The Zemgear shoes could double as water shoes though. ....

Swanny - were the zemgear pretty durable on the soles?  Would they offer enough protection/grip to wade a stream in?

You could wade through a stream in them no problem I think, since rocks tent to be round and smooth.. I wouldn't hike a trail in them though.
