Not sandals that make ya trip, silly, sandals that you take with you ON a trip!
Sarah G. says she climbed Mount Vesuvius in these! Naples by Keene.
See, I could never wear these because I have a super extra short pinky toe that would poke out at just the wrong place on these straps. But I sure can appreciate that lug bottom for a touring excursion and I can speak to the sturdiness and grippiness of Keenes in general.
Here’s a shoe that I like because it has a nice closed toe, which I find much more appealing for travel in cities (cleaner, more protected foot) and more conservative cultures. Paradise by Keene:
My pinky toe would probably still poke out of these but those of you without ridiculous baby toes might like them. I like the color a lot.
Yay, Keene!
Yes, Keen! I wore these on my trip to Norway in May; a lot of walking and not a single blister. I hate shoes anyway, and the open sides made these feel like sandals–that’s how they bill them, too.

I love Keen; they’re very comfortable and well made. REI.com frequently have sales.
