They look just like my gardening clogs, maybe I'll try them, I hate getting mud all over my feet, LOL.

I just took a look, the price is right, 10 euros a pair, not quite sure what the eco-friendly materials are, Latex plus cardboard from what it sounds like?

I just had one of my gymnastic balls pop when it got too close to the baseboard heating and melted. It seems to be made from a similar material. Maybe I should play with it with some matches...

mmmm, they are ugly and the toe box looks tight. Does anyone have thoughts about duct tape shoes? Surely they could be carried home without difficulty (maybe duct taped to my waist?).

How long could you use the biodegradable shoes until they fall apart during use? I don't think I could just jettison shoes that have utility (cheap swamp yankee) so their ability to rot on their own has little appeal. Oh, and they are ugly.
