What are the "soles" like? It looks like they are coated with something. Do you plan to walk around in them without sandals?
I bought some of these, or similar to these, tabi socks. http://cooleastmarket.com/products/nylon-tabi-anklets. They're just nylon, stretchy, not like knit socks, more like exercise pants fabric or something like that. I wore them with sandals and they didn't get foxtails in them even though I walked in a lot of them, so that was good.
the sole is like a thin semi textured rubber, i think its the same stuff they use on the footbed on some of their sandals, so it should hold up pretty good,, i plan to use them on their own. its real grippy on my kitchen floor. the outer is a nylon? and also has a liner, so it shouldnt pick up grass seeds etc very well. there is a vid on the link..
How is the breathability of the upper? I've been looking at some of the huarache sandals as camp shoes. I'm somebody who has to let their feet breathe at the end of a long day. I wear sandals or flip flops year round whenever I'm able. It's the mental start of relaxation after I get home from work–shoes come off first thing. So, I've never really been able to break the non-camp shoe mentality.
I was also intrigued by the new Xeroshoes Amuri Z-Trek which comes it around 6oz for the pair. Although that is double the Luna Tabu.
