Saw something like this hanging off a passing hiker but didn’t stop to ask what they were; figured they’d be easy to find by a search: WRONG. Â They looked like super light weight rubber sandals but with a tread pattern like a Vibram or something. Â Seems great for scrambling, water crossing, camp slipper etc… without all the weight of Keens. Â Ideas?

Jun 15, 2018 at 8:34 pm #3542241Might have been either of those but seem to recall a more aggressive sole along the lines of a hiking boot. Thanks though; I’ll look into these.
