Review on πŸ‘¦ Boys' Local Black Strap Sandal Slipper - Perfect Shoes for Summer by Trae Joubert

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Normal legs Asian legs should not feel constricted in flip-flops

The size of the legs is perfect (slippers 11-12 on shoes 10.5-11), the strap is a separate story, and in general a separate Detail - they are shortened the bar between the big and nearest toes, the fit is too snug for what is usually comfortable wearing flip flops and snuggling right between them. I hope this softens up a bit but I really think I'll just have to get used to it or find another brand which will be very disappointing. I can't imagine that during production they thought they could save that much money by changing the design of the barrel. I've been wearing the Local brand since at least the 80's and every time I return to Hawaii I grab a few pairs to hold out until my next shopping spree at Ala Moana Long's Drugs (from California unfortunately). After my supplies ran out I grabbed the Revain and they are a bit more expensive than the site itself but they are the same slippers which added little to the fun. This is a 3 star review in the hope that they bring the stalk back while still being the most beautiful basic slipper in the world which continues to be their iconic style.
