RESOURCEFUL CREATIONS SINCE 2009.

ABOUT THE BRAND

Founded by Kyle Parsons from San Francisco, on his first surf trip to Bali in 2004. The sandals he was wearing at the time broke, so Kyle made a pair of flip flops from old tyres, little did he know it would become his life's passion.

We dedicated the last 15 years to being the environmental keepers of the future. We merged artisan skill with corrective impact, developing a laborious shoe making process that transforms tyres to soles by hand.

A breakthrough technology was needed that could address mass scale. Indosole aspired to double growth while significantly reducing global negative impact.

Super comfortable!

These flip flops are much better than any of the more widely known brands. They have an arch so your foot feels supported … it feels like walking in a real sandal or shoe. Very well designed!

Exellent Product!

This is my 4th pair of ESSENTLS Flip Flops. I have them in black, blue, green, and brown. They are a great everyday, anywhere flip flop. Growing up in Hawaii, everyone wears rubber "slippahs" or flip flops, but these are much more comfortable, much more sturdy, and more stylish. No complaints whatsoever!

Very Functional!

I've had my pair for 2+ years now and I've worn them pretty hard, but they're still going really strong and are overall a great pair of footwear!

Just what I Wanted

These flips are just what I wanted. A simple flip in brown with a solid sole. Excellent feel.🤙

Finally sturdy, stylish and extremely comfortable Flip-flops

I only order Indosole flip flops any more. These sandals are designed with minimal but quality support for a more “barefoot feel” while still capturing the entire foot shape such as a birkinstock would. Ive never been a fan of thick straps on Mens sandals as they make feet look bulky, clunky and dorky. The strap on these are not too thin but not to thick. You will want to wear these things all day.

Perfect, doing this again

I bought a pair of Indosole flip flops a year and a half ago and use them almost daily, going in an out of the house for any chores here or at the mountain cabin or on the beach. They are finally starting to show a bit of wear so I bought a second contrasting color pair to have as a back up. I may end up with a third, because I think I have stumbled onto a really great thing here. Comfortable, attractive, practical, sustainable, and long wearing.

Super!

I have two pair of my own and decided hubby needed some. He LOVES them. He felt a bit of rubbing at the top of his foot for about a minute...now they feel like part of his foot. We live on Maui and wear "slippers" all the time, year round. We will both always have a pair (at least) of Indosoles!

Great Customer Service

I chose this company for their efforts on sustainability but will return for the customer service. I bought a 9, which is the size I use for a regular pair of shoes, but they were really small for a pair of flip-flops. I had just 7 days until I was leaving for a trip, needed these shoes in a hurry. Their CS went above and beyond to ensure that I got them before I left.

A good flop

Happy with these shoes. I like the minimalist look and they are great around water. They dry quick and don’t squeak too much.

Dress 'em up or dress 'em down

I now how two pairs of these flip flops. They are very durable and will take you from the beach to a night out. Tee shirt and boardies or polo and shorts, these will serve your purpose.

We LOVE them!

We live on Kaua’i and everyone pretty much goes barefoot or wears Locals (slippahs). My husband goes through many pairs a year. I couldn’t take it anymore. They are made out to crappy plastic and don’t last very long & we have a serious landfill issue here on the island.
I had already purchased 2 pairs of Indosole ‘slippahs’ for myself and my husband starting wearing them (even though a little small for him).
I love how durable these slippers are and they are upcycled from other materials that would otherwise go to the landfill. I love the arch support (would like that to be a little bigger).
Another issue with Locals and Havianas (another brand sold here and very popular) is that they ‘blow out’ very easily, rendering them useless and thrown away. I see no sign of this happening with the Indosoles.
I wish more stores on Kaua’i sold these. I’ve only found one store in Kapaa that has them, limited choices, colors and sizes. I think these would fly off the shelves if they were in stores down in Hanalei.

Don’t leave home without’em

Hands down the best flip Flops I’ve found in the 50+ years I’ve been surfing. By the way this is my 3rd pair😊 Thank you for saving the planet

Flip flop review

I think this is my fifth pair and, unfortunately, the size (13-14) fits smaller than my old ones!

Not enough space!

Wonderful product, but design leaves too little room for height of feet. My feet wore blisters in the tops of my feet, and were unusable

My favorites

I’ve been wearing flip flops all my life, and I have always liked the basic rubbers; ie Quiksilver, Billabong,Ruca etc. I have to say these are my favorites without a doubt. They are the most comfortable and best looking basic thong and a great value as long as they last!

My favorite sandals! I have a lot of shoes but wear these 60-70% of my day to day

This is my third pair in the past few years! My last pair before this one (which I'm still using) is still being used and is molded so nicely to my feet but I decided to get a fresh pair since the thong/strap had loosened up over the last 3 years, and all-around the world/ country! Just needed to refresh and get 2 new pairs that I'm sure will keep me going for another 2-4 years.*My first pair got chewed by my friend's bigger dog but I kept using it with over half the strap chewed through for over another year before I went to pair 2 ;)

Look great, but straps are a little rough on the feet

Straps caused blisters because they are not soft.

They changed something great

I’ve been wearing and hyping Indosole for over a decade. As someone who lives in sandals I’ve always loved the durable recycled souls and minimal but supportive footbed. Which makes me sad to say in this new batch they’ve changed the formula I guess, maybe it’s for profit or maybe they can’t get what they had… but I just got my newest pair and they are total crap. The straps are much tighter and already falling apart. The footbed feels different and cheap. I bought an older pair on clearance and they fit just like they always have. These new ones are total crap and I would not recommend them to anyone, they’re perfect for tourists looking for a gimmick. It breaks my heart to write this but this company has truly lost its way. Please go back to the old materials, I’m sure your loyal customers will play the difference, I would. But you’ve lost a loyal customer.
