Rainbow SandalsWomen's Single Layer Premier Leather w/Swarovski Crystal Narrow Strap

I finally had to admit my 15 year old rainbows were done. These are super cute with the crystals on the strap. They are NOT fun to wear the first time...you HAVE to break them in. Best way I've done it is to get them wet and let them dry on your feet. Walk around the house until they start to stretch out a little bit. It's going to take a few days...but if you get 15 years of happy feet, aren't a few days to break them in worth the effort? Do yourself a favor....get them!EDITED AFTER 3 MONTHS USE: As predicted these rainbows are extremely comfortable once broken in. I swear they were made for my feet! But....what the heck is going on with the sole staining my feet so badly?!? When I bought my first pair about 15 years ago, the soles of my feet turned black for a few days and then it stopped. I've worn these sandals almost every day since I got them and the bottom of my feet are stained black every day. It's annoying and a little embarrassing because it looks like I have dirty feet! Did rainbow change their dye formulation? I sure hope this dye finally runs out because having stained feet for years is not fun.

I’ve always loved Rainbow flip flops, I will never buy any other flip flops other than this brand. These go with everything and they mold to your feet so they are very comfortable. Size chart is always on too. I’ve always thought $80 bucks for a pair of flip flops is insane but the last pair I had lasted almost 5 years then the gems started to fall out so I decided to buy another pair. Worth every penny.

White pair was so stiff and painful, was never able to break them in ...6 years after purchase, still can't wear them longer than an hour or so (blisters appear under straps, outside of foot)Black pair - was able to break them in and wear them just fine for about a year. Now, they bleed black dye all over the soles of my feet, and make me look and feel disgusting. For example, one day I wore them to the nail salon because I was only getting a manicure and as I was seated at the manicurists table; I overheard another woman say to her friend, "well, don't feel bad ...at least you don't have dirty feet" and I caught them laughing and gesturing toward my feet (which had gross black dye all over the soles, from walking the few blocks from my apartment to the salon). Not fun.Anyway, looks like neither of these issues are covered by the Rainbow warranty - so, off to shop for new sandals I go. Wasted about $180 on sandals I mistakenly thought would last many, many years.

Ive been buying rainbow sandals my entire adult life, the last 15 years. They last me up to 4 years of use before the leather starts becoming "uncomfortable" feeling. but generally thats caused by me wearing them to the beach, getting them wet in some way. Avoid that, and these shoes will last you years upon years.These arrived in perfect condition, the swarovski crystals are beautiful & stunning in the sunlight.

Ok, I originally ordered Vionic orthaheel sandals for a trip to Vegas, but couldn't find a pair that fit right or felt right. I then ordered these VERY LAST minute.Upon looks, they were very cute. The crystals are super shiny and look like they won't budge at all. The arch support was MUCH weaker than I expected for an $80.00 flip flop. Not even close to the Vionic support. Actually, if I didn't need flip flops for my trip I probably would have returned these due to the price and I really wanted a high arch support. Size was true, which was a plus.They are comfy...other reviewers were right that the straps are a bit tight, but it didn't really bother me. These ate up my feet in Vegas and caused blistering. I SHOULD have taken my Victoria Secret Colin Stuarts because those are the comfiest sandals on earth, but I didn't just because they didn't have an arch support. Honestly, I wouldn't order another pair of these sandals. For the price I paid....I really am only paying for the bling.... my Colin Stuarts are still the comfiest flip flops I own and are cheaper when on sale for about $40.Vegas strip also made these SUPER dirty and I've tried washing them with soap and water, but so far...they look like they've been worn for years when they have been worn for 3 days. I just can't get past the price....these aren't worth it in my eyes.... GET COLIN STUARTS!Update: even more annoyed with this purchase. The strap on my right sandal has loosened up SO much it's super noticeable. Now my left sandal is perfect and the right has way too much room making it uncomfortable to wear... I still wear them due to the price. Can't believe the hype on this brand...

This is the second pair that I've owned and I ordered the Espresso this time. They are so beautiful! The crystals really give them a nice bit of bling and dress up the casual Rainbow. My other pair got a ton of use and are really looking worn, so these are a nice upgrade. If you are on the fence, go ahead and splurge, it's a worthwhile investement!

I’ve had rainbow Sandals for years, and these ones don’t quite sit right. They’re not cheap, so you’d better be getting what you’re paying for, but these feel lighter than normal, and the break-in process was non-existent with these ones unlike the pairs I’ve bought from the actual website in the past. I’ve been wearing them, but I’m not entirely sure they’re the real deal. They are pretty though.

I ordered these thinking I would need to break them in like my other rainbows but these sandals you don’t need to break in. They are so comfortable right out of the box and are my favorite/most comfortable pair of sandals. I also love the sparkles on them.
