About Grandco Sandals

Grandco, known officially as Grand Overseas, Inc., is a wholesale footwear distributor that specializes in women's shoes. The company's Web site features an updated catalog of styles. In order to market its products to the appropriate audience, the company often appears as an exhibitor at specialty tradeshows that offer women's products in particular.

The Shoes

If you love playful, casual shoes with feminine designs, chances are you'll find something that tickles your fancy in the Grandco sandals lineup. The entire collection is available under the "Catalog" tab on the Web site, and it's practically a given that there'll be something to appeal to any woman in seven pages worth of shoes!

You may already own shoes very similar to what you see in the catalog. The wholesale selections are typical of what might be found at online boutiques or even in shoe stores or mass retailers like Target, but there are also many styles that stand out from the pack. They include:

• Style 24768E: Found on page one of the catalog, these simple slides go the extra mile and add a little bling to the mix. The thong strap is bejeweled with a medley of orange, aquamarine, green, pink and yellow stones on your choice of a white, brown or black shoe. A gold foot bed completes the look. Perfect to wear throughout summer, these are a dressier alternative to the basic flip-flop.

• Style 31285: If basic flip-flops are really more your thing, though, don't think twice about snagging a pair (or two or three!) of these comfy shoes. They feature discreet silver rhinestones on the straps and a floral adornment on the foot bed. The shoes are available in black, brown and a perfectly beach-worthy red.

• Style 45006: Anyone who really appreciates color and vibrancy will adore these playful flip-flops. The straps are adorned with the Grandco name and a handful of discreet rhinestones, while the foot beds feature bold, swirly artwork with a hint of paisley. The shoes are available in lime green, mustard yellow and hot pink.

• Style 28397: The perfect slides to see you from spring into summer and even a bit beyond if the weather cooperates, these comfortable wood slides boast a thick, floral-embroidered strap in your choice of black or camel. The heel is slightly higher here, which makes it perfect for shorter women who don't normally wear flip-flops or anyone seeking something slightly dressier. They're ideal to pair with long, summery dresses or broomstick skirts.

• Style 24491-MN: Let's hear it for the boys! Grandco may be primarily all about women's footwear, but the guys get a nod in the casual footwear department, too. These comfortable slides bear a look similar to Birkenstocks and are available in dark brown and light brown.

• Style 61689-CH + IN: Of course, there's something for the kids, too. No child will be able to resist the bold color selection of these comfortable clogs. They're available in everything from forest green, sunny yellow and pale lavender to sky blue, gray and baby pink. How's that for variety? They're so comfortable that the kids may want to wear them nonstop!

• Style 24893E: The company designs more than just flip-flops and similar styles. These slides are easy, comfortable and just slightly on the dressy side. Available in black, white and brown, they bear a variety of rhinestones on the straps in colors that coordinate perfectly with the shoe's hue. The brown is especially striking when paired with the golden and copper stones.

Where to Purchase

Since the shoes are not available to the general public, you will have to seek out companies that actually sell Grandco shoes to begin with. If that's not possible, pay a visit to eBay, where you'll find a rather generous selection of styles for men, women and children.
