These are durable flip flops great for boating and wet surfaces.  First pair lasted 3-4 years until it blew out while climbing a  muddy hill. I probably wear them 9 months a year and as slippers in the winter. Had my current pair for another three years and was looking forward to a long relationship when our rescued 2 yr old Rottweiller found it outside the door and used it for a chew toy.  These are the most comfortable thing I have ever worn on my feet. The arch support is superb and they mold to your feet.  The rubber is strong and the nylon fabric strap indestructible. I hope they never stop making them!
