Once these chanclas are strapped on, you’ll never go back. I get tons of compliments and then people go “Oh, they’re….Tevas?” I only wear dresses and this goes with a majority of my wardrobe. Can walk all day and night in em. And I had a pair get sacrified to the desert last year. At this price point, I was able to get another pair guilt free. If you hate the snaking gladiator ankle tie, they make a pair that just stop around the base of the ankle too.
