I'll be honest—as a complete introvert, any time a stranger comes up to me on the street, it makes me a little nervous. (What do they want? Should I have put my headphones on before I got out of the car?) So imagine my happiness when a woman who approached me on my way to Pilates offered up a simple, "I love those clogs! Where did you get them?!" Um, yeah. *Huge* sigh of relief. We kept talking for another block or so about how she had been searching for a comfortable pair that weren't the same ones everyone else seems to have, and I was happy to share with her that they were actually made by one of my (and Jennifer Garner's) favorite shoe brands, SeaVees—a California company based in Santa Barbara.

The clogs in question are the Tiburon Trekkers, which come in three colors (fossil, black and maple) and are probably one of my most-worn shoes thanks to their incredibly comfy feel. They, of course, have an easy slip-on design and the upper material is flexible enough that they didn't need any breaking in, but sturdy enough that they never slip off.

As for their construction, the Tiburon Trekker clogs are made from waterproof buffed leather, waterproof tumbled leather or water-resistant suede, depending on the color you choose, and a molded recycled rubber insole that's leather-lined. They also have a textured Vibram XS Trek outsole that provides plenty of traction and an anatomical footbed to keep your arches supported—which I especially appreciate when I slip them on after a workout.

When it comes to fit, the clogs are only available in whole sizes, so the brand recommends sizing down if you're in-between. I'm usually an 8.5 in shoes but I went with a size 8 and they fit perfectly—no scrunched toes or hanging heels.

Honestly, I get so much wear out of the Tiburon Trekkers that I'm seriously considering picking up a second pair (especially if they're going to keep earning me compliments from strangers!), and I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a comfortable, versatile shoe they'll want to wear daily. If that sounds like you, go ahead and snag a pair now—you won't regret it.
