I am not concerned at all with the style (as I am carrying business shoes and change when required). Basically, these shoes are for just for the trip: I am using my travel shoes on the way to the airport/train station, during the trip/flight till the hotel, and for short walk around or in the hotel.

Ideally, I would buy some new Maui Fold, but they are not sold anymore and so far, I haven’t found any shoes which seems as good (to me) as the Maui were.

So, I am asking for your help, do you know some shoes that could fit my requirements (comfortable, waterproof, with good isolation from the ground, and most important easy to put on and to remove).

If you have any advice, please share.

Thanks
Franck
Welcome to Flyertalk. I'm a huge fan of Mephisto and Ecco. I have worn Mephisto loafers for a while in a couple different styles. I wouldn't call them waterproof though. I also have a pair of Ecco Trac II low cut shoes that are very comfortable and completely waterproof (Gore-Tex liner) but they tie on versus loafers. They are quite easy to take on and off, however.
