What does SANDAL mean in Scrabble?
noun
An open shoe with a sole held to the foot by straps rather than a fully enclosed upper.
A sandal leaves most of the foot exposed, relying on straps across the top, around the ankle, or between the toes to keep a simple sole in place, unlike a shoe or boot with a closed upper. The design suits warm weather and beach or casual wear, since it keeps the foot cool and dries quickly if it gets wet. Sandals range from simple flat styles worn with everyday clothing to elaborate strapped versions worn with formal outfits, and the basic open-strap design has changed little since ancient times.
