I wear Brooks Ariels....not hiking shoes but running shoes and they are fabulous...along with short gaiters.
I tried using Tevas but I hike in the Sierra where a lot of trails are dusty and it was great to just trek thru water, but then on the other side when the dust got under the straps it rubbed my feet raw...no sandals for me anymore.
