Why Shein's Synthetic Shoes Are Ideal For Travelling - Also Called Slip on Clogs, or Flat Mules Outfit 476

  I have two favorite types of shoes for travelling. I mostly wear sandals which have hook and loop (Velcro or touch and close). You can take them off fast. But now I am adding slip on shoes, synthetic clogs with pull forward, pull back, straps, flat mules

At Airport Security Checks

I have to take off shoes or sandals at security. Put them in the box which x-rays them. Or remove them when something goes ping because of a metal buckle on my sandals, belt, or bra.

You can put them back on fast. They expand when your feet swell in the heat when going for a summer holiday. Or when your feet shrink, you can tighten.

The real deal, Crocs, can be expensive, if you want full price this year's latest design and colour. They are expensive in department stores in Singapore, even last year's model and colour, in the sale.

I looked on ebay and Shein. Their marketing has me, my email, in their sights, for emails, imploring me to buy now, during sale time.

Guess what colour I was looking for? (Hint, I already pink.)

Synthetic Sandals For Travel

Red Shein Shoes.

The colour of these is a cross between pink and red. Water melon - to me that means red. 

Now, to my collection of touch and close sandals I have added another type of quick on quick off shoe. Crocs, and similar 2 Surf.  My latest are YY162 from Shein, in red, with a black motif in the centre front. 

The same flexible bar which goes forward, or back, to allow instant on-off,. Alternatively behind your ankle, for more security.

My Review

The shoes are slightly smaller than size 4 from brands Croc and 2Surf. Also a more rounded toe. The advantage is that they look more elegant. My husband thought my other similar shoes were clompy. He did not say that about these, just 'that's the style you like.:

As a travelling shoe, they have the advantage that you can wear them on the beach. Protect your feet from hot sand. Keep at bay anything you might tread on in the sand or water's edge.

In the bedroom 

In the bedroom the footwear protects your toes. The shoes or sandals, or slippers, whatever you like to call them, save you from kicking the bedpost, which could be wooden or metal. 

British Slippers - Soft Shoes For Indoors

Incidentally, what the British call slippers, are soft shoes, backless or enclosed. Slipper may be as high as ankle boots, so long as they are soft and slip on and off fast.

Indian Slippers - Backless Shoes Outdoors or Indoors

Indians say slippers for any indoor or outdoor shoe which slips on. Importantly, they include plastic type backless and toeless sandals which the British call flip-flops. (Australians call them thongs) .

In Restaurants

 So, synthetic sandals, which, unlike organic leather, are safe from disintegrating in the rain, or puddles, or seashore. 

The bulky toe protection also helps when you kick your feet out against table legs and table central support pillars in restaurants.

I ordered

Watermelon Pink / 4.5

GBP £6.25

I did not pay postage because I ordered the shoes with my three cape blazers. I reached the minimum spend of fifty pounds needed for discount or free postage.

Shein is in many countries. With most multi-national companies, the website usually shows the country where your original order was placed or where your profile was established. You can have two or more addresses listed, and choose which is the one for your delivery. This may change the postage cost. If you are travelling back home, whilst away you can order from the website and get the item to be send for your arrival.
