This is a set of superconforming sandals for V4 and A4.  There are six different pairs of sandals in a variety of gladiator or greek styles, suitable for contemporary casual, historical, or fantasy renders.  Black and brown texture sets for all pairs are included, and a pose to show and hide the studs for more or less decorated looks.

Both DAZ 3 and Poser materials are included and are accessed as MAT poses.  The appropriate program's material will be applied when the icon is clicked whether you use DAZ or Poser, and these should work with Poser versions 4 and up.

Additional credits:

First and foremost, I thank the creators of GIMP and Blender, which are incredibly full-featured 2D and 3D creation programs available for free.  Credit is owed to the makers of the CR2 editor, a very useful and easy-to-use free program for editing cr2 files.  I also owe some credit to the friendly forum denizens at DAZ3D, where I've found product ideas, workflow help, and useful feedback.  I used Ralph Sesseler's Tool Collection and the Morphing Clothes program, and I highly recommend them for price, easy-of-use, and incredible utility.  All these members of the DS/Poser community have been very good to me whether our relationship was social, casual, or financial in nature, and this product would not exist without them.  

Finally, special thanks to my friend Enigmatic, without whose Blender advice and skills I would never have gotten into 3d to begin with.
