so I review comment on several product look for some good look and more importantly - comfortable and durable flip flop . I purchase the Sperry Topsider Santa Cruz , the Teva Katavi , and the Columbia PFG Techsun Flip III Sandal -lrb- base on the review I read - these 3 seem to come up quite often -rrb- . I would rate the Sperry number 1 , Teva number 2 , and Columbia a fairly distant 3rd . comfort and fit go to the Sperry as well as look - a bit more formal for a flip flop with the leather type strap . great traction and fit -lrb- I wear a size 9 but purchase the size 10 because I have a wide foot -rrb- and it look great . good form fit to the foot and excellent cushion . the Katavi be a pretty close second , but not quite as sharp look as the Sperry . I also get a size 10 and the cushion and especially the lining of the strap be good quality and comfortable . the Katavi 's have more aggressive sole as well . the Columbia be not as nice look , have a tapered toe at the top -lrb- which give it a different look -rrb- , and I do not like the Columbia emblem on the strap . also , the top of the flip flop be `` plasticky '' and feel more like a beach type shoe that could get wet and dry off quicker then the other -lrb- as oppose to a day out shoe -rrb- . I also purchase a size 10 , and the size 10 in the Columbia be considerably larger . I 'll come back later as time wear on to see which one break or wear quicker than the other - they be start to get less use as the weather get colder , so it may be awhile before I get to that review .
