I need some shoes for holiday - for beach, pool, general ambling etc. I can't walk in flip flops and am not generally keen on sandals/open toe shoes. They also need not to hurt for three weeks before I can wear them every day. Crocs would probably be ideal were it not for the fact that I think they are just too weird to consider. I would like a modicum of style so that the french don't laugh at the silly english person. Can anyone advise?
