    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    Super light . Even walked out of the Waipakahi in them one time with a full pack just to see if I could.
    Do they have a model name ?
    Just did a search, but couldn’t find anything that looks like those .

    I've got a pair of keens like that but they are much heavier than my crocs also a real cunt for getting sticks and small stones in them, granted you could easily carry a pack with them on, but why would you if you had your boots ?
    Just so easy to slip the crocs on.
    Each to their own though

    The cheap beach feet from the Warehouse are okay. Nice and light and take up very little space.

    I would give something like these a go but it’s Crocks for me but only because I’m size 14 and nothing Chinese fits.

    Something like this, light and easy to pack. I don't like jandals.



    Full disclosure. I wear Crocs all the time.

    Would have had trouble crossing the Waipakahi multiple times in crocs and didn't get my boots wet.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    Its a good idea to have round camp footwear that can double as boots in case your boots crap out. I discovered that on day 5 of a 10 day trip when one of my boot soles was ripped off on a river crossing. Five days tramping in one jandal and one boot ain't funny!

    I use $8 warehouse crocs. They weight practically nothing and at that price they can double as emergency firestarters.
