Experience

  • Product development at SnappSandals
    2009 - Present · 17 yrs 7 mos

    We have been working on and have developed a new type of sandal. Snapp Sandals which allows you to change the top to create what ever look you desire. The patented snap system is designed so what ever top you use it will look like a completely new sandal. We developed this new sandal with 2 things in mind, comfort and affordability. One of the beauties of this type of sandal is the decrease in raw materials which is good for our environment.
