I decided to go ahead with the Teva...I found a store nearby that had all of the brands mentioned in this thread. The Teva's just seemed to fit my foot better, and didn't slip or bunch up when going uphill or down. The store actually had built a ramp to test the shoes on. Thanks for the help though! I'll be sure to let you all know how they work out...so far they are super comfortable and seem to drain really fast.

On a side note, I was testing the new shoes at home, along with a backpacking fishing rod. I was like a little kid, and couldn't wait to try both out, as they arrived the same day. So, my girlfriend comes home, and there I am, standing in the tub, my running pants unevenly pulled up to mid-thigh. I hadn't had a shower yet, so my hair was nice and messy, and I had my water shoes on, and was playing with a collapsible fishing pole. You could see that , to some degree, she was re-examining the steps in her life that led her to live with this goofball of a man. All I had in response to her stare was "What?"

Her response had me almost fall out of the tub laughing...

"When you said you wanted to get some stuff to go on a backpacking/fishing trip, I didn't realize the trip ended at the bathroom."

So, since we had a good laugh about it, you all can too <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />
