Our gas fireplace is on a remote thermostat, which only turns on when it is REALLY cold outside. Unfortunately, it has been popping on more than I would like the last few weeks, which means we can kiss summer goodbye.
Sanuk, the master of comfy and warm shoes sandals, knows your little toes (or big) need to be warm this winter, and have made the Kyoto Chill (MSRP $85) just for you.
The Kyoto is not your typical Sanuk Sidewalk Surfer. It has been beefed up with Sanuk’s partnership with the fabric company Sunbrella. You can read about this happy marriage here. What it means your us is that your favorite Sanuk can now be made in a fade proof and water resistant material. Perfect for a damp, snowy, cold winter…
I’m impressed with the quality of the material, and you can feel the sandal has a sturdier construction than previous models. I knew right out of the package that the Kyoto was going to be a staple for me this winter, especially with the faux fur liner.
In fact, here are my top 10 uses for the Kyoto in the winter:
- Dawn surf check (with a cup of coffee in your hand!)
- Getting the newspaper on the dewy lawn
- Walking the kids to the bus stop
- Going back to the car in the middle of the night to make sure it is locked
- Casual Work Fridays
- Mowing the lawn (These suckers are water-resistant!)
- Bicycle rides on the cruiser
- Garage selling
- Watching youth soccer games
- Laying low by the fireplace…
