Where can I buy sports sandals with closed toes?

Hi all, I'm looking for a model of some sports sandals with closed toes like those in the attached photo. Any recommendations? I have found some at Rendo by Sickleyield [http://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/index.php?ViewProduct=80010 for example], but would like just to get the single pair if I could. I can convert from Daz gen1, 2, 3 and 4 models, as well as G2F and any models included with Poser 10, so sandals for any figures in that category would work. Thanks.

    Have you taken a look at the footwear category in the store? http://www.daz3d.com/clothing-accessories/footwear. That are a bunch of different styles in there

    I have indeed checked out the Footwear section of the Daz store. Lots of Birkenstocks, flipflops, clogs and high-heeled sandals, but none of the type shown in the picture above.

    Yeah casual foot wear is limited, always has been, I can tell you from experience that they don't seem to sell too well as a stand alone product, which is a shame.
    ... Heels on the other hand, take your pick, its a good job the Daz females can't get spinal injuries. :P

    I must be unusual, my females are very short of shoes, because they don't care to wear 6 inch spike heels with everything.

    Spinal...heck, the ankle/knee problems would probably do them in long before the spinal injuries mattered

    ModernWizard...

    For the price, you are probably not going to find anything better than SickleYield's set...and definitely not going to find anything like that on its own.

    Greetings,
    Retexturing would also be an option...

    http://www.daz3d.com/v4-sport-trainer-shoe-pack (available from Classics for Genesis) or http://www.daz3d.com/sports-clogs-for-genesis seem prime targets for retexturing into what you're looking for.

    It says something that I can't even find those on TurboSquid. (Is it weird that I'm shocked at how low shoe prices are on TurboSquid?)

    Nobody wears heels everywhere... Funny how I only ever see "flats" of any sort in packages made by Japanese artists (or Sickleyield, or Headkase for frebies) - and closed-toe sandals aren't fashionable in Japan, as near as I can tell.

    yep, my Girlfriend takes her heels off before bed (sometimes), LOL. She wears 3 inch pumps 5 days a week at work and heeled boots or stilettos when we are out and about. Only flats she has are tennis shoes/sneakers and a pair of riding boots. Barefoot in the house

    I am anxiously waiting for more heels for GF2, just not enough out yet, There are barely enough for genesis. No interest in buying any flats or boring shoes for any models.

    I'm sorry, I have Asperger's and so am really bad at reading tone. Could I ask whether you're being serious or sarcastic/joking?

    Serious on both accounts, she actually likes wearing heels and has quite the collection. I know lots of women that wear heels often, guess it has something to do with the area i live in and the entertainment industry many I know work in.

    Okay, thanks. :)

    Sorry, I just... know that a) people often don't say exactly what they mean/employ sarcasm/jocular tones that change the meaning of what they say and that b) I'm really really bad at picking these up in the way that most people are able to parse out the tone, so I end up over analysing everything for every possible subtext and permutation, and then often end up in the trap of having half a dozen possible interpretations and not knowing which one is correct.
