I just bought some Duckfeet boots for these flippers, and I can’t help but love them. I love the colour and the comfort, and there’s so much room for toes.

All of my shoes are either dying or not fitting well, and because adulting and becoming more environmentally conscious, I wanted good quality shoes that will last and can be resoled.

I’m still a bit conscious that they are not shaped like a “regular” shoe and that I’ll stand out, but I’m at the age now where I’m saying more “Who cares, and if they do, why do their opinions matter?”

"Marble"y pattern isn’t as prominent now after I’ve conditioned them, but they’re still pretty and cute… 👉👈

    Yup, I’m hoping the same. Once they break in, I’m hoping to fall absolutely head over heels for them.

    These boots are from Denmark! Found them here in Australia, so yes, the price is higher than likely anywhere else in the world coming from that far away, but so far, worth it. :)

        Yup. Pretty spicy. I debated for a year about getting a pair, but my Blundstones have started letting in some water so I had to stop putting off getting any new shoes.

        What I plan on doing is wearing down the soles a bit before getting them resoled with something way more durable and slip resistant than the crepe. I saw somewhere that someone replaced it with Vibram soles! I think they were in the States, and I’m not paying for shipping and USD. Someone local must do it, surely.
