Someone on another thread made a comment that had me wondering if natives are out.

Any opinions? (Reg litvish)

They’re fine. They’re just natives.

I don’t care if they are, my kids love wearing them and they’re so convenient. Definitely still buying them!

Thanks. Lol I know but "just natives" costs hard earned money for me. Classic me would realize in the summer that I'm way off and feel a little pang (it would probably be tiny but still...).

Yes! My kids live in them all summer. Hope they never leave! (Though I'm sure everyone said that about crocs Smile

Natives are here to stay. They're comfy and cute and strong.
The other trends will come and go.

Who cares? I’m still getting them. Last year I wanted to go with the trend so I bought floafers they tore right away and bent out of shape. Natives are supportive and strong

Ok. So I hear you then. I think you should be fine. Floaters are the more “in” thing, but if you’re only getting one, I still think you’re better off with natives.

I'm very satisfied with the imitations. We did well with the Amazing Savings ones but I've heard from others that there are other fakes out there, some on Amazon maybe? May G-d bless and keep Amazing Savings is all I can say...

And I'm also on the "keep what works" team. Fashion be darned, they stay on so much better than crocs/flipflops and can handle just about anything.

They certainly won’t be out. For sure not in little kids.

Natives are classic and definitely still in. They're great quality and never tear. I got floafers last year, the quality is beyond awful. They tore within weeks and it got horribly out of shape. It doesn’t withstand playing outside.

Just a note on Natives-the sole of the off brand Natives is not actually white rubber, it's white paint that will wear off very quickly and make it obvious that the Natives are fake. This is fine for little kids, if your older ones will be self conscious that their "Natives" are peeling it's something to keep in mind.

I love how when it comes to Natives, people refuse to be swayed by what the fashions gods say should or shouldn't be "in." Smile

My DD will still be wearing her natives.

I did not see any of the floafers around last year. The only place I saw them mentioned was imamother. Must not have been a big deal in Lakewood.

Yes I don't think they will go out so fast. They are very practical and durable.
I had these for my kids last year, and they held up nicely:
