My vote is for sandals for messing about, you will never find me far from a trusted pair of timberland boots - despite the popularity with urban yoofs etc they are one of the very few boots I have found that are:
- cool enough even in tropics
- pretty well waterprrof
- dont fall apart in a years abuse
- can be scrubbed up to look half presentable under trousers
- can take a good long walk
Only thing I found comparable is lightweight Chris Brasher boots which are also super. Also never found them too rigid for long drives.
