Usually I buy a pair or two of $5 flip flops at the start of every summer, but after falling in love with a pair of Sanuk shoes, I decided to splurge on these.

These are easily the most comfortable sandals I've ever worn. The bed is cushy (it feels like yoga mat material, but has nice rounded/sealed edges) and it has good "memory"- even though I wear them frequently, they don't have the foot-imprint that cheaper sandals develop. They've held up really well, and they look so much better than my old cheapo sandals did, especially after a long summer. It's nice not to be creating waste by throwing away another pair every year. I don't know when I'll need new ones (I've had these for almost a year now and despite daily wear, they're still going strong) but when I do, I'll definitely be buying Sanuks again.
