As much as I rake Crocs over the coals you'd never expect to see me in a pair...and you NEVER will. However, I'm wearing these shoes from MION today despite them being so many of the same things I HATE about Crocs. I just have a bit of a thing for these even as, dare I say, Crocesque as they are. One obvious advantage is they're somewhat adjustable using MION's unique "Super Structure Cord" lacing system which radially envelops the shoe while anchored near the toe and at the heel, with the slack is taken up by a small tensioner. The footbeds are very comfortable and supportive relative to other offerings in this type of footwear and I feel I could walk up a wall these soles are so grippy. So nice work once again Martin Keen (actually pronounced Maaaah-tee?), not only another great shoe but another stellar brand, what's next?

MION seems to be great brand. I will see, wether it is possible to get them in Germany.
Good and interesting blog.
