Knock offs! Mold is not quite right, you can see it in the trademark and markings, they're not even the right sizes. Not made in the USA, even the tag says CANADADAWGS and made in China on the other side. Quite possibly the least comfortable pair of sandals I've worn. Lets be honest, if they were knockoffs and still comfortable, I'd still wear them. I wouldn't like it that the company wasn't being honest, but I'd give them at least one more star for comfort.
