Shimano does make a cycling sandal (their product id = SH-SD60) for mountain bike cleats/pedals. I've heard of a lot of folks who tour in these sandals, but I don't have any personal experience.
For me, sandals have 2 strikes against them: 1) I prefer really stiff shoes and I've been really happy with my Sidi Doms (yes, I know, there are less expensive shoes out there, but these have a very stiff sole which is an absolute requirement for me, and they are also the only shoes that I can get my very high-arched foot into!), and 2) On those really hot days sandals sound enticing - but I sunburn really badly (enough that I always use SPF 30 sunscreen) and I'd prefer to keep my feet covered.
I got over the tan line thing years ago...
