Ecco Helsinki. If you are a shoe guy and not a boot guy, they are the ultimate airline pilot shoe. Comfy as hell, cool, lightweight, and hold up well. Also don't set off metal detectors.
You can usually find them on sale for $120 or less.

I'm starting to see a lot of uncovered AM OT trips go to PM reserves by using day 1 as a DH only, min rest, then a 0400L report the next morning. Although legal, this is just another way the company will do whatever it can to screw you and I over to cover trips. It really doesn't even matter what you bid anymore. For those of us on a natural PM schedule and bid accordingly, this is an absolute kick in the junk.
