The airy mesh fabric used in the Lowa Kaloya Vent shoes does not absorb water, and the construction is designed to dry very quickly. A convenient choice for use on boats, when kayaking, summer cottage activities, etc. The heel tab is soft and designed to work in a slip-on style, meaning you can slip your foot in the shoe while leaving the heel tab under your heel. Some shoes like this are not comfortable enough for gathering any distance, but the Kaloya Vent is fine with some longer strolls, too. - Normal fit - EVA foam midsole absorbs shock - Quick laces - Grippy sole
