The Sole Workshop Reviews 34

High quality craftsmanship. The sandals just feel amazing. It’s hard to describe but you can definitely tell they are made with love and from great materials.

My last pair of handcrafted sandals lasted well over 20 years and although I haven’t used these that much yet I can tell these will last a long time, too.

As a Florida native in a beach community, I live in flip flops. These are, without a doubt, the best I’ve ever worn. They have top-notch quality and a classic design. Just as important, Bill is super committed to customer service. I now have them in two colors. 10 out of 10.

Beautiful flipflops hand made in Europe. Send in time overall and the hand written note is a nice touch.

These are premium flip flops/thongs. I wanted to really give myself time to wear them a while before reviewing, so it's been a couple of months since my purchase. The materials are high quality. If you've gotten used to flip flops with thick bottoms, there will be an adjustment, and you might not like it in the end. For me, it was fine. I am very happy, too, to have these not made in a sweatshop somewhere.

Extremely well made sandal. I'm very happy with the quality and fit. Do you need to spend over $200 sandals? Probably not but they are better than any mass produced sandal and I expect it to last many years. I'd buy again if I ever lost them.

Awesome quality, fits perfectly to size and is wide!

Comfortable. High quality. Ordered a size down (usually a 12 US) and they fit perfect. Barely any break in. Quality you can see and feel.

As an avid sandal wearer, I needed a new pair and my normal amazing Olukai leather sandals didn't seem what I wanted again. Realizing that not many people make a Bespoke sandal, there was nobody in Canada and a few in USA, but luckily I found Bill in Belgium.
I watched his videos and knew that was a real sandal. Top notch quality with an amazing soft feel. I've had them for 1.5 years and feel so perfect on my feet. I am proud to own a pair of these. Thanks Bill!

High quality craftsmanship, premium materials

These are expertly made sandals. You can tell that right from the start when you remove them from the minimalist, but clearly small workshop-style, packaging. They even included a small handwritten note saying thank you. Really nice touch!
The sandals definitely need to be broken in, as they are made with high end materials and real leather, so I've been wearing them around the house (per recommendation from The Sole Workshop). The main area that's been taking the longest to break in is the strap between the toes. I assume this is the case for most people. But the fit is perfect, the colors are exactly what I was hoping for, and the beds are more or less conforming to my foot, exactly as advertised. I'm planning to have these for decades and will absolutely get them re-soled when the time comes. By far the most money I've ever spent on sandals/flip-flops, but I have zero regrets. Handmade, carefully crafted products like these often get overlooked in our society of cheap, rapidly produced replicas that are essentially throw-away items. Just save your pennies and buy a pair of flip-flops you'll love for decades to come.

This is my second pair of flip flops from the Sole Workshop - I love them and have recommended to friends - they are great looking and well worth the price to get a pair of flip flops with the amazing quality of materials and craftsmanship - they really stand out compared to the mass produced flip flops most people are wearing.

Enjoying the bespoke, yet simple beauty and comfort of my new sandals!

Thanks

I like the foot size printout to determine the correct sizing. Still waiting on my sandals to be shipped. Excited to get them.

This was my second pair of flip flops from Bill - this time I asked him to make me a thin-soled minimalist/barefoot pair. They came out absolutely fantastic and fit absolutely perfectly, essential for good posture in flip flops!!!
I have spent my entire adult life looking for a robust and perfect-fitting flip flop, and these are it. Beautifully stitched as well.
Thanks Bill!

Great customer service and excellent product. The most comfortable shoes I have ever had!

I love my flip flops, they are so sturdy and elegant at the same time. I love that they have been handcrafted by a friend. These soles make buying local a true joy!
