**This is not a sponsored blog post. I just love these shoes!**
Have wanted to buy a pair of Bare Traps shoes for years, but they were always more than I wanted to spend, even on sale.
They’re kind of funky looking — but cute — flats – with rounded toes. Just the kind of footwear I like!
I was lucky enough to find two pairs of Bare Traps sandals a few weeks ago, both my size, in a local thrift store. One pair was brown and the other one was navy (just the color sandals I’d been seeking to replace a pair that wore out; navy sandals are tough to find!)
After giving them a Lysol cleanup, I wore both pairs to work the following week. They’re incredibly comfortable – and have a highly padded interior and heel that makes it feel like you’re walking on cushions.
In addition to being the most comfy sandals I’ve ever worn, they were a bargain of a lifetime. The brown sandals were $3.99 and the navy ones were $5.99 (don’t ask me why the prices were different at the same store!)
Bare Traps shoes generally sell for about $60 a pair retail. My bargain buy resulted in a savings of approximately $110!
I’m a Bare Traps believer now. Try a pair and let me know if you like them, too!
