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.
Robbie J.
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

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!

These are an excellent product. Well made of strong leather. I’d been looking for another pair for many years...so glad I finally found 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!
Anne G.
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
Debra J.
I wore these shoes as a teenager and I've looked for over 20 years for them and finally found him a couple weeks ago they came in a really nice bag they fit perfectly even though I haven't got them wet and warm yet I love them in fact I'm getting ready to order a pair for a good friend of mine thank you,
Debra Jacks
troy W.
my wife loves everything.
Penny S.
Had a pair when I was a lot young - wore them till they wore out. So happy they are back - Love them.
Margaret P.
I love it but I ordered the wrong size. I will be reordering them as they are so comfortable. For those of u from the 60's & 70's YES this is the ORIGINAL BUFFALI HIDE SANDLES AND THEY ROCK!!
Denise R.
Love these shoes so much bought my mom a pair. She has been looking for this style handmade shoe. I can’t wait to see her face when I give her hers. We now have matching shoes stoked about this!
Lisa C.
I tried these on and they fit perfect. Im going to keep them.
LINDA K.
I loved these shoes in the 70s and still love them. After receiving my 1st order, my sister insisted, I order her 2 pairs, same size, 8. So I also ordered another pair for me. 3 pairs of size 8s arrived. One pair was bigger. Odd but still ok. Each pair are different shades of brown. Each pair is made by the same person, so it works out. BREAKING them in was easier than in 1978. I soaked them 3 hours, I put them on wet, I did my outside animal feeding and walked around for about an hour. The knot was still killing my big toe. I wet them again and put a heavy duty clamp on the knot. Next day they were perfect. My sister wants me to break hers in too. I love her, so I will.
Juanita W.
I love them thanks
Laurie P.
Love sandals..I have been looking everywhere and no one sells them...it would be awesome if you carried smaller ladies sizes...
mark r.
All is well.
Great selection, groovy stuff.
Christopher S.
Really, really high quality foot wear. These are made to take a beating and last!
Marvis H.
Very fast service! Had to change the size before it left the warehouse. Very accommodating and they shipped the correct size for me. (I failed to read the size info before ordering. :))
Maureen K.
I love these shoes. They brought memories of my mother, in the 60s, wearing them and me, with my tiny feet, feeling her warmth.
Robert S.
The JCs look and feel just like the ones I used to have at Ramey AFB, Puerto Rico in the late 60s and early 70s. Brought back lots of fond memories. Thanks so much!
Gary M.
These Buffalo Sandals are very close to the ones I wore in 1968. A little neatsfoot oil and they will be my favorites.
Elizabeth L.
I love these sandals. I wore my previous one out, had it repaired, and wore them until they literally fell apart. I am thrilled to have a new pair! I wore these sandals back during the hippie era and I loved them then and I love them now. For the longest time I never saw them and finally I came across the Hippie Shop website. It really is a nostalgic site with items I thought were forever gone. I highly recommend spending some time on their page and maybe you'll find something you loved having from back in the day.
