Adjustable Sandals, New and Secondhand

The soles of my sandals have cracked and disintegrated. In Singapore. But the same has happened in London, England. From my internet searches I found that the same happens in the USA.

Adjusting
I love adjustable hook and loop or touch and close or Velcro sandals. I prefer the ones with the hook and look on both the front and back. But I will settle for a buckle at the back and hook and loop at the front.

Feet swell up in the heat. You go from an air conditioned building to the hot outdoors. In summer you need wider shoes for swelling feet.

After a flight your feet swell up.

Removing Shoes In A Hurry
I need sandals which I can remove in a hurry for going through security at airports.

In Asia and worldwide you often have to remove your shoes going into homes and temples.

You also want to replace them in a hurry.

Brands
I have sandals from Steibel (German?) and Hotter (UK). I also discovered on Ebay today the brand Walking Cradles, but the postage from Florida to UK was too great.

Websites

Selfridges (delivers worldwide)
