teachermom2834 Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 I live in the south so flip flops are appropriate six months of the year and my uniform is jeans/t shirt/ flip flops most days. I had a pair of Keen flip flops that lasted years and were very comfortable but they disappeared. I’ve been trying to get by with cheaper flip flops and it’s just not the same. I miss my flip flops. I don’t see the same ones I had before online. I’m open to another brand so I figured I’d ask for suggestions. Old Navy or Target flip flops just won’t do. Suggestions? My feet aren’t particularly picky I just need a little support and for them to stay put on my feet. And I can pay a bit for them because I keep shoes for many many years. I probably had the last pair ten years. Quote
barnwife Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 I have a pair of Clarks flip flops with the cloudstepper foot beds. Or at least I think that's what it's called. It looks like mine are the Sea Breeze style (or at least, those are most similar to mine). FWIW, I tried a pair of Merrell before the Clarks. The Merrell were so uncomfortable. The toe post thing was incredibly scratchy and the soles were so stiff/hard that it felt like walking on cement. Of course, I don't know if all Merrell flip flop are like that, but GL finding a pair that work for you! 1 Quote
prairiewindmomma Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 Vionics. They have good arch support and a deep heel cup. They are worth every penny. In fact, I am wearing a pair of Vionic Tide II right now. 1 1 Quote
klmama Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 Yes, Vionic Tide II flip flops have great support. The other Vionic styles are better than most flip flops, but they don't have the same great support as the Tide. 1 1 Quote
plansrme Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 Oofos. Wearing them around the house--basically any time I was not running or at the office wearing real shoes--cured my serious plantar fasciitis. I buy a new pair every year because they do lose their springiness after a while, but they are worth every penny. 1 Quote
Forget-Me-Not Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 Another plug for Vionic Tides. I’m on my third pair. They usually last me at least a couple of years. 1 Quote
math teacher Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 I love Fit Flops-I wear them year round. 1 Quote
BookMamaLade Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 Chacos are good, and they last for years. 1 Quote
matrips Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 I could wear Vionics flip flops all day at Disney. 1 Quote
Carol in Cal. Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 Fit Flops are my fave. They have some arch support AND are very cushy. Plus the toe piece does not hurt. They have gotten nutsy expensive. I got mine before that happened, but sometimes find them at the Nordstrom Rack for reasonable prices. I had a crazy cushy pair from another brand where the toe pieces actually cut my feet. I couldn't even wear them with socks. I was so bummed. 1 Quote
LifeLovePassion Posted April 27, 2021 Posted April 27, 2021 I love my Chaco's. They are very supportive. 1 Quote
Katy Posted April 27, 2021 Posted April 27, 2021 Chacos are supportive, but I’ve now had two pairs I donated to Goodwill. The straps rub my feet wrong. Blisters under my arch. I don’t know if they have flip flops, but I was just telling DH I might order more Okabashi leather sandals in different colors. They were my favorite last year. 1 Quote
