I'm a fan of all things twee: kitten whiskers, Beatrix Potter creatures, ladybugs and now, flowery wedge sandals. You might find these comfortable sandals too cutesy, but I love 'em. The t-strap gives the J-41 Monaco a classic look, yet the floral wedge heel adds a touch of whimsy and fun. And Jeepers! J-41 is owned by Chrysler LLC, in case you didn't know.
The J-41 Monaco features a memory foam footbed for cushion and a stable 2 1/2" wedge heel. The outsole is made of partially recycled rubber. I've found J-41 to be inconsistent in sizing, but according to comments at Zappos, customers generally state that the Monaco runs true to size. Another popular style is the Journey Sporty Wedge which I reviewed earlier this year.
Available at Zappos for $119; Piperlime $89.99; Athleta $94.99, OnlineShoes $119.95
Who has a pair of J-41s? Which style? How do they fit?
I couldn't pass this up and just HAD to share with you:
I bought my 7 year old son a pair of flip-flops at Kohl's today. You would have thought I had given him a $100 lego set the way he carried on about his new shoes. He asked if he could be on my blog, so I put him to work at the computer this afternoon. Here's his review (I didn't have the heart to use spell check--perfect the way it is):
