I just got back from a two week trip to New Zealand. What an incredible country. The best way for me to describe it is: "Lake Tahoe meets Hawaii". It’s that amazing of a place. We toured the South Island and drew a TON of inspiration from the Kiwi culture as well as spoke with dozens of folks who live in flops year round.
During that same time Rao has been focusing efforts on the south-west market of the US. Specifically Texas. We will have a lot more on that effort shortly.


When sorting and packing my ski equipment this morning I didn’t think twice about tossing in a pair of Common Soles flip-flops. I always travel with a pair of flip-flops, no matter where I go. Beach, mountains, business trip, or grandma’s house; like my tooth-brush and a pair of board-shorts, a good pair of flip-flops always accompanies me.
