When it comes to a tropical adventure, a good pair of flip flops is an absolute travel must-have. On our surf trip to La Saladita, Mexico we were so stoked to collaborate with Encinitas based company Vionic to provide our participants with the highest quality rubber sandals on the scene. Whether we were cruising the beach doing cleanups or workshops in the hot midday sun, chilling in hammocks post surf, or working with kids in the community on a planting and painting project, we were always supported and comfy each step of the way.
WE ARE is committed to collaborating with brands who contribute something beyond just a consumer-driven product, and the story behind these sandals is one of a calling to heal. VIONIC BEACH is the brainchild of a beach and surf loving brand founder who recognized the importance of evolving the feel and performance of the iconic beach flip flop. He set out to translate the natural feel of sand under your feet through patented support technology infused into the contours of their molded soles, and, by design, a healthy and comfortable alternative to flat rubber flip flops was born. Find out more about how VIONIC gives back in their endless community service efforts here.
One thing we know for sure, our VIONIC flip flops stood the test of our salty, surf excursion in every way. With our toes safe from the blazing sun and sand, we're sending a big THANK YOU to VIONIC for helping create an amazing trip for our team of bold travelers and awesome creatives. Looking forward to another adventure under the sun!
