Very similar-looking ones cost $CDN 16 at MEC store (used to be CDN 20, but MEC has recently lowered prices in $CDN since $CDN is now more expensive): http://www.mec.ca/Products/product_detail.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=676791&P RODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=575205&bmUID=1099088122204 Only one variety (no heel strap), and made in China.
