Review on Columbia SANTIAM Regular Strap Sandal by Ken Desens

I have been wearing Columbia sandals for a long time. The Columbia sandals are pretty much everything I wear on my feet most of the day, including on my daily walks. I find the sandals extremely comfortable and Columbia have made some of the best sandals ever. The model is called VENERO. I had two or three pairs. All these VENTEROs stuck together until the soles wore out! Very well done. After that, I didn't think about buying anything ALS the Columbia sandals. However, when my last VENTERO was finally worn out, this model was no longer available! I was disappointed that I couldn't buy them again. So I found another similar Columbia model, this SANTIAM. They're just as comfortable, so I was hoping for better durability. Turns out they don't last very long. The rear external ankle strap begins to fail almost immediately. Both the left and right sandals were weak in the same area. Now one has completely exploded. So I'm disappointed in them compared to VENTERO which had an incredible lifespan. during VENTEROs.
