sandshoe
Beach footwear, informal
A sandshoe is a light canvas shoe with a rubber sole, used for sports or casual wear—what Americans call a sneaker or tennis shoe.
The term is common in Australian and Scottish English: She slipped on her sandshoes for the beach.
The name likely comes from the shoe's suitability for walking on sand.
