<< 1) Do I really need camp shoes?  How many do without anything to relieve 
the feet while in camp?  How many threw away their "camp shoes" in the first 
couple of weeks?

When I hike where I need to cross water, I carry and multipurpose use for 
water and camp, a pair of cheap flip flops.  If my feet aren't planning to 
get wet, I don't bother.
 
 2) I would ideally like to find is something soft, slipperlike, weighing say 
about 4 oz. with tough, water resistant bottoms.  Oh yeah, and cheap.  Can 
someone direct me to something like this?

I used to have a pair of the foam footies that the airlines pass out on 
international flights (free) which were great for sitting around in car 
camping situations.  Doust they would hold up on a hike unless you could put 
a better tread on them somehow.

 Thanks
