Roxy keeps it simple with this no frills pair of Palm Beach flip flops.
The surf brand does its best to stamp its identity on the classic flip flop style. The sole is covered in an abstract wave logo print, and the logo appears again on an accent near your toes. It might seem like branding overkill, but the logo charm is the only one we'll see when these flip flops are on your feet.
That's both a blessing and a curse for me. While too many symbols would seem too much, the medallion alone doesn't excite me. It's a shame Roxy hasn't given the Palm Beach some interesting straps or a wedge sole to liven things up.
The cheap materials used here keep the price down to around $20, but I'd rather have a little more luxury. The rubber and PVC strap is conveniently waterproof, but it's likely to rub against bare feet if worn all day. I'm more enthusiastic about the ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) sole which will give more shock protection than most flip flops at this price point.
While these aren't really an expensive pair of flip flops, I'm still not sure Roxy gives us enough for our dollar. I can find a similar set at Wal-mart for a couple of dollars after all. But if the logo matters, the Palm Beach may be worth the extra pennies.
