Make great house slippers
I go to a lot of department stores and I see the slippers they have on sale. The slippers I see are...1. Too furry as they make your feet too hot. Your feet smell and at worse case scenario, all the fur in those house slippers give you foot and nail fungus as your feet can't breathe in all the fur.2. You feet sweat in a lot of current house slippers that are available3. Uncomfortable as the materials many manufactures make their slippers from are of poor quality4. Many slippers sold at department stores are not durable. At one time I bought a pair of name brand slippers (forgot the brand), and within 3 months the slippers tore up to the point I could not wear them anymore.Right now Okabashi sandals or house slippers are the only and I stress ONLY decent brand of house slippers that are worth buying. I've been buying Okabashi for about 12 years and very happy with this brand. The average life span of Okabashi I buy have been from 3 to 4 years long before I had to replace them. Right now Okabashi are the only brand of house slippers that are....1. Durable2. Comfortable3. Don't get your feet too hot or cause your feet to get foot fungus4. Can wear with socks comfortably if your feet do get cold5. Last at least 2 to 3 years before you have to buy new ones6. Versatile.The rest of these other house slippers with fur, slipper soles, poor quality, lack of durability as they fall apart in 3 months or less and just flat our uncomfortable are not worth buying . Okabashi in my opinion are the BEST house slippers around.

Softer, improved
I bought a previous version from a couple years ago. Very durable, which was enough for me. But the current version is softer and more comfortable. Quality product, now improved. Will buy again, but no for a while, as they are long lasting.

They don't shrink!!!!
I use these as gardening sandals or throw on to walk outside sandals. They're comfortable, they're not slippery. Best of all, they don't shrink when left in the sun like many inexpensive sandals. They last for years.

Good, basic sandal. Affordable and made in the USA.
I wanted to find some USA made sandals, but it seems most brands are made in China or are very expensive. Then I found these Okabashi sandals. They're made in the USA and are 100% recyclable. In fact, you can mail them back to the company for recycling when you're done with them.the sandals were more rubbery than I expected, but I really had no idea what to expect. They're made of sturdy rubber that is comfortable. I've had these for about 8 months and I've been very satisfied.I don't know why Amazon doesn't have a picture of this sandal. You can find it on Okabashi's website.EDIT - long-term update.I've now had these sandals about one year and I wear them quite a bit. I haven't experienced the breakage that others complain about. These sandals are working great and I'll definitely buy another pair when these wear out.

far inferior product than in the past
i've been using Okabashi's for many years, I keep buying them because the shoe is so comfortable (good arch support) despite the fact they only last 1 yr at most. I've had several kinds of okabashi's, but Torino model was the most comfortable for wearing around the house.HOWEVER, these new ones have changed significantly from the past. first and foremost, these don't have half the arch support that the previous ones had. these are no longer comfortable. I've tried a coupld of other models from walgreens too, all the same - poor arch support. for this reason along, i returned this show. moreover, they seem like they're made a cheap material now, it feels really sticky and does not seem like it would last very long also.I've been extremely disappointed at Okabashi's recent changes!

Nice slides. Need a wider range of sizes.
I bought the Torino slip ons. Initial quality seems great. I wear 13s and have a wide forefoot, these fit snug. Maybe a little too snug, time will tell. If I had the option I would have ordered 13.5s because I like a looser fitting slide, but the biggest available were 13. Add more sizes for us big guys and so far, due to the quality I have seen at onset, I will buy more in the future.
