Your Favorite Sandals

[Irulan]

I wouldn't buy those. I saw two pair of those literally fall apart on our first week in the Grand Canyon.

I'm old school. Still wear Birkenstocks. Often with socks.

Teva Olowahu Flip-Flops

These are my favorite sandals. I also have an older pair of Teva Dozers, that I just love for hiking, the beach, around the house.... Unfortunately, the newer model Dozers are not as good.

I'm a chacos girl, but the newer ones barely have enough strap to cinch tight enough (my pair from 2002 has different lenghts on the webbing vs adjustable part). Also would recommend the single-strap ones over the webbed ones with the two skinnier straps. Those are cute but chafe a lot more when they're wet.

Can't wear Keens b/c my feet are too low volume but they look really comfy.

I can't walk in flip flops. I have no idea why. I've tried wearing them but I have to shuffle in order to keep them from falling off. Every now and then I think its a good idea to wear a pair, I make it about 10 feet of shuffling and scootching before I give up and go barefoot.

I have a pair of Merrell Sandals (Bassoon or a similar style) that I love. They are not the most fashionable but are very comfortable!

I love rainbow flip flops - but since I hurt an ankle tendon they aggravate the injury. I do wear my five fingers and love them - but I really want a free toe solution Chaco may end up being the best - I just find myself wishing for a thinner sole now....

Awesome! Thank you!! Those are all in the realm of what I was looking for. I'm sort of tempted by the Huaraches. They're pretty cool

Out of all the ones I posted, the Huaraches are the only ones I actually own and I do like them. Their new pre-formed soles are nice and way more 'finished' looking than the first pair I have where I had to cut the soles myself.

Keens and Tevas. For "dress up" Danskos.

I use to live in Animal flip flops all year but recent years I seem to trip or fall over 'nothing'! So decided to be more careful, keeping Animal flip flops for beach or indoors. Seeing this thread was perfect, gave me a few ideas.

Since I have started walking far more, I wanted sandasl I felt 'safe' in, so bought:

Am so pleased, only cost $16 so have ordered a second pair.

So thanks to all comments on this thread.

I haven't worn sandals in ..over a decade or more.

I don't cycle in sandals and when I walk around off the bike, it's in running shoes.

I have Birkenstock Kairos in a couple different colours: http://birkenstockusa.com/products/women/sandals/Kairo

The US website doesn't show that blue and red patent are also available.

Kairos are quite comfortable to walk in and also support your feet well on bike pedals. They won't slip off your feet like Gizehs.
