Great Indian sandles. I'll get years of wear out of them. Cut the thong strap off as it's too much material between the toes. Comfortable and they're softening up as I wear them.
The sale price was a instigater too.

Haven't treated myself to a pair of these water buffalo sandles for a few years. Saw they were on sale for 60% off, had to order a pair for myself and adult son. I ordered a pair in the lighter color, because I haven't seen this color before, love'm ! They soften up after a few wearings. Always have to cut off the strap from the instep to the toe ring, too much leather between the toes. It hurt. But I'm thrilled to own a pair once again.

I ordered these sandals, because I used to buy a pair every summer for many years. It is too cold to wear them right now, but soon I will be breaking them in.

These sandals are improved. They have an extra heel which will not shred on concrete. Tip: stand in water for 2 minutes then when you walk in them the sandals will perfectly conform to your feet! Happy trucking.
Bob B.
Love em fit great arrived on time as promised and very comfortable.
Jenni W.
I love them, but they need a lot of work because they hurt my toes lol looking forward to breaking them in though
Nancy B.
Very well made quick delivery, very happy
Jennifer M.
Had these in middle school....thrilled when I found them! Did the 3 min soaK and now they r completely molded to my foot. So comfortable...I cannot wait to wear them out!
Janice C.
I am waiting to wear them. It is still to cold to wear. I love them. I got 2 pair one for me and one for my daughter.
Sydney A.
Just like I used to buy at Cost Plus in "The City" back in the 60's!!!!
Craig P.
I'm an old hippie. I remember these from the late 60s along with bell-bottom jeans and chambray work shirts. I almost purchased a pair from an Indian market about 10 years ago in LA. I didn't own a pair back in the day, but since I'm proud of my hippie heritage, I like that I own this pair. They are about as 1960s hippie as it gets.
Sheryl E.
Came within a week and exactly as advertised
Leslie S.
Comfortable, looks good, recommend to others for sure
elena n.
I love my sandals. They are well made and fit perfectly. I had a pair when I was a teenager and had always wanted another pair. I would definitely recommend these to anyone.
Debbie W.
Thank you Hippie Shop!!! I loved these sandals as a teen and still love them 40+ years later! I was so happy to see them available to purchase and the price was extremely reasonable! I think I only paid a few dollars less way back when! The quality has improved, too! Again, thank you Hippie Shop!
Mike G.
Excellent sandles.
Lynn H.
I love these sandals.
Annie P.
The sandals came within a few days, which is awesome and the sandals were just how I remembered them in the 70’s. They fit really good and they will be my go to sandals all summer
Colleen R.
I've worn them around the house as it's cold and rainy (still have snow on the ground) here in Jersey....can't wait to wear them in the warm weather!
Bonita H.
Just like old times!
Mark P.
Love my new sandals! They really take me back.

They smell so rich & authentic. Take just a little breaking in. What awesome craftsmanship.
Alicia Dawn M.
Love them. Can't wait to wear them.
Diann O.
I wear a size 7 but in these sandals I wear a 5
Karen S.
The sandals were exactly what I wanted. Comfortable and accurate sizing
Mia M.
I wear a sz 10 women's and a sz 8 in men's. The sizing chart is accurate; very helpful. I'm a perfect sz 7 in the sandals. I can't wait for the snow to melt!
Catherine H.
I absolutely love these Water Buffalo Sandals ! Exact same thing as the ones I wore in the 60's . You must put them on & get them wet and wear until dry to get a wonderful fit to YOUR foot , that's how we did during the the hippie day ❤❤❤ I'm a size 10 & purchased a size 7 , perfect ! I've looked for these for years , so I bought 3 pairs . Over the moon happy hippie here
Tammy C.
Beautiful sandals but ordered wrong size they run big I got a 7 and I need 6 and a half
Debbie M.
These hard to find sandals are classics and especially at this price. They arrive in a cool muslin bag which is great for taking these in a suitcase.
They are quite stiff when they are new but soaking them in warm water for a few minutes then wearing them around until they’re dry is the key to a perfect fit. Plan to have them for a really long time... they never seem to wear out❣️
Sheryl G.
The sandals look great, it’s too cold right now to wear them.
Toni A.
Love them. Wear them everywhere. Always wore flip flops before but these are my new go to. Very sturdy and don't have to worry about them breaking. Greatest investment i made very pleased.
anne a.
Absolutely fabulous. They feel and look exactly like the ones i had in my “hippie” days. Best is that these have a tiny heel which allows you to walk easier. Recommend them to everyone. Customer service was also very accommodating. I was choosing between sizes. Extremely happy with my purchase
Bonnie P.
I just love these sandals
Margo M.
I fell in love with these sandals years ago. I didn’t know how to get a pair til I finally found this shop online. I adore them but it’s winter & snow on the ground. I can not wear them now or do as asked so they mold to my feet.Soon as it warms up I will b wearing them.
Tammy M.
Thank you for all your help in ordering the correct size. They are exactly what I was hoping for. . Love love love them. But can't break them in until it warm up here in Michigan. I'd share a picture but it's winter in michigan . I will be wearing them to the big Hippy festival in Kamazoo Mich June 5 the
Kathy K.
I love these sandals! I just stepped into water and wha-la.....perfect fit!
Pamela A.
Perfect size! I love them!
Geri C.
I absolutely love this Sandles I wore them back in the 70’s so happy to find them again
Luecella T.
For whatever reasons, I received the color tan instead of the requested brown.
No problem..I absolutely love the Water Buffalo Sandals!
The size is perfect, too!
Linda P.
Every time I order from HIPPIE I get my order in days not weeks. The products are amazing and worth everything they ask for them. I am an original WOODSTOCK participant. Order, order you will be very happy.
Jane N.
Great craftsmanship & fit perfectly. They arrived quickly. I would recommend buying a pair!!✌
Rose B.
Waiting to wear them when I can shape them with water. I do love them as I bought two pair. They are true to size.
Jaki S.
I like my water buffalo sandals
Cristal N.
Great shoes to just slip on! They are leather so definitely need to be worked in, but when they do they will feel like you are wearing nothing ☮✌
Tina R.
I've been looking all over for the water buffalo sandals. They came earlier then when they told me was very happy with them I haven't been able to wear them yet but I can't wait to. Thank you.
Barb Y.
The sandals arrived right as promised, within a week of ordering. They came in a fabric bag (nice touch), inside a nice box. The quality of the sandals were better than I remembered the sandals I wore non stop in the 70's. They did, however run big. I wear size nine in all the shoes I buy, but I could not keep them on my feet. They have returned them so the hippies at your store can send me a pair of size 8. Looking forward to wearing them! Thanks again!
Clydis B.
Right now we have 10 inches of snow so wearing these flip JCs is kinda hard to break in. Will come back when I can Break in and comment.
Denise K.
Shipped in just a few days. Absolutely the right size. Always kept in contact! Can't say enough nice things about this company!
Ray G.
Received it real fast and everything I expected, good quality and awesome fit, thanks
Jennifer B.
I love the sandels! Looking forward to the season to wear them!

Ok these are the coolest sandals in the world. ✌ ☮️ Love them really love them! I am an 8 1/2 shoe size. Ordered the size 5. Looks great, feels great, and fits great.
Lori D.
Fast delivery. I followed the directions about getting them wet and they molded to my feet like they said they would. Now I can't wait until they get REALLY broken in!! LOVE THEM!!!!
Jaki S.
I purchased a pair in a size 6 and a size 7 because everytime i buy shoes online there is always a problem. I wore the 6 and they fit
Pam T.
I had a pair in 1972... these are exactly the same. Right down to getting them wet and wearing to get a custom fit. I couldn't be happier. I wear size 6 shoes and got the size 5 using the measurements shown. They fit great. What a trip down memory lane.
Vickie W.
I’ve loved these sandals since the 70s❣️❣️❣️
Veronica N.
I'm 62 and felt 16yrs old again ♀️
Judith M.
Great Pair if Sandels. It’s like they never left style. Nicely made. Will wear very nice with everything❤️
Dot B.
These are awesome sandals. Very well made. I ordered size 7 because of high instep...unfortunately they are way too long. May soak in saddle soap.
Louie S.
Had to exchange some sandals for size reasons. The contact, follow through and exchange with your company was outstanding. I am most definitely a repeat customer.
Charles M.
They are nicer than I thought they would be.
Marlene M.
They fit well! But one needs to get them wet so they will fit better! Haven’t had a chance to do that! Need to wait until it gets warmer!
Vicki T.
Great sandals just like i remember at a great price. Shopped promptly with no hassles.
Robert W.
Fast service. Just like they were said to be. Very nice construction. Nice leather.
Vickey B.
It's February, so I haven't had a chance to wear them yet. But, they look and feel very sturdy and well made. I'm looking forward to warmer weather, when I can try them out.
Sondra A.
The Hippie Shop was so accommodating and helpful in exchanging my sandals for a smaller size.
Lynn M.
Love the response in getting me the Sandles less than a week
Connie D.
Memories of a wonderful, peaceful age.
Susananne R.
For the young ones out there, the best way to break them in is to dunk in water for a minute or two then slip them on your feet and wear until dry. Extra tip score the bottoms for a non slide walk.
Sarah H.
I got the sandals wet and wore them to help them conform better to my feet. They are comfortable and really pretty. Ordering was easy and shipping was quick.
Debbie G.
Fast shipping. Love my sandals.
Peggy L.
My husband has been looking for these. I finally got to your website. Great price, awesome sandals. He loves them. Bought 2 pair for him and 1 for me. Delivery was very quick. Thank you. Oh can we get another sticker?
Polly A.
Love love love my Water Buffalo Sandals! Just like the ones I had 40+ years ago! Shipping was fast and I am thrilled with them!!! Just need warm weather!

I love them. I had a pair when I was in my teens. I'm now 55. I'm glad I found your site.
Anne F.
Love them! Real leather but can't soak them until Summer..come on Summer! Can't wait!
Alvin H.
Hell yeah!Could not be happier!
Karen P.
They run a little small ,exchange was very quick! My 66 year old feet don’t look as cute as my 16 year old feet but they are a fun piece of nostalgia to have. Can’t wait to wet them down and mold them to my foot !
Renee R.
Love the sandals! I had a pair when I was a teenager (back in the day!). Haven’t worn them yet since there is snow on the ground, but will update you when I wear them & get them broke in!!
Danielle S.
Great sandals! I’m usually a 7.5 in woman’s shoes and I ordered the size 5 and they fit perfectly. Pro tip from my hippie grandma: Get them really wet and wear them around so they get a nice shape and fit better!
Karen B.
These are really cute. Size is perfect. Price awesome!
Lauri Z.
As I said in previous review I ordered these in a 7 my normal size whoa! the were huge!
Ladies with our tiny dancer feet take note! Customer service was Ahhhhhmazing! From the time I ordered Tuesday had them by Friday (WOW!) sent the 7 back Saturday I was wearing a size 6 by the next Friday! WHAAAAT? They fit great well made can't wait to run around NOLA in these bad boys. I'm actually going to order another pair cuz I will wear them forever!
Spend your money here folks you won't be sorry! Did I mention they were $20 that's not even enough for anything anymore especially this COOL! Oh and support US business and shop small, they need us! And I want more groovy stuff!
Mitch L.
Just like i remember them. bought four more pair just in case they disappear again.
Donald H.
Comfortable summer shoes by once a year
Patricia L.
These were a gift. It would have been helpful if you would have enclosed some thing that tells how to properly treat the sandals so that they fit the form of your foot. I am planning on purchasing a pair for myself. You may consider adding this to your service.
Carlos M.
excuse the toe nails, been confined for months.
Geri C.
The order came on time very happy about that. Love the shoes. But I have to send them back to exchange for a smaller size. Hope I get them back as quick as I got them. I would refer anyone to the Hippie Store!
Ruby C.
Just like the 60’s and 70’s. Very good quality.
Pam M.
Very nice and comfy Just like I remember when I was 14 yr old Yes a yippie from a hippie
Steffon P.
Love the sandals I bought another pair,very comfortable after breaking them in
Heidi W.
I haven't soaked them yet but they look like they'll fit fine. I love these & wore them in the 70's! The only issue was what size to get. I wear a 10 & purchased a 8.
Bryan c.
Perfect fit ,great look
Joseph S.
Well made like them
