I suppose in Singapore, it's quite ok to wear sandals.

When I used to hike in the hills in Malaysia, it was always proper shoes. That's why I feel more "comfortable" in shoes. Leeches, ants, centipedes, even snakes are potential hazards. Also, the high profile shoes will minimise sprained ankles when walking on uneven ground.

Sandals are definitely cooler and lighter, but if you're going shooting in Malaysia, I would definitely recommend proper footwear. :thinking:
