Swiss Army Shoes, heh! | 12:20 p.m. Aug. 21, 2008

I think James Bond was their first customer, but now we can have shoes with flip-out scissors, knives and a can opener!

most of this stuff is sooooo overpriced. From GPS's to watches - there is no way you need to spend $219 for a watch. I can get an equivalent watch that is totally water proof for $49 at Sportsman Warehouse. These shows are fun to go to but the gear pricing is a joke.

Overpriced,

If you think your $49 watch in comparable to a Suunto, Traser, or Swiss Army than you are sadly mistaken. There is a big difference in quality and a big difference how long they last. I am wearing a Traser now that is on its tenth year and haven't changed the battery, cracked the crystal, had any parts fall off, and has gone snorkeling with me six time. You get what you pay for.

These extortionists are back in town? Let's send them to Reno.
