Apparently everyone else just defaults to the norm for this. That's unacceptable in my book. I'm way more low key than it seems here though. I don't own any bright colored gear like the ones I posted for the record. Dark or earth tones...

It's not a default. There's a reason it's a norm.

I plan on getting a pair of these before the start of snapper week. Tired of busting my arse in flippy floppys and crocs.

I found them to be uncomfortable, but probably because I wear a size 13-14 and the columbia 13 was a little tight.

That's generally a personality issue. often associated with self-image.

I wear a 13-14 also, the columbias run a little small?

Eta: check out power drain II, they go up to 15.

I really couldn't care less what other people do or wear. Never owned a pair of crocs and there's a whole bunch of other fads that I've completely skipped over but I also don't like skater looking shoes or chuck taylor looking shoes personally. Yours in that color don't bother me at all but I wouldn't wear them because they wouldn't look right on me.

thanks for the input. Looks like I'll be ordering me some. Anywhere local to BR where I can find some?

I have a pair and enjoy them. They are really light and comfortable. I turned my current pair into my everyday shoe, so now I need a new pair for fishing.

Nope. Again, Please go find your own shoe dude. Also, can you ban rhall at LASM? He's an alter douchebag.

Love the drainmakers. Very comfortable to wear for a long day of fishing. They start to stink like crazy though. Mine smell twice as bad as my boat shoes. I usually throw them in the wash with the rest of my smelly arse clothes after a weekend of fishing.

When you wash that smelly crap add a some white vinegar to the wash. You can thank me later.

It gets the stank out of all my sun shirts.

Ingot mine last year at Avademy in BR. I like them but they will get funky on you with a quickness. Keep them cleaned and aired out after each use and you should be good.

I would buy them again.

I'm thinking about picking up a pair of these. Don't know how well they will dry though.
