They're not as comfortable to wear when wet and it takes a few seconds longer to put them on compared to sandals which makes them less useful as camp shoes.
I found them particularly uncomfortable to put on when they were wet and they don't dry out very quickly. I wore them canoeing all last year--even on a 7 day canoe camping trip--but have since gone back to Chacos since they dry faster and aren't as uncomfortable when wet.
Overall, I find the shoes fun and good for training, but for their price, not that practical. |

| I have been wearing my KSOs as often as possible. I wear them when I camp and just recently on a rocky hike up Bald Mountain. I love the feeling of almost barefoot. They do work different muscles. I would not run in them until my feet are ready for it. Overall I need another pair. |
| Very thin sole and they stink after wearing them for too long. |
| Komodos might be better if you plan on running in a pair. |

Cred: 3 | | Amazing ive never felt more in touch with the earth hiking than i have in these shoes. Climbing trees and jumping cross creeks rock to rock simply amazing |
| Getting used to them ankles sore for a bit but that is expected because you dont use the muscles properly till you where these shoes or go barefoot. |
| None i wear these or chacos on a regular basis. |
