I know this is slightly off topic, but just curious as to why most water activity marketed shoes tend to stick with the yellow and black color scheme?  I had a pair of water shoes years back with Goodyear rubber on the bottom with drainage holes, yellow and black.  I had a pair of Keen water sandals with holes in the toe cover, yellow and black.  Now the Signa is black with yellow accents.  It seems like a very commonly used color scheme for water sports footwear.  Just curious if there is a reasoning behind it or if it is just a coincidence.  Is there anyone in the know with industry insight that can chime in on this one?

My guess is that they tend to be common colors for scuba gear.  I suspect they use black because rubber is commonly black, and they use a lot of black.  Perhaps yellow is a nice high contrast color for under water use?

Not sure this is funny though. My dad scuba dives and would have me write in yellow on his black fins. Easily spotted underwater is my guess if something happened to you. Brown, black, blue and green would blend.

i'm wondering why i'm not running in these
i'm def ground feel guy - i have 3 pairs of seeyas that i run in
to me the seeya had the best ground feel of the vibes imo but this shoe takes the prize now in that category

now the question of course is does it hold up under regular road running workouts - could they hold up for a marathon

i'm gonna give them a spin soon and see

had a great time in them yesterday out and about - they were no worse for the wear

either way - i hope vibram moves the seeya in this even thinner direction with an even better articulated ground feel
