Bummer, since they were on sale at MEC cheaper than the US price! One thing I didn't like about the high top version (aside from scrunching my toes) was that the upper part wasn't smooth and bits of the fabric and such dug into the top of my foot. I don't remember if it was a seam or a zipper. I expected a much smoother insides, like my generic reef boots. I wouldn't be able to wear them barefoot for very long. It could be the sample I tried was defective. In the back of my mind is a plan to get a Five-Ten resole kit and glue that to a heavy neoprene sock. In fact, I might still do that when the latex socks wear out on my drysuit.
