I resisted ever buying birkenstocks until a few years ago - because I never liked the look of them. But damn, now I get why everyone loves them - I can't deny that these are the most comfortable, all-day best sandals ever. I wear them every day unless I need a different type of look or I am walking barefoot.
I live in California where it's sunny constantly and sunglasses are essential every day, and often critical. KAENON makes the best sunglasses - I won't buy any other brand. They are so LIGHTWEIGHT and wont hurt the bridge of your nose, I can wear them all day. They are polarized and have great designs. I have even bought pairs of their large men's glasses and they look awesome too. Worth every penny.
I am a swimmer and a beach/pool lover and I have tried a million bikinis over my lifetime. I currently own about 15 bikinis. Hands down O'NEILL makes the most flattering bikinis - I love their bottom. They also have super cute clothing and I own a bunch. Pro tip: I never put your suits in one of those swimsuit-water-extractor machines...they will ruin your swimsuits, just wring out the water and hang dry.
I have been hiking for 20 years and a few times I have veered away from my favorite hiking shoe to try out another new brand, and it's always a regret. Hands down, THE NORTH FACE makes the best hiking shoes (trail runners). I don't run on trails, but trail runner shoes feel like a gym shoe plus amazing grippy tread on the bottom. The North Face has the best tread. I hike a lot of dry, slippery ground here in California, I never slip with these trail runners. THE BEST! Any North Face trail runner shoe will be amazing! They also last long! I hiked 750 miles during the pandemic in these!
