Packable footwear

What does everyone use as footwear when they get where they are going? I don't really want to be walking around in my SPDs. Ideally looking for something that can be flattened to make packing simple.

I was considering something like this...

Last year in France I just bought some cheap (as in €1) flip-flops and fixed them in behind the bag on the handlebar harness.

Same as ^^^^
On trips to hotter and/or less hygienic destinations the most I add is some flip flops.

Thanks, I was kinda on the right path then. The Decathlon 5£ aqua shoes look like they would be the most packable so will more than likely go with something like that.
