ExustarE-SS503 Bike Sandal Shoes

I bought these to replace my original grey ones which had lasted about 12 years. I hoped the latest version would be better. The fit is very good, still nice and wide, comfortable with a stiff sole for cycling. However, the foot is now completely covered with neoprene. This makes it harder to get on, less adaptable (I used to sometimes wear mine with waterproof socks, but I don't think I'll be able to do that), and hotter! When the temperature gets above about 20°C, my feet are hot. The few holes that there are near the sole do let in some air, but they can hardly be called sandals. Also, the straps are far too long and look quite silly sticking out from the edge of the sandals.
