A little loosy goosy for any distance walking but ok for what I use 'em for.

I just do not like the feel of plastic shoes and they seem a little
too loosey goosey. The ones I had may have been too big tho. It just
felt like a twisted ankle, waiting to happen.

Crocs are easy to slip on and off if you just need foot protection
briefly (like for walking across a hot deck or going across a gravel
road). They are also good for landing on the beach because if you get
sand caught in them you can rinse it out quickly. Of course they also
dry very fast because they absorb no moisture. They are my first
choice if I'm going to be in and out of the water a lot but not
walking very far.

I'll follow up tomorrow. Wife had PF, and the local football coach
recommended Clogs. I will get the brand from her. They helped a lot and
are easy to on and off. Do not know if a water model.

Which one of you spelled loosey goosey wrong?

Look at Keen hiking sandals.

http://www.keenfootwear.com

They have a range of products from Croc-like to something along the lines of
Teva.

I looked at those. How do they deal with salt water and can you slip
them on without tying?

I've had them in fresh and salt and had no problems. There's no tying, but I have to
pull up the back with the little tab. I like 'em.

That's great, but what is your preferred bolt carrier group for an AR15?
