Fitflops for Women- And Men Too!
I have called this post “Fitflops for Women” as it is in fact mainly women who tend to wear them but Fitflop also do a smaller range of shoes for men too, and I would not like to exclude men from the joy of wearing Fitflops!
And it is a joy, no doubt about that!
I first discovered Fitflops many years ago, and it was love at first wear!!!
Now, I wear Fitflops all and every day, in summer and winter. I have Fitflops that will see me through all occasions, except the most formal ones, and I value the style and comfort that they give me.
For those of you who have never come across Fitflops before, well, I hope I can show you just how different and amazing they are!
You may ask what is so amazing about Flipflops? And why would they have a place on a website about Natural Remedies?
This will all become clear as you read on!
More than likely you have some flipflops in your wardrobe – the floppy plastic kind that you wear for the beach or pool. If so, you are probably wondering why I am raving about another kind of flipflop.
Well, I’m Not!
The only resemblance between those floppy kinds of footwear and Fitflops is that some of the styles are open sandals with a toe thong, but by no means all of the styles have that.
The very first time that you put on a pair of Fitflops, you will just know how different they are!
OK, How Are They Different?
First of all, they are incredibly comfortable!
You could walk for miles on them, and you would still feel comfortable!
Unlike plastic flipflops, you never feel that your foot is going to slide off the edge – in fact your foot feels really supported, due to the way that the shoe and the sole are made.
Take a look at a Fitflop label:
Here is what Fitflop have to say about their shoes. All Fitflops have:
- our standard Microwobbleboard™ midsole
- APMA* Seal of Acceptance, for footwear found to promote good foot health
- biomechanically engineered, comfortable flip flop
- seamless built-in arch contourslip-resistant rubber outsole
Does that sound like the flipflops you can buy at the beach? Of course not!
And There Are So Very Many Styles To Choose From!
Why I Love My Fitflops
Apart from the amazing styles and comfort, Fitflops really did give me back my life!
Some years ago, I had a series of operations on the tendons in my ankle. I don’t intend to go into details, but after the plaster was finally removed, I was left with a very weak ankle which made walking difficult and uncomfortable, and almost impossible with bare feet!
My heal was so sore and tender that I could not bear to wear any kind of shoe.
Luckily for me, I had my Fitflop toe-post sandals! (The ones in the image here are my brand new ones all ready to wear this summer!)
The Fitflops did their magic!
One of the great things about the fantastic micro-wobble sole which every pair of Fitflops have, the wearing of them will help to strengthen your calf muscles, and after about six months in plaster, mine were very weak.
But after an incredibly short time, my calf muscles were much stronger and so was my ankle, and I was able to walk a fair distance comfortably. In fact, when I went for my next check-up with my hospital Consultant, he was amazed at my progress!! He said that he would recommend Fitflops to all his orthopaedic patients!
In fact, Fitflop do claim that by wearing their shoes you are giving your lower body a work-out!
Fitflops also, incredibly for a shoe, do in fact help to alleviate back pain! As I have already stated, they are so much more than just a shoe!
Ever since then, I have been a devoted Fitflop user! Even now, I still find it uncomfortable to walk barefoot or to wear “normal” shoes. Lucky for me then, that there are so very many different styles to choose from!
Fitflops For Women
At the moment, there are 383 different styles of Fitflops for Women! The size range is from size3-9, so they are suitable for older children too.
Sandals
There are 118 different styles of toe-post sandals. ranging from those you could wear for everyday to glamorous ones which would beautifully take you through lovely summer evenings.
There is also a range of toe-post Fitflops specifically designed for beach wear. They are waterproof, with the same great comfortable soles and support as all Fitflops, making “normal” rubber flipflops completely redundant!
In the image opposite you can see my beach Fitflops with the same superb soles that all Fitflops have
Then there is a range of 65 slip-on sandals, again with some which are more for everyday wear, but there are also some more glamorous designs.

I enjoy reading your post about Fitflops. It got lots of information which are really helpful, as i don’t know this brand very much. The price for fitlops also reasonable.
For me, the most important criteria to choose footwear must be comfortable and healthy, not just stylish.
Is Fitfops available for children as well?
Hi Odette
I m really happy that you enjoyed reading about Fitflops, and I hope that you will give them a try.
Sadly,they do not make a children’s range, although the Women’s range starts at U.S. size 5, or U.K. size 3. I bought them for my children as soon as they reached those sizes, and they loved them as much as I do!
Very many thanks for your comment.

These sound like a dream to wear. I think your enthusiasm has sold me on at least trying these. My feet do ache an awful lot. I like the idea that they are giving my legs a work out too.
I’m actually going to get my other half to see if there are any suitable for him to wear at work. He’s on his feet all day and his legs and feet ache all the time.
They are not as expensive as I imagined them to be either
Hi Karen
That’s really great to hear!
I’m sure you will not be disappointed, do let me know how it goes 🙂
Very many thanks for your comment
