Product Description

Connect with craftsman across the world. These rare slippers are handmade in the hills of Central Bali. The villages come together to make each part of the slipper. Many families collectively are involved in a part of the final product. The sole is made of rubber with foam for cushioning while the straps are made of cloth. They cut the patterns and individually paint each slipper in their compounds. Help support these Bali villages by ensuring that they're linked to a better future.

Flip flops are really cute, but the sizing stinks. I have skinny feet and wear an 8 1/2 and bought a large and can barely get them on the because the straps are so tight.

I really love these flip flops. They are a great value and the fact that that I am helping support communities in Bali makes me very happy. They are also:

1.) Extremely beautiful, definately designer style
2.) Comfortable and long lasting. I've worn them in the summer, the rain on the sand and even on rocky surfaces. They are amazingly sturdy.

I enjoy these sandals. I've worn them in the rain and they were fine. I'm usually the type of girl who loves the flexible-type soles. Yes, I like feeling the rocks I step on. The cardboard makes that a bit difficult, but I'm not complaining. Just stating it just in case someone were interested in these sandals for that reason.

About the straps. At first they were a bit uncomfortable. They were tight and sometimes even left subtle welts on the tops of my feet. But like any shoe I believed that they must be broken in (I love a challenge) and that's just what they did. The straps loosened up to fit the shape of my foot within a couple of days and they are as comfortable as ever. I didn't have the size problem many seem to have had. People have different types of feet--this sandal isn't made for everyone unfortunately.

The suede (I believe) on the straps is very comfortable. There are no metal pieces in the thong of the sandals (brown) I bought unlike what was stated in a previous review, though it may differ from style/color to style/color. Maybe it's just me, but I feel special wearing things that have been handmade. Whether the design or what-have-you can be seen or not someone busted their behind to paint pretty-looking flower-like things on the soles of my sandals, so I'm darn sure going to wear them with some misplaced sense of pride in appreciation.
