Now that we’re in the final stretch of summer, I’m starting to steer away from my typical summer flip flop in favor of something that will take me into fall. Shoes I can wear farther than the pool deck but are still lightweight and comfortable.
I have a few pair of cute late summer/fall flats, but here’s my problem with my flats. Apologies in advance if this is TMI, but they all STINK! I can wear them a few times but then they start to smell. I just can’t wear shoes without socks and expect to be able to wear them more than a few times. So when I heard about these shoes that will not smell–I had to check them out.
Mohinders makes hand-made leather flats and backless slippers with a secret weapon–they won’t smell! I’ve had mine a few weeks now and they aren’t stinky yet! There has been no need to try to mask the smell with baby powder (my go-to when I’m trying to get another few uses out of my shoes–even though it doesn’t really work!)
What I love as much as their scent is the comfort. Since the Mohinders flats are made to fit tight and then form to your foot, you get a shoe that fits your foot better than most. The cushioned foot bed helps keep them comfortable when you’re going to be walking a bit. And the rubber sole helps keep me from slipping.
And, in case you need another reason to give them a try, Mohinders sources their shoes directly from artisans in rural India. Which means they are providing jobs for people who may otherwise live in poverty. So you can look good, feel good and do good! Love it!

August 21, 2016 at 10:01 pmYes! I was just thinking that they remind me a bit of my old huarache sandals, too! But way nicer!
