These sandals - yay or nay?

Keen Rose https://amzn.eu/d/dSI6aKb

I want sandals with a toe box to hide my fugal nails, comfy to walk and sand in all day. Will wear as a teacher who teaches forest school and outdoor activities as well as in the classroom. With and without socks, must be machine washable.

I like the look of these Keen sandals. Do you agree or can I find better?

I'd rather throw my money at treating the foot fungus than buy those.

Edited

Me too!

They should be illegal

I realize they are on the fugly side, but yes, go for it! I had a similar pair years ago

Consider these by Jambu. I had a pair a few years ago and they were fantastic. I don't like to wear open toes when bike riding, so these were my summer go-to's.

It’s really rather pathetic for grown adults to care what silly teenagers think of their clothing.

Show quote history

Our PE teacher in the 60's used to wear a strange athletic peep toe thing in the summer that completely hid her little toes. We all thought she only had 4 toes and admired her for overcoming such a disability to be a games teacher. Teens have always noticed what they wear and that's part of the shit joy to being a teacher.

I used that too, after trying another OTTC one first. This was good. But it was so slow and big toenails grow so slowly.

It makes me laugh when they say that you see results in a few weeks. It definitely takes months to see anything.
