It seems that we are always finding new, different, cutting edge cool gear, but posting it all over the place. This could be a central area for all the latest and greatest.

Here is my submission. I noticed it in Outside mag, and have a pair on order.

What do they weigh?

I have a pair of size 11 Teva water shoes, NOT SANDALS, that are two pounds for the pair.

I have no idea. I can't find the info. anywhere, but when I handled them, they seemed pretty light, and definately rugged. I think I'm gonna make this my all-in-one spring-summer-fall hiking shoe for weekend trips that don't involved massive climbing.

Once I weigh them, I'll let ya know.

A Kevlar Boot?
Cool site Tilt

Interesting boots from Hi-Tec - but why Kevlar? Is it water resistant? Does Kevlar breathe?
