Look at the new balance MT10's. I have a pair strapped to my pack on every hunt -great traction, light weight, comfy and a soft feel to sneak in close.

Look like they might do the trick. I prefer a pair of Five Fingers.

I tried the five fingers and didn't care for them. may have to head back to REI and try a pair of these.

5 fingers are great, but the MT10's you can leave your socks on and go quick.

Brooks pure grits! awsome lightweight shoe that has some bite and dries almost instantly

The NB MT10 Minimus were the next purchase on my list but I'm considering these now. I'll wait to see if you can find them in your size and give them a try. Keep us updated.
I don't know if I like the no laces concept. The whole reason I want to get rid of my crocs is because my feet slide around like crazy when I actually need to use them and create horrible hot spots on my toes.

Slim, get the 10's and put a pair of elastic laces on. Easy on/off.

Take a look at the New Balance MT110 Trail Running shoe. a little more comfort than the MT10 and a better sole for grass and lose gravel. I love the Five fingers thats all I wear when lifting, cross training or kicking around. I hunted in a pair last year and they did not make it 5 days. I will be hunting in the NB MT110 Trail Running shoe.

Well I ended up with the NB andnever did find my size in those others but didn't look to hard either. Here is what I went with at 9.6oz and they are extremely comfortable. http://www.dickssportinggoods.com/p...cp=4406646.4413987.11400088.11025371.11948887

I tried the five fingers but they weren't comfy enough so I got a pair of Merrell Barefoot trail runners and they have been quite comfy for the 12 or so miles I have on them.

Can you please weigh these for me when you get them?

Just weighed my size 10's and one shoe is 9.5oz so a total weight of 19oz. The specs are decieving but man are they comfy and should dry quick.
Fyi... I tried the MT10 and they really didn't feel a whole lot liter and I will use these for running, hiking, camp and maybe stalking.
