    Rick I tried that and they can be comfortable, the traction is great as long as there not retreads
    I got a few of the sport sandals but mainly wear Moc's off duty.

    I bet it's another Vietnamese company trying to corner the market. And yes, I still think the tread should run sideways to confuse a tracker. For this area all weather tread works best but across the Northern border mud & snow is recommended. For our neighbors to the South I am sure racing slicks would work best, the Speedy Gonzalas model.

    I was thinking the tires with the little metal spikes. Traction or tap shoes --- your choice.

    Those are the most comfortable things since a bed made from iron nails.

    Tie them over your moc's or winter boots for you 20th century folks.
