I love this pair so much, I just bought a new pair to replace the original.  Yes, the exact same pair.  I was able to wear them for two whole summers and they are just NOW starting to show wear.  They are very comfortable and easy to take care of.  My problem is that the bottom/back heel was starting to wear down and they wore down to the white line.  I wore them every single day for two whole summers, so - it is to be expected.  They are not falling apart, which is great.  I have purchased name brand sandals similar to this before and they fell apart after one summer (the straps would come apart from the rubber sandal - you know "I blew out a flip-flop..."  Like I said, I just ordered the same pair.  I hope they last as long as the original pair did.
