[pct-l] Seal Skin Socks and sandals

[jeffmoorehead1 at cox.net (Jeff Moorehead)]

I'm wondering what sandals you use? people here were talkin about the 
strategy of just keeping your trail shoes on during stretches of frequent 
creek fordings-- it would make more sense to me to have waterproof sandals 
(or 'water shoes') that would drain and dry more easily, coupled with 
waterproof socks for this. what brand/model of hiking sandal is rugged 
enough for hard trail as well as frequent immersion?
