Crocs as Camp Shoes

Bushwalking gear and paraphernalia. Electronic gadget topics (inc. GPS, PLB, chargers) belong in the 'Techno Babble' sub-forum.

TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

I recently picked up a pair of the land and sea H20 "ultimate wet shoe" for use in my sea kayaking adventures. Good for in and out of the water, around camp, rocks, oysters etc. They dry super quick, probably pack down similar to crocs, but much better in terms of protection and support and only $20. I got mine from my local dive shop in Newcastle. Not sure about weight (not so critical for kayak camping).

The one-moment shoes look like a nice compact option. Would be nice to have a "spare" pair of dry shoes that can be shoved into a space in one of the hatches.
