TEVA Mens Beige Mixed Media Padded Non-Slip Pajaro Round Toe Slip On Leather Flip Flop Sandal 10

I have a pair of Jetters that sold me on Teva so decided to add these to my collection. Where the Jetters were immediately comfortable, the Pajaros needed about 3 or 4 outings before they felt as comfortable and the arch support on both models is a definite plus.

This is my second pair of Pajaros and the only reason I purchased a new pair is that after several years of wear, both had their straps pull from the soles on the same timing! Prior to purchasing my first pair, I had a clear set of characteristics in mind and the Pajaro met them. These included a thick, molded sole with rain seeps and a broad strap, preferably of cloth, or, at least a soft material that wouldn't chafe. My first pair saw a lot of use and I was able to wear them for uses other than walking six blocks to our restaurant district for dinner. The fact that the straps pulled from the sole likely has to do with my wearing them for unintended uses by the designer. The fact that they lasted as long as they did is testimony to their durability.
