I read in a tech magazine about a new design of boot with a convex sole - a bit like a segment of a car tyre in fact. Has anybody heard about them getting to market? Just curious.

Sounds interesting Jake.
I would have thought concave would be better for grip, convex would encourage your ankles to twist....the thought makes me cringe!
Keep us posted if you hear more!

There are a couple of boot manufacturers who make their boots slightly convex from front to back so that rou sort of roll as you step into and out of each pace. I think Brasher is one of them.
