This was supposed to be my almost 3 year old's (tomorrow is his 3rd birthday!) first flip flop, however we ended up getting a pair at gap that was on clearance.  This pair arrived the day after and he prefers this one hands down.  It is soft, cushy and comfortable.  Plus they look very cool!  Which little boy wouldn't love a picture of a crocodile on his sandals...  Very cute and comfy and got it at a fantastic price!
