This is my second pair of these sandals. The first pair lasted me well over 15 years! They’re extremely durable. Very comfortable. You don’t have to wear socks with them to prevent chafing or making your feet sweat due to plastic or rubber that doesn’t breathe. Beach sand won’t abrade them away to nothing, and they clean up well with a few seconds under a foot shower so you don’t wind up tracking a lot of sand into your car. And salt water won’t destroy them if you just rinse them off with a little fresh water from a foot shower or hose before heading home.I highly recommend them for hard beach duty, trips to your favorite lake, boating, municipal swimming pools, or just lounging around the house.Also a rare find for men with big size 13 wide feet! Size 13’s really are size 13.
