    I use five fingers a bit, pros and cons for these

    negatives;
    hard to find in NZ now and you do have to get them fitted rather than guessing your size and ordering online.
    you can still stub your toe, it even seems to me like it is easier to do when wearing these for some reason.
    take longer to put on than normal footwear.

    positives;
    Great for rivers as long as you don't stub your toe, and feel dry after about five paces from leaving the water.
    Probably the most grip you would ever have without wearing crampons.
    Very quiet.
    Very light, can be carried as an extra pair of footwear without weighing you down.
    Bagheera and Synthetic like this.
