LOVE the way Fitflops feel so good for daily wear but flip flops can't take me just everywhere either. SO i embraced a stapped sandal- with last years elastic banded model..only complaint -back strap is too short to comfortably velcro strap on. THOUGHT they'd fixed that with the new look of these shoes, great look, colors wonderful, classic style but again, the strap is too short for comfortable buckling- so back they go- memories of comfortable shoe wear linger tho.
