Title: Not good for kayaking
Product review: I bought these after reading reviews saying how good they are. While the shoe feels good to wear and I love the quick tie system and the option to collapse the heel, the buckle of the heel adjustment strap makes the shoe unusable for me. I bought them to use in kayaking. But when I place my feet on the foot pegs in the kayak, the side of each foot presses up against the side of the kayak and the buckle is in between my foot and the side of the kayak. For very short paddles, it might not be a problem, but for adventure races where the paddle can last several hours, I am left with a very painful area where my foot has been pressing against the buckle.... Not sure how it could be designed to prevent this, but I can't use this shoe for anything else...
