I bought a new pair of Rainbows and I know they're super comfortable once they break in (owned a pair for awhile until someone took them at the pool).

I remember them being tough to break in but shite they murdered my feet yesterday I have 4 good sized blisters from the straps.
Any tips to wear the straps in quicker or do I just have to suck it up until they wear in?

this. Wear them while sitting around the house for awhile before walking a ton in them.

Cut out pieces of moleskin and stick on the spots that rub

I got a new pair last week and for the first 5 or so days when I got home from work I would take off my shoes and put the flip flops on while I was sitting around watching tv. Not walking. Just wanted to stretch them out. Shouldn't get blisters from lying around.

Rainbow flip flops are the GOAT of flip flops by the way

Stolen? Or taken by accident?

B/c I wonder who would steal used flip flops. That is gross.
