Rainbow SandalsMen's Classic

Love
If you're new to the wonderful world of rainbow, you won't "get it" right away. These sandals come stiff as a board. They're uncomfortable and make you think people spending $55+ for flip flops actually are nuts. I bought these for my bf hoping he would come to understand my love of this shoe. Give them a week or two, and you'll be a new member of the people that are nuts for rainbows crew. They are hands down, the best all terrain, walking, hiking, biking, beach, city, shorts, pants, anything shoe. It can be 100 degeees, or 40 degrees, and you'll be reaching for your rainbows. They will mold perfectly to your foot and endure just about anything. As the years go by, you'll know it's time to order another pair, or retire them out of circulation, but yet somehow you'll still find yourself reaching for your beloveds. I'm partial to the brown family (waaay too many colors to list) when it comes to this shoe, but happy to say, another rainbow success story here!

So comfortable. Worth the price. Great Shoes.
Rainbows are my favorite brand of flip-flops. Hands down. I have been buying them since college (10 years ago) and will keep buying them into the future. I am back in college, in grad school, and studying abroad this summer and ordered a new pair so I would be able to walk around comfortably this summer.Whenever I get a new pair it takes a few days to break them in- so I encourage you to allow them time to mold to your foot. I got a blister, as I did with the last pair, from how the band rubs against the top of my foot. But - it quickly heals and the shoe becomes perfect, fits great, super comfortable.This time I ordered double thickness, which is a few dollars more, I think it is worth the extra few dollars.My dad gave me a pair of rubber Rainbows for Christmas this year. They are okay, super comfortable also, and will probably last longer, but I still like the leather ones better. The leather feels nicer against the skin.They have a lifetime warranty if the strap breaks. But that is not really going to happen. Because the warranty is null and void if the bottom or top wears through first. I have never had a pair of flip flops from any decent brand where the strap broke before there was some noticeable wear.I live in Florida- so we wear flip-flops a lot- it is part of our culture. I live in the panhandle- so we prefer to be barefoot- if I am outside of work, church, or 'the club' - and I have to wear shoes these are the ones I want to be wearing.I have some friends who refuse to pay $50 for a pair of flip-flops. Obviously, I disagree. These shoes are a great value for the dollar.I am reviewing these shoes in an effort to help other Amazon customers by relaying my experience with the product and providing any insight I garnered. I would really appreciate that if you found my review helpful, that you would please indicate so below by clicking the YES button below.

If you have a size 14 feet, try the XXL instead of XXXL, but beware of break-in period
I am a size 14 and had a hard time deciding originally which size flops I should buy. A couple years ago, I got the XXXL (3XL) made for 13.5-15 but I thought that those were too big and looked rather silly on me. I had about 3/4 of an inch behind my heel of sandal leftover, which would get stepped on frequently in crowded places from people behind me (read: flat tires). Also, the strap seemed made for a fatter foot and it caused me to FLOP loudly at times when walking. Although that pair of Rainbows lasted more than 2 years, I knew when it was time to replace them that I would get a size smaller.So I got the XXL (2XL) made for 12-13.5 but did just fit my size 14 feet (very little room to spare). Admittedly, the strap was really tight and I had to endure a few blisters between my toes while breaking them in for about a week. However, now they feel great and comfortably snug, so no more loud flopping and no more flat tires from people behind me.Rainbows are great sandals and my old ones lasted a couple years before wearing out the bottom, so I know the quality will be good. They are really comfortably (once you get past the break in period, which allows the strap to be comfortable and the sole of the sandal to mold to your foot. If you haven't had them before, I'd recommend "splurging" on this pair in whatever color you like. I'll continue owning a pair.

Worth the money, only ones you'll need for years
I suppose that what I am actually reviewing here is my last pair, which I have worn for more than 12 years. They are still pretty functional, though they look gross as hell.My new ones arrived and they are a LOT poofier than I remember: they are cushiony and supportive, eventually compacting down to fit your foot precisely. They last, they're comfy and really not THAT pricey overall.My last pair has outlasted the relationship with the girl who bought them for me more than 12 times over!

6 months old and already breaking
Overall they seem like an ok pair of sandals. I bought them because my partner’s favorite pair of Flojos finally fell apart after about 10 years consistent use (amazing!) I wanted him to have another pair that he’d love and would last him a long time—I’d heard good things about Rainbow and thought the brand made high quality products. I was slightly disappointed when they arrived and didn’t seem as sturdy or well built as I’d hoped, the leather was thin and the base seemed like lightweight and lower quality foam, but my partner liked them and found them comfortable, so I was happy.It’s been about 6 months since I bought them, they’ve been lightly used and it’s just getting to be hot summer weather, perfect time to get some good use out of those flip flops! Unfortunately it looks like the foam base is already splitting, I’m really disappointed, won’t buy a pair of rainbows again, will buy another repair of Flojos and hope they still make quality sandals!

Rainbow Sandals - brilliant quality and looks
Rainbow Sandals (flip-flops to me) are the best on the market. I bought a pair light browns twenty years ago in theCanary Islands and I still have them. The built up arch support is quite unique to flip-flops so you get what you payfor with this pair and that is quality. I did get a blister or two wearing-in the strap but this ensures that once "warn-in" the sandal will still grip tightly to the foot. Overall a brilliant piece of footwear for the beach and casual use.

Love my rainbows - worth every dollar!
Fantastic product! I bought my first pair of double soled Rainbows 15 years ago and have now finally replaced them! They are extremely comfortable, supportive and definitely built to last. The product is more expensive than others for a reason: THEY ARE SUPERIOR!
