Apparently they are not waterproof

I loved the colors, loved the fit and feel. the whole thing seems overbuilt. The sole is a bit too stiff, but definitely sturdy and could easily handle some off terrain walks. My issue is with the construction of the bit between your toes where the straps fasten into the sole. Its seems that it is just sandwiched between the layers of the sole and glued. I guess that would be fine if it held up. But it did not hold up. Ive been wearing them almost daily for shower shoes and the toe piece on the right sandal has slipped halfway out rendering the sandals unwearable after only a few months use for a few minutes a day. No outdoor hiking, no running or tennis. no catching the front of the sole on anything. just walking down the hall to the shower and back. Maybe it is the heavy duty stiff sole. Maybe the right sandal didn't get enough glue and it's a fluke. I don't know. What I do know is that for the price I paid I would have expected to get several years of heavy use out of them but they barely lasted 6 months of the lightest possible use. If you want to romp around lava tide pools on vacation and consider them disposable after a week of such use you may be pleased. But I recommend carrying a pair of dollar flip flops for backup so you are not left stranded. 2 stars because they are pretty..
