While the crowd eschews felt soles and impresses each other insisting, “I wore rubber back when rubber wasn’t cool “ – note we’ve gone back to the drawing board to re-invent “no-tech” wading…
Gone are those silly laces that neatly strain invasives into your uppers, ditto for the lace eyelet area that traps all the critters, and we’ve reengineered the felt sole to dry faster and grip better with the debut of the Bruce Lee Kung Fu® “Fast Drying Featherweight Sole.” The special Fast Drain© Open Toe design allows you to leave the little bastards where they found you, rather than hosting unwanted hitchhikers.
It beats conventional hi-tech, hi-cost wading shoes as they lack the light weight and positive adhesion offered by the Kung Fu® gripping surface, and are conspicuously absent the deft accent of alloy buckle and fetching faux-leather strapping system.
Mine are so comfortable I wear them around the house – and judging by the many looks received from passing motorists, I’d say these will rival Crocs as the next great stride in outdoors chic.
Big unkempt knobby toes not included.

Last Friday, a small crowd surrounded a coworker’s desk. So I walkd over to see what had drawned all the attention. Sure enough, the coworker had that exact “footwear” up on her computer. The conversation was along the lines of “have you ever seen such ghastly looking sandals.” I walked away not saying a word, which is unheard of.
Never in my wildest dreams would I anticipate not only seeing the damn things on your blog, but reading an admission that you wear them around the house.
You should know that I have no fashion sense at all; I’m strickly a function over style consideration type of guy.
Should I buy a pair just for the Kung Fu grip? A little barge cement and my un-PC felt wading boots might be legal again.
The Kung Fu grip is better than it ever was – but add some studs for good measure.

Where are these “bandals” pictured from? I’d like to buy them!
Thanks!
