From Backcountry.com:
"The Salomon Men's Techamphibian Shoes make a smooth transition between land and water ideal for river guides, kayakers, or anyone else tapping into their inner amphibious nature. These technical water shoes protect your feet like a shoe, yet drain like a sandal. The synthetic mesh upper and Quickfit lacing won't absorb water, so you don't have to carry around extra weight until your shoes dry. The adjustable, convertible heel folds out of the way when you need a slip on for a quick jaunt out of your tent in the middle of the night. The Techamphibian Sandal's Contagrip sole grips slippery rocks or dirt to keep you upright."
From REI:
"Equally at home on land or in water, the Salomon Tech Amphibian shoes are great for pursuits like river running and canyoneering. Adjustable, collapsible backs let you wear these with neoprene booties/socks if you choose. Kevlar quick-lace system provides secure, non-slip fit. Drainage ports ensure easy escape for water inside shoes. Contagrip® 2 rubber outsoles deliver optimal performance on mixed terrain. Lightweight, quick-drying synthetic/mesh uppers offer support and durability."
From RockCreek:
"Salomon's Tech Amphibian is the essential shoe for professional river guiding and canyoning. This is the ultimate all purpose amphibious footwear. An adjustable, collapsible back can be worn with a neoprene bootie or sock. The Kevlar quick lace provides a secure, non-slip fit. The non-woven air mesh and drainage ports enhance the liquid experience, allowing water to escape and your shoes to dry out quickly. Click here to see the Men's Tech Amphibian"

I bought the shoes a week prior to the trip and wore them every day to help break them in, though it wasn't needed; the shoes are very malleable."

Lots of ventilation, water drainage which is great!
The insoles are not attached very well, mine come out every time I take them off I need some tape or something.
They SMELL. I used them in a lake kayaking and they some how got REALLY funky."
