Brashers Supalites are:
Unbelievably light - less than a kg for the pair
Unbelievably soft - especially round the ankles
Comfortable - oh boy, they are just so good. No rushing to get them off at the end of the day. I could sleep in these and they have NEVER given me a blister.
Made from a single piece of leather (well ...
