Royal Elastics Grata

I’ve been rocking the Royal Elastic Grata’s for a few weeks now, and today I’ll officially give them my “fly footwear” nod of approval. They’re built almost entirely out of elastic, which gives a snug yet comfertable fit, which feels like you’re walking around in socks. The sole is a tough molded rubber, and a small leather flap on the heel makes it easier pulling them on and off. They feel Asian in design–they’re great for airports, easy at security– and classic enough to wear dressed up. They seem to be conversation starters, but also when worn with pants are discreet enough to just look like normal slip-ons.
