“These look and feel great but to obviously disguise the odour of the rubber they have been treated with an overpowering perfume. It’s full on! I’ve washed, sunned, and aired them but they still stink! They were bought to take on holidays but I can’t put these in a suitcase-everything will reek! People walk past them at the door and the smell literally stops them in their tracks. “What is that smell?!”
Don’t do it. Not worth it.”
Hi Rosanne,
Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review.
I'm so sorry that your new Sanderlings are putting out such a strong fragrance, that sounds very unpleasant.
We have called and emailed you, so please give us a call back on (03) 9509 5771 or respond to our email.
Looking forward to getting this resolved for you!
Kind regards,
the Bared team xx
“This is the third colour I’ve bought of these. Dress them up or down, pair with a dress or jeans. I have a wide foot and they’re super comfy. Just wondering what colour I’ll buy next…”
“Took several weeks of research to finally decide and purchase these. They arrived promptly (I’m in the US and the sandals shipped from AUS) in a terry cloth zip bag. What a novel concept! No shoe box! They also seem to have this nice scent to them - not sure what that’s about but I don’t mind it at all.
Ok so the look is low profile and quite elegant, but it feels like a sturdy sandal. It’s not heavy, but you can tell it has some inner components that make it durable. The buckle is perfect to elevate it from plain to noticeable. I’ve walked in these sandals all summer, around Washington DC and for weeks in the Canary Islands. They are versatile as it gets and I still feel so happy inside when I look at them. So cute!”
“Hard to believe these are rubber!
This is my second pair as I found myself grabbing my black so often this summer.
Love the colour, a beautiful green neutral. The brass accents makes it a sandal you can dress up too.”
“I bought a pair of Sanderlings while on holiday in Melbourne and I did not regret it! These are my second pair of Bared shoes and they are just as comfortable and supportive as my first. I wore them for the remainder of my holiday, walking about 5-8km each day and never had any discomfort, pain or blisters. I have wide feet and the top strap is not tight and surprisingly does not rub my toes like standard shoes. They're also very easy to clean and oddly enough, have a really nice rose-like scent! Would definitely recommend these for day to day wear.”
