Item Description
In 1972, Jay “Sparky” Longley experimented making sandals in his Laguna Beach garage. With $200, Sparky bought a sewing machine and some rubber and started his quest to make the world’s best sandal. Sparky first started selling sandals to Dick Metz of Hobie where he would make 6 pairs and put them on consignment— when they sold, Sparky made enough money to make 12 pairs. While this Hobie consignment operation went on, Sparky also tried selling sandals in the parking lot of the Sawdust Festival. Possibly because he angered Sawdust operators and other paying Sawdust vendors, it was "suggested" that Sparky move down to San Clemente where he officially started Rainbow® Sandals, Inc. in 1974.
