As a cut foot can ruin a trip, they're too light for my use. On trips with known crossings I either use trail runners with lightweight neoprene socks or I have my Crocs, which are designed for wading and have a full back and adjust tight on your feet. I remove the insole from my trail runners when I cross, so have dry socks and insoles. I've also walked my trail runners dry, but prefer a little more comfort. I'd wear the Flopeeze around a clean camp, but I'd rather save even their light weight if they serve no other purpose.
