Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"Whether you're on the deck or in the river, the Mion Men's Current Sandal gives you incredible comfort and performance with a construction that produces a customized fit for each individual. Slide your feet in and pull on the Super Structure Cord. This climbing-grade spiral cord tightens individual ribs around your foot in critical areas to give you stability in any condition. After about 12 hours of use, the anatomically-shaped Ergomorphic Footbed actually reproduces the shape of your foot into the sole to give you a personalized, custom-fit hence the name Mion (pronounced My-Own). The Current Sandal's lightweight, 100% waterproof construction, and super sticky Gripstick outsole mean you get incredible traction and performance over wet and dry land."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Setting new performance standards for the sport sandal market, the Mion Current men's sandal delivers feather-light comfort no matter where your adventure takes you. No longer do you have to wade to shore knowing that hours will pass before your sandals dry, the innovative Mion Current sandal provides a welcome solution that improves comfort and weight when compared to similar brands in the same scenario. In place of straps, Mion's durable Super-Structure sheds water and wraps around the foot and toes, providing a protective yet airy cage for your foot. A continuous Super-Structure Cord traces all the ribs, linking them together for a precise fit whether relaxed or firmly locked down using the instep cord-lock. The Mion Current sport sandal's grip is second to none, utilizing their Gripstick rubber technology that exudes sticky characteristics when faced with wet conditions and holds on tight when racing across dry surfaces."

From UpsideOver:
"This is the one that started it all! Mi n's iconic original, the Mion Current Kids' Sandal, is the standard for comfort by which all performance sandals are measured. It is total customized comfort. The 360 lacing enables a personalized fit for wide or narrow feet. These shoes protect the toe, are incredibly adjustable, can be worn with socks or bare feet and float when they are accidentally dropped overboard! Mion's sandals are injection molded, instead of stamp molded, reducing waste. To see the environmental impact of the creation of one pair of Currents, see the Technical Specs tab."

From EMS:
"An eye-poppingly inventive sandal with an Ergomorphic footbed that permanently takes the shape of your foot within 12 hours 1 for a perfectly customized fit. Innovative lacing system with a climbing-grade pull cord that wraps around the entire foot several times 1 just pull and lock down the cord to mold the sandal more snugly to your foot. Sculpted upper EVA fingers surround the foot in critical areas for greater comfort, greater distribution of pressure, and better responsiveness. Superior traction with non-marking rubber soles that are razor-siped in four directions; as the sole flexes, deep QuadCut lugs break into a network of mini-lugs to grip securely on any surface, wet or dry. Made from some of the lightest but toughest materials available. 100% water compatible sandals literally cannot absorb or retain water, so your foot stays comfortable in all conditions. Mion is an environmentally forward-thinking company that uses renewable energy and solar power in manufacturing. These run a bit big so we recommend sizing down a full size when ordering."

Women's Current Sandal
Reviewed by Evelyn, Mar 08, 2008

"This is such a great sandal! I am a commuter and I use these running to and from buses and trains, I also use them walking the dog in mountains, and at the beach. I really needed a sandal which would provide some toe protection and traction in the mountains and something that would be comfortable walking stairs at work (rather than leave my heels on) and at the beach."

Men's Current Sandal
Reviewed by Lynn Rhodes, Aug 08, 2007

"This sandal is incredibly comfortable, stable, and even nice to jog in. It works like a dream in water and the way that it molds to your foot is ingenious. One caution though, I found the arch support to be almost totally non-existent. I can see a small curvature of the arch under the in-sole, but it's not enough to stop my foot from rolling inwards and ultimately becoming incredibly uncomfortable after long periods of wear at a time."

"They are so ugly that they have to be real functional and comfortable; and they are! Martin Keen has done it again. It's a great watersport shoe; completely hydrophobic and 4-way non-marking traction. MION is also a green company."

"Very unique and very comfortable! Great water sandal. Totally hydro-phobic so it doesn't absorb any water. Footbed contorts to foot nicely after short wearing. Great protection and grip. Very functional product."
