Action sandals are wrong... so wrong.
Jesus would be ashamed of you!
i was thinking something a bit more conservative
Tang, Can I get Briggs II in the UK?
Teva Terra-fi for me every summer.
Which ever you get, when they start to stink, wash em and soak em in white vinegar.
+1 for Keen Newort, but they also do a flipflop style design, albeit rather expensive.
Superb fit - very comfortable.
I agree with Kuco's brother. I swear by those Merrells too. I've had a pair exactly like that for 3 years now. I wear them all summer long - long walks, in the sea, the lot. Superb. Supremely comfortable and hard wearing. Most important of all, Mrs T thinks they look nice too. The only thing I wouldn't do with them is ride a bike..........

You cant get six toes in them 😆
I have a couple of pairs of Oakley sandals, last well and are very comfortable. Dont know if they still do the Smoke one comes in slip on and the other has a heel strap.
Hairychested, I hope ton likes his as much as I like mine 🙂
BTW Keen sandals have nice toe protection.
Merrell Chameleons are great - last ages, my last pair lasted about 6 summers. Done some quite serious walks in them without problems. I've not got a pair of Teva Toachis as I wanted some which were a bit more water friendly- the first pair I took back because some of the stitching came undone, but the second pair have been great. Bit of a stiffer sole than the Merrells but really comfortable.

@brakes:
Don't write off the Birkis. The ones with a further strap at the rear (I think they're the Milan model) don't slip off if they're adjusted properly. They're very comfortable and are certainly what Jesus would wear.
Merrells,speaking as one larger gent to another.
The Keens were the only sandals I could find with toe and heel protection. Kind of useful if you go mountain biking in them.
I'm going to need another pair soon, so what's out there?
My Merrells have been ace and had them a few years. They were designed to get wet and don't rot or fall apart after lots of wandering about in streams, rivers, the sea, etc
Birkenstocks didn't stay on me at first, but they wore in and were fine.
However don't ride your bike on SPDs with them, it breaks the cork. And don't walk a long way in them either.
My fave are these:

Look a bit weird if you have ugly feet but that is a full on Vibram sole unit so they are about 10000000 times better than any other sandals for walking around in for both support and protection on uneven terrain. Also available in wide fittings.
This is the wrongest thread on STW ever. I'm moved to alert the mods.
ourkidsam.................feel the sandal love flush over you mate........... 8)
I'd go fro tevas every time but if you buy some lok around for a good ppricve.I paid £ 80 for a pair and then saw them in winfileds for £ 30 a week later.
DGOAB Mrs Grips has a pair of those.. Merrels aren't they?
yes they are... you can tell from the tan lines? 😯 8)
Flying ox , where do you get those from ? they look fun.
Yes, but only cos Mrs Grips has a pair!
trout- Quite a lot of keen stuff is only available stateside, if you select your country in the box on the website, all of what you see is available. They are increasing the euro stock all the time due to demand. Drop them a mail or you could buy in the states, quite a few stores ship to the UK. hth
not them birkentock things, co they dont stay on.
Mine don't. Do you have particularly slanted feet?
I always find that, no matter how nice the sandals are, and no matter what material they are made from, they make my feet smell very, very badly. 😕
these are the best sandals I've ever had teva terra fi

I thought I'd lost my Teva's, couldn't find them anywhere.
Then my Mum brought them up recently, she'd found them in my old room! Just in time for my holiday next week. 🙂
Agree with toys19 ^^, they're so comfy!
Saxon - I've had that problem with every pair except the Chacos.
