Nisolo Men's Huarache Sandals, Slip-On Comfort, Designed for Casual Everyday Wear & Any Occasion, Handwoven & Waterproof Leather, Flexible, No-Slip Rubber Sole, Runs Large

Wanted to write a quick review after one year of heavy wear, because I think this company deserves it. Wore these all last summer and fall, and again daily this spring, and overall they still look almost new and feel like they have years of life left. They definitely stretch a bit, so buy a bit too small and plan for a week or so of break-in. They might rub a bit at first so don't plan to walk too far in them for the first week, but after a little wear-in they really mold to your foot and are comfortable to walk in all day. The leather is thick but supple, definitely good quality. Lastly, I really like the heavy rubber sole, rather than an all leather sole - it adds grip, durability and makes my feet less sore when walking on cobblestones, etc.. Anyway, style-wise everyone has their own opinion, but in terms of quality material and durability, I have worn and loomed at a lot of braided leather shoes and these are better than the many more expensive Italian-made alternatives I have seen. Totally worth the price.

I am very surprised these were sent to me as new. It’s true that they run big. Very big. The Huaraches I received were very obviously used. Not just tried on and walked around the house in—they looked like they were worn for quite a while and worn down a bit from asphalt. Blackened on the bottom. Maybe on a few week vacation? Also, it looks like after that they were stored on a shelf, collected dust, and half heartedly wiped off, as all the nooks and crannies were full of dust. There were obvious foot marks in them as well. They were used. An *okay* find at goodwill kind of used.

The breaking-in process was a bit of a challenge, but totally worth it. This is a good looking shoe.

Can’t return these, they don’t fit, POS slippers, do not buy,
