Since introduced in 1995, Mudders have been used by thousands of customers all over the world. Mudders have been featured in major news publications including The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Boston Globe and USA Today, and also demonstrated on the nationally syndicated TV show, "Why Didn't I Think Of That".
Mudders overcome the two difficulties of mud travel: sinking and suction, by copying nature. Many of natures creatures are able to walk quite easily on soft mud. The Great Blue Heron inspired the inventor of Mudders with its ability to widen its foot when it steps down and contract it as the foot is lifting. Mudders work in the same manner.
