Calusa XCR: featured in the Good Gear section of Adventure Travel magazine, May/June 2008

"Outdoor footwear specialists brasher has brought out this pair of sturdy lightweight shoes to answer the call of multi-activity adventurers everywhere.  The Calusa comes in men's and women's versions, looks smart enough to wear around town, on the trail or whilst travelling, and offers the kind of performance you'd expect from one of Britain's most popular walking boot manufacturers.  They're made using Gore XCR so they'll help keep your feet dry, and the rugged tread on the outsole provides a sure grip on all conditions.  In wear, they've got a slightly narrower forefoot fit than most brasher footwear, designed with the quintessential British foot shape in mind, but are still certainly not narrow, and they hug and contour the foot well, giving superb support.  We'd  be happy using these for most lightweight treks, as well as for more general use.  Try them with brasher's new range of socks too."
