My favorite "shoes" for everything including commuting are the Chaco Flip leather flip flops. Their only shortcoming is the fact that the strap is made out of a double layer of very thin nubuck, and my first pair cracked after 2 years of almost no-stop daily use, despite judicious use of Proofide. The similar Cordonazo seems to have thicker leather straps.
But Chaco replaced them under warranty, so I'll keep wearing them. Utterly comfortable, just the right amount of arch support for me, and no plastic-induced stink. When these wear out and don't get replaced, I'll try some of these Piper Sandals: handmade by a family in Texas, $120, and they do custom as well: http://www.pipersandals.com/ For longer rides I use Chaco plastic sandals, or Keen sandals when heading through thorny underbrush or when it gets cold (<60 F).
