Sandals get a Style Injection with Dopie

Correct me if I’m wrong, but you either love sandals or you positively hate them and, in truth, I personally fall very much in the latter category – though this probably has more to do with the fact that I rate feet as being just about the most unappealing part of the human body.

Having said that, I can see why sandals would appeal to others without a curious aversion to feet though it must be said that the basic design of your everyday sandal is hardly the most inspiring of forms. That could be about to change, however, thanks to this new take on sandal design known as the Dopie.

Apparently the result of a ‘search for a sandal in a simpler and purer form’, the Dopie, apart from having a cool name, are manufactured from EVA and rubber so as to provide comfort promoting flexibility whist being light and are designed to remain firmly attached to your feet courtesy of a sole that folds up between the toes. And, for those new to wearing Dopies they even come with a detachable strap to assist beginners with learning how to wear them.

Dopie Designer Sandals

From a design perspective we love the look, however, as to whether they are comfortable, we’ll have to reserve judgement - though we remain somewhat unconvinced. That said, we don’t doubt that they might well prove particularly popular with the surfer crowd.

These Terra Plana Dopie Sandals come in a wide range of colours and retail for £30 ($59 / €44).
