I like to hike in Sandals. I've used Bite hiking sandals but alas they are 
not made anymore. I used Keen H20's for a few hundred miles on the AT and 
was considering getting the Keen Arroyo's as they have better tread. Has 
anyone used them. I like everything about them but wonder how long they 
might last. I actually got maybe 1500 miles with the Bites. I where socks 
with them.
