Famolare

The iconic 70's fashion brand is back baby! Ready to make waves with the most comfortable and cool shoes. With 40 patents for footwear innovation, Famolare paved the way for many companies developing performance footwear. Nike and others cite Famolare patents as "prior art" in over 200 patent applications. Famolare had a big influence on Southern California beach and fashion subculture youth. As young girls growing up in the 70's and 80's, many females shared an identity that was somewhat wrapped in the positive energy and emerging female empowerment that surrounded the Famolare brand. Wearing Famolare made many girls and women felt like they could accomplish anything they set their minds to as they worked for causes to empower women, marched for miles to push for civil rights, support peace, and to protect the environment. Well today, 50 years later, not much has changed. The world needs females now more than ever to continue to make waves together. To the generations that follow this one, though what you stand for is more important than what you stand in, if you're anything like your mother and grandmother when they were your age, you'll appreciate walking on Famolare waves just like they did.

I got a pair of the Slide N Sleek, perfect for Florida! Leather slide-on flatform sandals with open back. Leather upper. Leather lining. Padded leather insole. Recyclable rubber outsole. Nickel free buckles. Handcrafted in North America from locally derived components. Made in factories that pay a living wage. Short transport - low carbon footprint. Renewable and recyclable components. Cute. So comfortable! Can be dressy or casual. What more could a girl ask for? Great for this holiday season!
