Hello everyone. I have been using crocs (standard issue) as camp shoes for years now. The only time i don't take them along, is when i'm in a really muddy or wet area, that will require multiple creek crossings. I use sandals for that, and just hike in them. The crocs are lighter ( i like light...a lot), relatively inexpensive, provide toe protection, are quick to put on and off, can be used to cross creeks, are really comfortable, and lets face it folks.....very sexy!!!
With a flip-flop (as a Thru hike, not the footwear) in mind, i must admit that i cant see wearing crocs in those wet areas of New England/Maine, they're just not stable footwear. Can anyone suggest a good lightweight sandal that is comfortable and could be hiked all day in if it were needed? I cant wear the thong type, they drive me insane.
Thanks in advance-
