I purchased a pretty pair of Clark's sandals a couple or maybe three years ago and forgot about them so they sat in my closet un-worn during that time. I wore them to go to town to a time restricted appointment and feeling something was not right, looked down at the sandals and discovered they were actually disintegrating and barely holding together. I then had to find somewhere nearby to buy flipflops or something so I could be at my event on time. Found them at a Walgreens store. Awful experience!
