Not entirely sure what I'm looking for here, but I got the idea that it would be great to have a nice comfortable boot for just lounging around camp. Not a hiker, not a work boot, not a sneaker. I'm thinking something between a sneaker and a hiker.
Any thoughts on this? Does something like this even exist?

Hikes out here in the mountains usually involve stream crossings. To save weight and redundancy, the water shoe does duty as the camp shoe as well. Favorites are Crocs and Tevas. Both are light weight, dry quickly and give good relief at the end of a long trail.
In camp I wear anything from Sandals, to Sanuks, to five fingers. Not worried about a camp show being durable since I am not walking to much there. Seen some that wear a rubber soled house shoe if the weather forecast is dry.
I like something that I can kick off easily when getting in and out of the tent especially at night, so lined Crocs in the winter and flip flops in the summer.

For 10 ounces on the pack, you can't beat Crocs or a cheapie knock off version. After a long day on the trail, to slip on a pair of clean heavy hiking socks and wear something that feels like a squishy cloud while enjoying a fire is pure heaven.
Sometimes I'll take my vibram five fingers too in warmer weather.
