SandalDiego.com is a blog-with-benefits!

We're your go-to for answers about everything footwear related, especially sandals and flip flops.

We know our stuff, some of us were actually born in the 1900's!

As former brick & mortar shoe store owners/staff we are happy to pass on our collective wisdom to you. Why, you wonder, would we just give away our extensive knowledge?

Mainly because now you can't storm out or call us names when we tell you a truth you don't believe, such as; 'Lady, you do not wear a SEVEN unless we lace up the box' or 'No, you cannot return those, they're covered in muck & besides that, we don't rent them!'

Topics are all sandal related including: How to fit sandals properly & put them on correctly and why it matters. What kind of foot bed should I look for? Arch support vs. no arch support? Is my foot narrow, medium or wide? If the heel slides up & down now will it bother me later? What country makes the best sandals? Leather, plastic or cloth between my toes? What is that thing between the toes called?

Plus so much more...

In addition to our pro tips, picks & reviews we offer answers to a variety of often overlooked, some say taboo, subjects such as: How far should my toes hang over the front? What's that smell? Is there a link between soap & feet? 1881 invention of nail clippers; good or bad? Can I wear black socks with my open toe sandals to a formal occasion? Will a pedicure help my sex life? Should I buy closed toe footwear if my feet look like I could swoop down from a tree and grab lunch out of a lake?

Our advice is designed to be informative, honest & helpful. So, if you are going to wear sandals (in public) and have questions, you're in the right place. Or if you know someone, and we all do, who ought to be here but you don't want to bring up their skanky questionable foot decisions, feel free to secretly add their email below, no one will be the wiser. Just sayin'...

We review sandals, flip-flops and other casual sandal-y footwear and make recommendations. We'll include our picks (and why) for work, vacations, weddings, sex appeal, strategic coverage, hiking trails, the beach, and, of course: Best All Around Sandals For Women & Men.

For the record, we receive a small percentage when you make a purchase through one of our affiliate links so please bookmark, follow, favorite or whatever us and never buy sandals anywhere else. We try to stick with the original manufacturers sites whenever possible. We do not link to amazon or walmart owned companies.**

Thank you and...

Welcome aboard the SS Sandal Diego!
