Hi, my name is Mark and I'm a Chamelon addict. Since my 10 year old daughter told me I should buy a pair (because they looked cool) when they first hit the market several years ago, I have purchased five pairs. Right now I'm wearing the Chamelon II Stretch and have a new spare pair tucked away in closet.

The shoe is light, tight, and slips on and off with ease. I live in Montana and walk between 3-5 miles a day (my dog gives no days off) on mountain trails in this shoe and find the sole aggresive enough to guarantee good footing on any surface short of slick ice. The shoes hold up well and I average over 1000 miles of hard walking per pair. I also use them for everyday wear. My feet stay dry in all conditions and by the time the "shoelace" breaks they are ready for retirement.
