this be my second pair of rainbow -lrb- the first pair be premium leather , and I do not know that if they get wet , you have to dry they immediately - so they start to get pretty gnarled -rrb- . these be great , durable sandal - great for school , since they dont require you to take they off if you have to walk through water . they do hurt you foot for the first few day , so I break they in via many short trip in they , not one whole day , which I do in my leather , which make my foot feel like s \*\*\* ! the one I buy be black , so they dont show dirt as easily . I do miss the different color rubber on the side , but that minor . plus , theyre cheaper and more `` eco-friendly '' than the leather !
