As many of you know by now, I am a big fan of flip flop. While I was on vacation, I picked up this pair of Dupe flip flop. These are so much more comfortable comparing to Havianna because the material has a jelly/gel like feel which is easier on the feet. Havianna is really hard while Dupe offers a bit of cushion due to the material. I fell in love with these for the bling bling crystals. Instead of glued on crystals like most flip flops out there, these crystals are set in 2 row and sewn on so little individual crystal will not go missing after a while, which happens with glued on crystals. The reason being rubber will release oil with time which will break up the glue that bonds crystals to the rubber, especially if a gal accidentally leaves her crystal flip flop in the trunk of a car during a hot summer day. Yes, that is me! Now I can leave these in my car and feel secure know these crystals are sewn on and will not come off by accident. What is your experience with glued on crystal flip flops?

ReplyDeleteI have an odd issue with flip flops. I can never seem to keep them on my feet, they always slip off mid flop.
ReplyDeleteThey seem great!!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to check these out. They look so comfortable and cute with the crystals! I've never had any flip flops with crytals because I always thought they would fall off. I could do these for sure.
ReplyDeletei'll try these ones. and yes, crystals coming off them is a pain and a waste that's why after the first one i didn't bother getting another pair. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteI like flip flops in theory, but like you said, they are often really uncomfortable, especially for walking long periods of time.
ReplyDeleteoh these are cute. and if they feel good on the feet i am in!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty!
ReplyDeleteI had these made for me. These flip flops are sold without bling.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a flip flop fan, but these sound like a great find!
ReplyDeleteI love flip flops.
ReplyDeleteI rock Old Navy flip flops all summer long. That is the best part of summer if you ask me. :)
ReplyDeleteCan you please tell me where you bought these flip flops? I bought a plain pair in Mexico last year, and I'm desperate to find another pair!
ReplyDeleteoh these are from taipei while i was on vacation.
ReplyDeleteI'll tell you what, Dupes are the most comfortable, reliable and hurt free flip flops! I love my Dupes!...
