I just love these sandals. First of all I'm not really a sandal guy but in the summer you need a pair with shorts. I dont do black socks and shorts! These are the best shoes I have ever owned, they are comfortable, washable and durable. I have had them for a year. They are so comfortable you dont want to take them off. If they get sand just rinse with water if they get dirty just get some antibacterial soap and wash I really reccomend these. I got mine at the mall but you can order them online for $30. You will be thanking me for a pair of sandals that are nice.
