No break in period!
By Speedykeys on Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2013
For the past 5 years I've only worn rainbow sandals. I decided to give something else a try after my last pair wore out just because I didn't want to have to deal with the pain in the ass break in period that Rainbows make you go through. I gambled on the Sunuks since I had never tried them on before, and they definitely don't disappoint! Right out of the box they feel amazing. I tend to have very sweaty feet and these sandals seem to keep my feet dry and non-slippery compared to most other non-leather sandals. Also I'd recommend ordering a size up, I wear a size 12 in pretty much everything except converse which I wear an 11 or 11.5 and I decided to order the Sanuks in a 13. They fit perfectly. They're also really light, so light that the only issue these might have is that they could wear out quick since I tend to drag my feet a tiny bit when wearing sandals and the sole isn't very dense. I'd definitely recommend these to anyone needing a new pair of sandals!!

Not everything I hoped for

Hi there, I am not a flip-flop connoisseur; in the past, I have almost always worn sandals during the summer. The one pair of flip I briefly owned were awful -- they cut my feet and were terribly uncomfortable. But the girls who advise me on wardrobe-related issues told me that I needed to get flip-flops because my sandals were hideous. So, as is my general practice when I need to make a purchase, I checked out the Amazon reviews. Based on the reviews, it seemed like I couldn't go wrong with this product, and even my fashion consultants gave their approval, so I ordered them. I have found the flip-flops to be ok. They are generally comfortable and certainly do not cut my feet; indeed, in the house, or on a short walk around the block, they are perfectly fine (and would merit 5 stars). However, I have unfortunately had problems when I use them more extensively. Once I walk more than, say, 5 or 6 blocks, the friction between the bottoms of my feet and the flip-flops becomes uncomfortable. It is almost like a rug-burn type of sensation. After a few hours of running errands or hanging out with friends, the bottoms of my feet are significantly irritated. To be fair, it's not excruciating pain, and the problem is not long-lasting. If I change shoes (or go to sleep), my feet are perfectly fine within a couple of hours (or when I wake up the next morning). Still, given all of the rave reviews, I would not have expected to encounter this problem. And although I don't generally write too many reviews, I felt like somebody should pipe up about a not-great experience, so that consumers have another view to consider. However, as I mentioned, I do not generally wear flip-flops, so perhaps this is a problem endemic to all flip-flops, or perhaps to my bizarrely sensitive feet. But I just wanted to get the information out there. Happy flip-flopping! J
