I received a pair of Wishbone flip-flops for this review. I was not financially compensated for this post . My opinions are my own and not by any means influenced by any other part.
Sunny warm days are here
I am looking forward to spending some time outdoors and work on my much needed tan! A couple of weeks ago I was approached by Wishbones sandals and while I am always ready to try new footwear, it was the concept behind this minimalist and sandal that drew my attention.
How does it work?
Quite simple actually. Whenever you choose to buy a pair of Wishbones sandals, the company donates a second pair to someone in need, on your behalf, through the Wishbones giving partners.
You see you are not only getting a pair of comfortable sandals for the summer, you are providing someone with a much needed pair of shoes. If I have to be honest, I have to say I love this concept because the reality is that it makes it really easy to do something I might have wanted to do for a while but never got around to and that is giving a hand to someone that needs help.
I am a true believer that what goes around comes around and Wishbone makes doing a good deed super easy!
The Wishbone design is minimalist
They offer a few different styles and all of them share the same simple flare. For this review I received a pair of the Origin Carbon Wishbones sandals in black featuring the Wishbones moto on the insole along with 3D Embossed to avoid slipping.
In addition, the Origin Carbone sandals from Wishbones sandals also features a wedged heel for added shock absorption and a layered outsole provides extra grip. They use Polygiene treatment which is an antibacterial treatment that according to Wishbones effectively prevents the growth of 99% of the more than 18,000 bacteria that want to make your sandals their permanent home. The Polygiene treatment is meant to help prevent the spread of foot infection which is an added bonus!
Registering your Wishbones sandals is very easy, there is a tab on the store menu that says (register your Wishbones), you will find 3-4 questions in order to register your Wishbones sandals.
The Wishbones sandals are made with sustainable, natural rubber and are 100% recyclable
The final product is a high quality, comfortable and durable pair of sandals that will come in very handy this summer.
The Wishbone sandals Origin Carbon have a retail price of $24.00.

I love all the colors and styles. The best pair that I liked is the Mist Slim Crystal Aqua. I love the Wishbones moto.
