I've had these for just over 6 months, I love the fit and feel and they got used every day cost per use was probably less than 10c but that single point of failure has really burned me. I thought they were sturdy but the croc flip flop couldn't handle it. And then my partner who got the exact same pair also had it happen to her. Any other alternatives I'd be happy to try out but I need something that will offer longevity and hopefully that BIFL quality. I am not based in the US (in NZ) so not every product is accessible to me and I have NFA so it has to be available in an actual store since I can't get shipping currently.

Has anybody else been burned by this product or has anybody had their croc flip flops last a long time?

Hey this is exactly what I'm looking for, one piece construction means no point of failure might see can I pickup a pair this week!

I love mine, so comfortable. I did loose one pair to a new puppy, but my second pair has held up to frequent use. Podiatrist recommend too!

Allbirds makes a jandal out of sugarcane. They still look like they might have that same point of failure, but they have good reviews on their longevity, and they're more sustainable.
