Half the price of the keens and reviews are positive.

I also wonder if sandals are appropriate for winter and rainy season. I don't bike in a real downpour but do go out in a drizzle. Do you sandal-wearers rock waterproof socks or overshoes, or switch to something else for cold and wet conditions?

I rode the Nashbar sandals for most of the summer. REALLY liked them. Once it cooled off I went back to my Performance MTB shoes. I ride the Shimano PD-M520 on my Trek 520 because I also finish my ride dressed for work after changing at the gym. Problem now is I can't find any winter toe covers that fit the heavier sole of the MTB shoe.
