CLOSED: My Sandals' Got Pizzazz! (+ A Sanuk Giveaway)

* Click here to view the name(s) of the winner(s)*

Talk about being innovative!....In 1997, Jeff Kelley decided to develop a line of footwear out of inner tubes and inner outdoor carpet.
That's right flip flops, beach sandals and surf sandals for guys, gals and the kiddos.... Sanuk !


The Buzz:

The Thai word "Sanuk" means fun and that's what the line of footwear radiates....

FUNk


and

FUNctionality!


Creatively inspired yet thoughtfully designed products for the global outdoor community, that's Sanuk for you.


E.B. Mommy's Report:

Browsing through the site, I was drawn towards the "bling" cum "casual" look the Ibiza Monaco radiated but I was still a little unsure about the physical product, even as I ordered the same.

Thankfully my doubts were replaced with a smile when my embellished women's sandals arrived.



Now I'm not the sort of person who will wear my flip flops even for a midnight run through Wally World for some last minute groceries. No Siree. My feet need to be dressed up and flip flops to me are what I'd slip on to walk around the front yard or the back of my home, despite the fact that they're oh so comfy.

Now my Ibiza Monaco "sandals" are what I'd like to call "dressed up flip flops". They pass my "dress up " standard for footwear, so I can wear them outside and have my feet enjoy the "flip flop" comfort feel with the squishy soft rubber footbed.



This lightweight piece when paired with my " drop and pick Bunny girl from school" attire, looks great and yes, they've already been given several "Mommy Likes" looks of approval!



My sandals' got pizzazz!....Does yours?

CLOSED: Wheeled Footwear Fun with Heelys New HX2! (A 120$ Mommy & Me Giveaway)

.

* Click here to view the name(s) of the winner(s)*

Looking for a unique Mommy-Kiddo activity to do in the new year?
Why don't you consider a little wheeled footwear fun with Heelys new HX2 ?!


Check out the fun you and the kids can have....



Coolio!

Heely's latest Hx2 line is testament of its innovative, patented, action, sports-oriented brand.
Unlike earlier products, the Hx2, uses two smaller, removable wheels in each shoe.


Not only is it easier to maintain balance, but wearers of the Hx2 do not require as much leg strength to lift their toes to skate.
As beginners get the hang of skating, the Hx2 can be converted into a regular pair of Heelys for a more challenging ride simply by removing one of the wheels.
It’s like training wheels for your feet!


Oh and when you tire of the wheels, don't fret about wasting a perfectly good pair of skate shoes.
You can just pop out the wheels and Voila!...
You get a snazzy pair of 'walk around' shoes!


Now tell me, who's ready to SKATE....RATTLE.....'N'.... ROLL??!!


For more Heelys Fun....

Heelys Street Skater tests your skills in an exciting and fast-paced virtual environment.

Perform tricks, coast through checkpoints and skillfully maneuver through the streets to avoid some gnarly obstacles!

Think you have what it takes to be on the Top 10 Leader Board?
Head over to http://www.agame.com/game/street-skater.html and give it your best shot!


Buy it:

You can buy a Heelys Hx2 Stingray, Sparkler or Jazzy pair of shoes for 60 US$ a pair.


Win it:

One reader will have the opportunity to win a Heelys Hx2 Jazzy pair of shoes (available upto a size 9) for Mommy AND a pair of Stingray OR Sparkler shoes for the little partner in skates!

(This gift pack has a 120 US$ value)
