For over-all foot (and booty) protection, I recommend a full shoe rather than sandals. Most everyone I paddle with just buy larger shoes. The size would depend on how many layers and what type of layers you choose to wear under the latex. My regular shoe size is a womens 5-1/2 but my winter water shoes are never smaller than a 7 to accommodate my nice, thick wool socks and the excess latex.
