Like a sneaker
I needed a creek boot that would fit in my boat with my big feet. They remind me more of a sneaker than a boot but take up less room up around my footblock. I've walked some rocky stuff so far and they seem to be holding up well. The tread grip is great on anything I've walked or climbed so far. I wear a neoprene sock inside them for best comfort and warmth as they will both drain water but allow fresh (cold) water in.

Not that great...
Bought this shoe in preparation for a trip to Mexico. I knew the location we were going was rocky and so shoes would be much better than sandals. After the 5 day trip, these shoes had a hole in the neoprene on the top of the shoe, and the toes were beginning to peel back. The straps designed to keep your feet secure cause sore spots on the top of your heel, even after repeatedly loosening the straps. The quick release buckles will stick if they are not perfectly lined up when you close them, resulting in a very difficult opening of the buckle-you have to squeeze the tabs and pull so hard it feels like they are going to break. These are the types of problems I would expect with a $20 pair of shoes. I will be returning them. Also, they seem to run wide. I have a narrow foot, but the fit seemed extra sloppy.

NRS stands behind their products
First pair of these I had, the sole started coming off the shoe by the third time I'd worn them. I contacted NRS and sent them back for inspection and NRS sent me a new pair. So far the second pair has performed well but I can't help but look for other options considering how quickly the first pair starting falling apart. Shoe itself gets a 2 star rating from me, NRS gets four for an overall average rating.

Great shoe for canyoneering
These shoes were my best friend in Parunuweap Canyon. I walked,waded and climbed in them and they were perfect. They were comfortable, had a great grip, and even after a lot of abuse, looked like new after the big adventure. I can hardly wait to wear them again!
