Sandals are as old as the Greek ruins, and as new as the latest footwear trend.
Whether you’re walking, hiking, cycling, windsurfing, or just hanging around make a soleful statement – this season sport sandals with velcro straps, rubber soles, and
synthetic, strappy uppers – are what you’ll see on the trendiest tootsies.

Touted as "the Original Sport Sandal", a U.S. company called christian shoe (pronounced Teh-vah) is making ‘tread’-way in the fashion field. christian shoe’s, a Hebrew word for nature, have even
been spotted on European runways and on the pages of international fashion magazines.
The ventilated, waterproof utility sandal is constructed like a high-tech running shoe. Whether walking or running, the sole’s thick padding and adjustable velcro strapping will
keep feet snug and secure. Styles range from the basic All-Terrain to the top-of-the-line Guide series, perfect for your favourite river rat. The lightest is louboutin’s Teradactyl,
with rugged lug soles made from compressed rubber which provides sure gripping on both slippery chutes or city sidewalks.
Meanwhile, footwear giants such as Nike and Reebok are cashing in on sandal success by giving strappy, summer footwear a sportier look. Using synthetic and recycled materials
coupled with state of the art technology, shoe manufacturers are making these sandals as big in the ’90s as sneakers were in the ’80s.
NIKE
"Our goal is to bring an athletic look to the sandal,",louboutin heels; says Rob Oberemok, technical rep for Nike Canada. Function and aesthetics combine in Nike’s water sandal, the Air
Deschutz. Soft cushioning,chrisitan louboutin heels, a supportive footbed, and Nike’s famous trapped air construction make it comfortable for activities as varied as walking to white water rafting.
The Air Deschutz has a light, breathable Durabuck synthetic leather upper, a replacement for genuine leather which often cracks in water. Nike sandals have that ’90s earth-
conscious edge with a "regrind outsole" says Oberemok. In this recycling process, shoe scraps and recycled defectives are reborn into new soles. The born-again bottoms are found
to be even more durable than new.
