I really like these shoes but they are getting worn and I would like to buy another pair. Will you be carrying this shoe again? Thank you for your response, Bruce Stevens" Bruce Stevens, Jamul CA | ||||||
"I bought a pair of your flip-flops at a local surf shop a few years ago. They were still going strong (easily the most comfortable I've ever owned - and I own several, e.g. Teva, Cobian, etc.) when I twisted my foot last week on the edge of the curb bringing down the full weight of my overflowing recycle bin and pulling the strap that goes between the toes. Even though they are still wearable, the left foot is looser now than the right. They fit so perfectly that it is really noticeable. I'm so bummed. I put literally hundreds and hundreds of hard miles on these babies and they still looked and felt like new. I WILL buy another pair just as soon as I can. (they were quite resaonable - I'd strongly recommend them to anyone)." Neal Larsen, San Diego, CA | ||||||

"The best, most sturdy flip flops ever." Jim Lynch Jr, Brick, NJ | ||||
"While in Jackson, Mississippi this summer, I was in a store called Hudson's and my suede sandals were hot and heavy. I really wanted nice, not thin rubbery flip flops and so tried on the only style of Pure Juice they had...(Black with a ribbon piece that goes through your toes, size 4 (normally my size is 5 1/2 AA) And surprise, surprise...Pure Juice fit---they were lightweight, narrow and I haven't taken them off since. I actually also bought the same black pair, size 1 for my granddaughter even though she is only in an 11 now. I thought I would never be so lucky as to find them when I wanted to. Actually, I am sorry I did not buy myself another pair so when these are worn I would have a back up. Do they come in white? The ribbon piece is extremely comfortable and the band that goes over the top of your foot is soft and wide enough to keep the flip flop on your foot when walking. Thank you. I look forward to your catalog/brochure when available....You definitely have a new customer." Phyllis Allen, Schenectady, NY | ||||
"I would like to get a list of retail shops that sell your shoes in both California and Hawaii ASAP. Thank you." Patricia Marasco, South San Francisco, CA | ||||

"20 years ago I owned a small boutique in Huntington Beach, Ca. I carried Pure Juice thongs and, of course, supplied all of my close friends and family with your sandals. My friends and family have been asking me for years to send them some more sandals as they have never found more comfortable shoes anywhere at any price. Since I no longer have my business, I've spent a couple years looking everywhere for your sandals. No luck. Glad you'll be back in 2003." Helen Marie Ingram, Deerfield Beach, FL | ||||

Rogers III, Jefferson, MD | ||||

Then one day I happened to be in San Diego Ca. and I found a store that carried them. I was soooooo happy. Today my black sandals broke, so I took them to a shoemaker to see if he could fix them.
