About This Item: These easy on/off flip-flops feature RockDove's fun color-blocking design accented with a faux leather front patch. The 1-inch thick rubber sole provides sturdy support to cushion your stride, while the lightweight construction allows you to walk effortlessly without weighing down your feet. The soft and skin-friendly mesh strap ends in an ergonomic toe post that helps them stay on your feet. They dry off quickly when wet, making them perfect as shower, beach, poolside shoes, or simply slippers around the house. They are also machine washable for easy care. The zigzag traction on the bottom creates friction to prevent slips and falls.

Feels Like a Beach Vacation: Soak up the sun. Ride the waves. Breathe the salty air. Feel the breeze. Build sandcastles. Rest, relax, reflect. Collect seashells.

An American Company: RockDove was originally born on a beach, a shoe repair shop that resoled hiking boots for locals in Santa Monica, CA. Twenty years later, they're still making footwear for après adventure. Inspired by the bright hues and laidback vibes of their SoCal beachtown, every pair is made to feel like vacation for your feet. Their entire team from product design to customer support is still firmly rooted in West Hollywood, just 10 miles down Santa Monica Boulevard, where it all started.

What Makes Our Products Unique? Inspired by the carefree spirit of their SoCal roots, RockDove's slippers are made to be slipped on and go, machine washed, and worn indoor and out without the hassle of switching shoes. At the heart of each pair is RockDove's triple-layer insole that maximizes comfort.

What Are Your Slippers Made Of? RockDove's slippers feature synthetic uppers (unless stated otherwise) with either rubber or EVA soles. No animal parts are used.

Do Your Slippers Fit True to Size? Every design is fit tested prior to production. Being homegrown, RockDove knows American sizing, so you're not taking a risk with foreign brands that can't get their sizing right.

Machine Washable: All RockDove slippers are machine washable, so you can spend more time relaxing and less time cleaning. Whether it's dust, stains, or odors, simply throw them in the wash and they'll come out looking as good as new.

Sturdy Toe Post: Holds everything into place, and won't irritate the skin between your first and second toe. Reinforced with a faux leather patch, the material is waterproof and quick-drying.

Mesh Thong Strap: Form-fitting thong keeps your foot in place, making these flip-flops easier to wear than slides. Your toes won't ever have to grip the sandal just to keep them on. The soft nylon mesh strap won't chafe your skin or cause blisters.

Platform Sole: The thick 0.8-inch sole provides generous cushioning and support for everyday walking and standing. Just enough thickness to not feel clunky, and still completely guard your feet against ground shock. The natural rubber material is durable, flexible, and machine washable.

Our Story: RockDove was created for five birdwatchers of the Los Angeles Audubon Society in 2002. They were customers when RockDove wasn't yet a slipper company, but a beachside workshop in Santa Monica, California that resoled hiking boots. For fifteen years, they protected the feet of avid adventurers as they trekked punishing terrains across southern California's mountains and deserts. Their customers asked for quality indoor shoes to console their high-mileage, trail-weary feet, so RockDove handmade five pairs of slippers for them using a low-cut boot last.

The Experiment: Shoe brands in southern California didn't pay much attention to slippers, so RockDove had little to build on. However, they knew how to make comfortable, long-lasting footwear. Using mattress memory foam, gel insoles, anti-shock cushioning from hiking boots, and more, they designed slippers with the goal of comforting extremely tired feet. Two months later, when they sent out a newsletter about their little experiment, customers responded with 350 mail orders. They named their slippers after the most mundane bird they knew, the rock dove (pigeon) often seen strutting the boardwalks of Santa Monica Pier.

Inspired by Adventure, Made for the Everyday: To this day, RockDove's legacy of creating footwear as if for the most exhausted, adventure-wearied feet lives on. But adventure isn't always hanging on a rope off the side of a mountain. Everyone lives their own version of it, every single day. RockDove makes slippers so that anyone who's on their feet all day can count on switching into the world's most comfortable slippers once they get home.

The Sweet Spot Comfort Level: RockDove's quest to get comfort down to a science pushed them to become one of the earliest adopters of high-density memory foam in slippers. In 2004, they reached out to local sleep experts at the Long Beach Mattress Company to source their memory foam toppers, which they then molded into insoles. After obsessively tweaking the density and firmness ratings of their foams, they created that "sweet spot" level of comfort that offers incredible support without feeling like walking in quicksand.
