Going to the beach? Consider a pair of flip-flops from Rainbow Sandals, which CR social producer Jamison Hermann swears by. “These sandals are sturdy, comfortable, and have a classic design. I’ve worn them on countless beach trips and hot summer days,” he says. “I’m not a small person, and as a result I often wear through the soles of my shoes, but these have held up beautifully through the years.” And by “through the years” Jamison means “a decade or more,” a data point which has me glaring at the pair of (brand redacted) flip-flops I bought on vacation last year and which lasted, oh, two weeks? before the paint flaked off.
The Classic Rubber sandals are available for men and women, and similar styles are available for kids. Though Rainbow offers a six-month warranty for some sandals, it doesn’t for its Classic Rubber flip-flops. It does, however, offer a lifetime guarantee on the soles of all its sandals.
