They look good, the base is one piece and the cushioned inlay is a separate piece. Finding something comfy for our feet is extremely important I have big feet with high arches so it's really difficult haha.

I know the sub is bifl but nobody actually expects anything to last their 'life' unless it's a cast iron frying pan, If i could get flip flops that last 3 years I would be extremely happy. But 6 months for a premium brand is just no good.

About 6 months! Really disappointed as I had decided on them via a post on this sub iirc.

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!

yeah I figured I'd get a few years of use out of these , I can buy cheap no brand flip-flops that will last a year easily. I have used crocs before and they are sturdy foam clogs so I thought that flip flops made of the same material would be a no brainer

Yeah I had heard a lot of good things about them but both my partners and my pair snapped at the same spot. Maybe a manufacturing defect or maybe newer versions are just lower quality

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?

Are you talking about regular crocs? The underside of these flip flops was basically fresh and had barely worn which made it more devastating for them to break.
