Favorite shoes/sandals for walking when on vacation?

Just wondering if anyone has recommendations for their most favorite brand/type of walking shoe when on vacation and touring? Thanks!

Teva sandals are the greatest...IMO. Always comfortable and they never give me blisters.

Me too but I wear flip flops whenever it is warm here so they are very comfortable to me. I have several pairs and some are sporty and support the foot.

I fall into the "I'd rather die than wear Croc's" group

Try Yellow Box flip flops. Yellow Box has a huge selection. I probably own 25 pair in different styles. Also, I wear the croc flip flops. Also, check out Reef sandals awesome. Go to the website 6pm.com and check out their deals.

Croc flipflops, Old Navy flipflops, and Havaiiana flipflops. For visiting ruins, Keen sandals. That toe protection comes in very handy.

We love our Ecco's! Deb just had her oldest pair 'refurbished' for their next visit to Playa next month.
