Anyone seen or tried these?
Thinking of replacing my cheap neoprene sailing boots - I think they're Ronstans - this summer and I like the additional support and good soles that these boots look like they have. We don't have much sand where I sail, mostly slippery, sharp rocks! Also, the boots I have seem to fill with a lot of water, more than is needed for the
wetsuit
warming effect, which makes for heavy, sloshy feet (no good). Additionally, the zipper doesn't have a retaining strap or anything and sometimes comes down - almost lost a shoe a few times when swimming.
Can't seem to find even a price - I know Keen's are spendy but people who wear them seem to really like them (including my wide, who wore hers all through pregnancy).

I thought for sure those would cost a fortune...they must be REALLY new. I finally found them in an online store and they're not nearly as expensive as I thought they might be ($60...I thought they'd be twice that):

those are awesome, I bet that store just hit a Goldmine with us crazy cat sailors. wonder how many hits they get overnight?
I dunno. The West Marine sneaker has proven to me to be the best shoe around.
That's not bad at all! Good find Jake, I couldn't find them online anywhere.
Unless the West Marine sneaker has some serious insulation, I don't think it would fly for our 55-degree water...in the summer...
