A Solution for Wet Weather

August 17th, 2009 | By Kristyn Thoburn | Filed in AK PRODUCTS & SERVICES, Gear

It has been an extremely wet and rainy summer for most of Canadians this year. Most are wondering when summer is actually going to show up and when they are going to be able to get outside. Not wanting to stay indoors for any length of time, I dug into my arctic kit and pulled out my NEOS overshoes. They are like a waterproof shell for your shoes. I typically have used them in the arctic during the spring melt around our camp because I prefer to wear my hiking shoes instead of rubber boots. For those of you who have never seen these types of “boots”, they are definitely unique. Wear whatever type of shoes you like and then slip over these boots to keep them dry and clean. Walk through mud…splash in puddles…your feet stay dry and you can wear your own comfortable shoes. When you are out of the muck, just pull them off. They are super light and can be rolled up and tossed in your backpack or easily kept in the trunk of your car for next time.
