Thanks for the recs, all!

Chelsea>>side zips for me, as well. Clearly just personal preference

I like both, but I occasionally have problems with the zipper on side zips catching on the inside of the hem on pants and pulling the threads out. I mostly wear Chelseas these days.

Anyone have experience with Paraboot vs Steve Mono sandals? Will likely go for Paraboot but I like the Steve Mono sole.

@armellod.e, I have the paraboot sandals. can confirm they are good. went a half-step down from my normal paraboot size on the advice of their rep, worked out well for me.

@NO MERCY Sweet, thanks. Might try on a pair first if I can find one in-store. Half a size down from normal paraboot size = ...full size down? I'm typically a 42 in other shoes, seem to recall Paraboot sizing advice to be half a size down...
