. The waterproof sole sheds water quickly while the heel strap provides a glove like fit. It is light enough to pack in as a camp shoe and comfortable enough for day hikes with a hydration pack.
