another revelation: because of tender tootsies and the rocky CB shores, I tried the Atan's in my crocs, they fit :twisted: no problem, a great low tide solution :idea:

Kus, is it about time to get an order in again?

I love my Atan ankle summer booties and would like to get some winter ones now and a replacement summer set (they are super comfy, soft and natural feeling, but will no doubt "break down" a little faster - or that is how they "feel" anyway because it feels as if there is nothing on).

I still have lots of stock from the last order and won't be placing one in the near future, sorry. It's a bit of a trick/involved to get them from France to USA and then here.... Long story.

But I can put you down on a future pre-order. That helps me a lot. As to the wear on the booties, I find they last between 70 and 90 sessions and for me that's roughly a year. I'm sure they last a lot longer for other folks. Yes, the barefoot feel is awesome and that's what sets these booties apart. Glad you like them :twisted:

Crocs. Good plan! Feet were hurting last CB low tide session. One trip is ok but multiple trips on sharp rocks and stubbing the toes. Ouch. Of course I would have to get back to where I was wearing the Crocs :roll:

crocs attach easily to the mast foot with a simple strap. Mrs Tempy has been doing that for years. It looks a little goofy, but then so does walking around with atan booties and crocs!

Hi Gang- I am clearing out some of the remaining ATAN "barefoot" booties, I have some sizes and odd round toe left but mostly split toe (Maddison) size 4 (men's 11-12.5) and also the odd Madi (split and round, summer bootie, same thickness, just covers angle)

These were imported to the US and then imported to Canada and are a pain to get shipments for so I am discontinuing them unless duties change with Covid :roll:

$88 Rollback price, all shipping/taxes/brokerage etc. included!

I will add the inventory list shortly :idea:
