As befits an item so closely identified with warriors, sandals for the male wearer are a double-edged sword: On the upside, comfort. On the down, potential for profound embarrassment.
The case for wearing them? Simple. The more the mercury goes up, the more one's piggies want to roam.
For Joe Cambareri, the CFO of VanthedgePoint, a New York City-based hedge fund services firm, nothing is more important than having happy feet.
''I love wearing sandals in the summer because my feet can breathe,'' he says. ''Being able to throw on a pair of 'toe-exposing' shoes and just walking out the door in the summertime is awesome.''
So far, so good.
