My main purpose for these is wading creeks/rivers for fishing with no waders, just shorts. I tried neoprene socks but they tended to let gravel in as they did not fill up the space between sock and top of the shoe. Gravel guards or short gaiters would probably work...however, I found a heavy wool sock to work well and prevents most gravel coming in.

I was wading granite Sierra streams and they performed very well on both wet and dry granite and are a pretty good shoe for hiking in....but a for super long hike ins, I used my regular hiking shoes.

I have had several models of the Golite. Got these in Feb. of 08. Initially, seemed pretty good walking and jogging around the town. Decided to use them for my primary approach and tramping shoe in NZ this past March. Mistake. Okay on mild tracks but after a week the treads started to de-laminate but still serviceable.

Then on a long approach for a peak climb they were too tippy on no slope talus and rubble, say compared to what I usually would wear....a montrail or vasque. I relegated them to my pack, to pad my coffee press, for the hike out in alpine boots.
