I've been thinking about trying these for a while now. I like my Montrail shoes because they are extremely breatheable, dry quickly, and don't have too much padding or support to interfere with what I consider to be natural functions of the foot. So why not go all the way and try a sandal?
Which model do you guys or gals use? My instinct would be to try something like a Hurricane 3 (

http://www.teva.com/ProductDetails.aspx?g=m&categoryID=759&productID=6148&model=Omnium) which I assume would gather less debris?
It's been a while since I've had a pair of Tevas, but I would guess that the sole is good for avoiding pressure blisters/injuries from sharp scree or gravel. (Which is something the Montrails don't do so well, but I'm a heavier guy.) Do you find that to be true?
Thanks,
