    My wife is trying to sell me on a pair but I'm not sure I can get past them looking (to me) like women's sandals. Good quality and real leather has me on the fence. I wear my Blundstone boots 8 months of the year and want something equally high-quality and comfortable in a sandal. Who has them and likes them or hates them?

    I have two pairs :anonymous:

    I have their clog and their sandals. They are really comfy. They were really popular in high school with guys and girls and I occasionally wear them around the house or campsite.

    What about some Chacos? I've been wearing them for about 10 years now. Chaco boots in the cold, Chaco sandals in the heat. They may seem less like a girl shoe, I don't know. They're comfy an they're sandals and I can get two-three years out of a pair wearing them literally every warm day.

    If all of those fruitcake pics Jefe posted hasn't pushed you to insecurity, in truth there is no better sandal you can get for your feet. I have been wearing 'em for years. I have hardwoods throughout my home and wear a pair indoors year round.

    My stonemason wears them in summer while he's shaping and laying stone

    People that get hung up on what shoes you wear as being some indicator of you as a person are beyond shallow

    Yeah I can get past the look. Not too concerned with what bros in Affliction t-shirts have to say. Been wearing my bloodstones for 8 years and not for their looks.

    Wondering if they actually hold up well and are comfortable. I've heard about the cork rotting out if you'r in a wet climate, or them taking forever to dry out.
