Thread: Aruba's outdoor sandals

Anyone have these? I like her leather sandals and need some shoes for some outdoor gigs and I have coming up. Wondering if the black footbed on these is rubber or if it's dyed leather?

Torn if it'd look better (or weird/distracting) to have flesh tone leather loops, laces (or gold/silver) & oak tan footbed with a black rubber sole, my thinking to blend with the foot, or just go with a solid black shoe with whatever color loops and laces, thinking would the sole be distracting if it was the only dark bit on a light colored shoe. Need something for outdoors but I want it versitile, too. Can a black sandal with silver/gold loops & laces be worn with light colored costumes without looking out of place or distracting to the audience?

Can anyone tell me how thin the rubber soles are on these?

i have a pair with black rubber soles and silver loops/laces. i don't think it looks weird with light colored costumes, mainly because your foot covers most of the black. i don't think i have any pics of my feet! idk how thick the soles are, but i can look tonight when i get home.

That'd be awesome, thank you!

mine are a smidge thinner than a quarter inch.

just have to add that i love aruba! she's an absolute love, and she makes a quality product

Thank you emtink! Now I just need to decide between solid black or an oak tan footbed with the black sole. I agree, I like her shoes too.
