Cory gave me a pair of Native Jeffersons about five years ago, and ever since, I hardly wear any other kind. They’re made of the same kind of rubber as Crocs and, in my opinion, look nicer. I never wear socks with them, but my feet don’t stick like they would if I wore traditional shoes without socks. They are great for going through TSA checkpoints — no laces, just slip them off. I have about five pairs in different colors. Once a month or so I run them all through the dishwasher to clean them.
