User Reviews
My son loves that brand and it’s not easy to find his size, they’re comfortable and they’re also very affordable.
The flip flop straps loosen up very quickly. I don’t know if they come out of the shoe’s front slot or the straps stretch, but they begin to loosen within days after starting to wear them.
I am very disappointed because I've bought this before and twice I've had sizing issues. I got two of the same pairs, sizes and style for my sons. And the two size 10s are irregular sized. One fits and one doesn't which will cost me money as I'm outside of the US.
It took some time for me to break in the flip flop, where it finally started to feel OK while I wear it. It runs smaller than the actual size from my experience. After wearing it for some time, I started to notice some red irritated skin that became uncomfortable. I only wear it for short periods of time for that reason, as a back up.
Bought these for my hubs. They ran slightly small and they are very stiff. Like, I’m sure you can break them in, but your feet won’t be happy with you during the process.
With the correct size, the strap presses too tightly against the second toes causing pain and discomfort. I have purchased the same brand and size in the past with no problem. I will be returning.
