Bedrock Sandals Cairn 3D

The Bedrock Cairn 3D sandal puts the company's unique and very stable strap design on a thicker and somewhat more contoured midsole than Bedrock's original Cairn. As a result, the Cairn 3D does a better job protecting your feet and is more comfortable for hiking and walking than the related model—and also heavier. With straps that do an outstanding job keeping your feet secure, great traction, and awesome durability, the Cairn 3D rivals and arguably exceeds many of its well-known competitors INTRODUCTION… Full review

Source Men's Gobi

A great sandal. Ideal for everyday use during 365 days a year if the weather lets you. Great on all types of terrain, very long lasting, and easy to clean. I came across these sandals over 12 years ago. Since then they are my summer shoes, and I use them in the winter if the weather lets me. I live in Formentera, Spain, and we have all types of terrain. They are great for walking, trekking, on the beach, casual wear, and I use them on rain days as they are fast drying. I put them on when I start… Full review

Teva Women's Tirra

Lightweight sandal with three points of adjustment. Perfect for walking, hiking, or kayaking. I've worn these sandals for five years and am about to purchase my third pair. These are quite possibly the perfect hiking sandal out there. They are super adjustable, very comfortable, have great traction, have a rubber bottom (cloth underfoot will eventually wear away!), will stay on your foot no matter what, and are fairly good looking for such an industrial shoe.  I've worn this style from Teva for… Full review

OOFOS OOlala Sandal

These are the most comfortable shoes I own. I wear them every chance I get, even now that the rainy season has started in Portland. I was worried that they wouldn't hold up since they're essentially foam, but they still look brand-new after months of hiking through rocks and water, on pavement, and in the desert. The other day I was having some leg/foot pain from a pair of "barefoot" shoes I'd been trying out and remembered that OOFOS are sometimes called "recovery" shoes, so I put these on even… Full review

Keen Men's Uneek

I had similar issues with these sandals last summer. I've barely worn them since. My biggest issue is the blisters caused by the cordage that makes contact with the skin. Fashion faux pas or not...the only way that I can wear these things now is with socks, then, they are "Okay". Seemed like a good idea when I saw them online. The "shock-cordage" that makes up the 'body' is brutal on bare skin. Full review

Keen Men's Uneek

Bought a pair wore them 3 times a have them away. Parachord is ment to be on a persons foot caused blisters and burns on feet. If your feet get wet from sweat or crossing a stream these aren’t the shoes to have on. will not recommend for anyone but a couch potato. The guy I gave mine to has since given them to someone else.

Chaco Men's Z/Volv 2 Sandal

Chaco improved everything I didn't like about the ones I had in 2002. I've worn these for six months each of the last two years and they're the first footwear I go to if it's the high 50s and warmer. That's because they're so comfortable and my feet can breathe. I had two pair of the same in the early 2000s and they sucked. Those were painful to wear due to the self-tightening of the big toe strap to the point of cutting off circulation causing pain. Add to that whatever the material was that made… Full review

Keen Men's Uneek

Nice fashion sandal for light use. I bought five pairs of these, one for myself and the others as gifts. Of the five, I've had to return or exchange three of them because of qc issues. One of them had poorly molded soles which meant there were grooves or little holes along the side of the midsole that were quite noticeable. When I tried to return that pair, I noticed the same thing on the replacement and had to ask for a third one. The next one had spots all over the upper from the adhesive, probably… Full review

Teva Men's Hurricane XLT

These are hardcore. I absolutely love these. They have just the right amount of firmness and cushioning for me. The soles are grippy on all outdoor terrain as well as manmade surfaces like concrete and tile. The straps provide for excellent fit, you can loosen them for casual walking and tighten them up for more strenuous activities. They are also great if you wear ankle supports regularly like I do. I have a pair that I bought in 2013, I've taken them to Malaysia, Cambodia, Vietnam (twice), Myanmar… Full review
