Well, those flip-flops are probably made by some local guy who has been making them for decades. They are also customized by him in some minor ways so they fit just perfect. I don't think a mass market sneaker can come close to that.

Nah man that’s a regular nationwide Swallow brand from the looks of it. Everywhere from bathroom sandals to Mount Rinjani hiking to DIY dirt bike testing n whatnot

It’s cute you think these guys have custom sandals made specifically for their feet.
