I use it on every canyon i go :)
This shoe feels true to size, but since the toe box is so large, your feet aren't stable, even cinched down with the straps. They feel fine when rappelling, but any hiking soon becomes painful (blisters!), especially when the shoes are wet. Also, the hard plastic buckle seems vulnerable to breakage. I do like the neoprene ankle protection and support.
[...] I wore the Canyoneer II's on a 16 mile Zion Narrows hike which is about 65% in the river up to thigh high water, on none stop river rock. My feet had no problems. I just returned from hiking the Paria Canyon river (also a 16 mile hike). I used Keen's. I had to constantly remove them to wash away painful gravel. My feet were sore for 3 days! Wish I had taken the Canyoneer II's with me!

I purchased these shoes for Canyoneering however after wearing them around the house I decided that they would not work for a long canyoneering trip or even on the approach. Although the vibram soles are great on rocks, having no arch support could cause great discomfort to the feet on long trips. I cant even say these shoes are actually comfortable.
If you spend time in water, this is the only option for a canyoneer shoe.
