crocs have been great.


Does anyone not like Fit flops and if not, why? Another $ item, just wanted feedback. cute styles but it 's a flip flop version.

There was a class action against fit flops. Apparently they don't do anything.

They might not do anything for weight loss but are extremely comfortable to walk in. I use them to walk around the parks all day.

I agree they are very comfortable for my feet. They also last, I've had some for over 5 years and they're still going strong! I wear them all of the time since I live in Arizona.

BTW: I'm going to buy a new pair this year, I've seen some newer styles with a back strap on them to make them more like sandals. They're really cute and it would probably be nice to have the back strap on them for Disney.

I have several pair. They are extremely comfortable. I wear them for timing at swim meets and walking around Busch Gardens. Wish they weren't so ugly.

Luv my fit flops! I can walk all day in them without any problems. I have some really cute ones, at least I think so

I love my fit flops, and my podiatrist approves. I noticed they have changed their fit a bit and now they are slimmer and not as clownish looking. I have about 6 pairs of fitflops and 1 pair of sneakers and 1 pair of short booties.

I do not have any foot problems (so not sure how FFs help with that) but I love my FFs. I have worn them for full days in the parks - both at WDW and Disneyland - and the only problem is that I have the ones that have sequins on the straps and sometimes, when walking, my ankle gets scratched. A band aid fixes that and they are so comfortable that I do not mind the band aids

I had a pair of the Mickey ones that I loved and wore them for about 5 years before they had no cushioning left in them. I'd like to get a new pair this spring. So where is the best place to buy them now at a good price?

I like mine for short walks, but for anything long they kill my knees. Rocker-bottom/wobbleboard shoes are notoriously bad for your knees.

I love my Fit Flops! I have the ones with sequins. They're chunky but cute enough and I always wear them to Disneyland - we are usually there at least 10 hrs. I didn't really get them for the fitness pitch - my mom and I always wore $2 flipflops to DL until Mom realized she was getting pain in her feet after DL trips, so figured: why not try a $50 flip flop instead?! She hasn't had any pain since the upgrade.

My sister loves her orthoheals. Great for PF.

 

[MinnieVanMom]

I have a pair and I can't say they do much for keeping me fit at all. Walking a lot does that but they are super comfortable and cushy.

I would not wear them to WDW or the beach but they are fun for just around the house or a short walks.

I LOVE my Fit flops! I've worn no other sandals during the past three summers I have two pair I alternate between. I bought the sketchers version and they are not as comfortable. I've gotten both of mine on sale, one on zappios.com and one on eBay. They are the most comfortable sandals. I get no hot spots and they don't rub anywhere . I highly recommend them!

I have PF and heel spurs and my FF are the only shoes I can wear for long periods of time/distance without pain. I have 3 pairs of flipflop style and one pair of the clogs for the colder weather. The women who work at my kids' school worship these shoes as much as I do and we all watch sales for one another. I have only purchased them locally (last year's model=very reasonable price).

I never in a million years thought they would do anything for my 'shape', but wearing them means I can always walk as far as I need to and that makes me pretty happy! I have worn them the last 3 Disney trips and never regretted a moment.

Thanks Hill and all. I just ordered a pair! I'd get the clogs but I don't see them on line. Di you get your clogs on line or ?
