  Fit Flops - Fit Flops saved my feet

Fit Flops saved my feet

I had begun running and apparently had not had the best shoes for that activity and ended up giving myself plantar fasciitis which was so painful. I had gone to a local specialty shoe store to purchase a particular pair of recommended shoes to help the condition. It was the middle of the hot hot summer and I was not about to wear gym shoes with inserts. The person there suggested I try fit flops instead since the originally suggested shoes only were available there in a lavendar color (not the most outfit friendly color). They had several styles and price points and I found one I loved, Anna Sui in a metallic bronze with cut out flowers. They were immediately comfortable and weirdly supportive for a flip-flop. I was surprised because had thought I wouldn't be able to wear flippys with my foot condition. The employee said while they do not have medical clearance to claim they help there are loads of reviews of people who say that the different levels of foam, height of the heel and arch support all assist the condition. I can say first hand that my feet no longer hurt throughout the day, I can walk over an hour and more in them and not be sorry the next day. They are fashionable and cute and go with lots of outfits. I am now looking to purchase a winter version from the company because I have been so pleased with the quality and results. Nothing had fallen apart or even looks like I have worn them almost every day this entire summer. I heart FitFlops! view more

  Fit Flops - Favorite shoes

Favorite shoes

This is my favorite brand of shoes. I pretty much live in Fit Flop sandals. I have a problem with knee pain and wearing them seems to help with that. I even bought a pair of Fit Flop boots that I wore all winter. The shoes are really durable, I've put them through a lot and only recently busted my one pair. view more

  Fit Flops - Love Them!

Love Them!

I bought my first pair 2years ago and just bought another pair. they are the most comfortable shoes i own. I haven't noticed a firm affect, but i know my feet are never tired. I wore these shoes on my 2 week trip to Greece, they were perfect for the cobblestone streets view more

  Fit Flops - Comfy - yes, toneing - no

Comfy - yes, toneing - no

I really loved these flip flops and wanted them to be everything they claimed they were... especially since they are $50. After a while the top part stretches out so they're too lose to wear and I never noticed any change in my legs / butt as far as toneing goes. Bummer. Cute though! view more

  Fit Flops - Pillows for my feet!

Pillows for my feet!

I have finally found the most comfortable shoe for my foot! I am in LOVE with Fit FFlops! I feel like I am walking on pillows and for me that is a rareity. I actually walked all over DisneyWorld for 4 days only in Fit Flops, and I was happy surprised to see that DisneyWorld sold Mickey ones!! Prior to these I wore Crocs for comfort however I didn't feel very trendy, especially because I have a size 10 foot! Fit Flops have great styles, some with sequins, rhinestones, studs, etc...there are styles for everyone. They are pricier than most flip flops but some I have had for 2-3 summers now and they are still in great condition. Plan on paying between $50-70 per pair, depending where you shop. I can guarentee you that they are worth every penny! view more

  Fit Flops - Like walking on a cloud

Like walking on a cloud

Fit flops are my favorite and most comfortable shoes!! When I first bought them they only had sandals. I wrote to the company and asked when they were going to make shoes for the winter and that's just what they did!!! I was soooo happy and so were my feet! view more

  Fit Flops - These actually work!

These actually work!

I am so happy that the warm weather is right around the corner-I can start wearing my Fit Flops again! These things actually do work-even my husband noticed a difference in my butt :) I do suggest that you take heed to the directions and not wear them for an extended period on your first time out. You will have some sore muscles to contend with. view more

  Fit Flops - Summer Madness

Summer Madness

I've owned my Fit Flops for two years. They are comfortable but nothing special and way overpriced. After all they are rubber shoes that had the benefit of a fantastic marketing strategy. Their whole concept of firming and toning, etc. is ludicrous. By their nature, any flip flop-type sandal needs to be held in place by gripping with the toes. Using these muscles repetitively may provide some exercise, but not enough to warrant visible signs of improvement. If anything, I would venture to say that if firming or toning occurs as a result, it would be due to the fact that one is just walking alot. It isn't about the footwear, it's about getting off one's duff and moving. You could purchase a good pair of sneakers and really get a workout if that is the goal. view more

  Fit Flops - Love the fit flops - for fit and comfort!

Love the fit flops - for fit and comfort...

Love my fit flops! Not sure that they really do much to make my legs more or less toned, but they are extremely comfortable and easy to wear for long periods of time. Many doctors / specialists frown upon thongs / flipflops, and I have to agree with them - especially the flat ones - whether an elegant leather one or a haviana-style shoe. I think they should look at Fit Flops as they seem to offer the support and the comfort of a running shoe, while offering the style options and ease of a thong or flipflop. Would love to see more options (maybe more of a sandal style) in coming seasons! view more

  Fit Flops - No results but I still love them

No results but I still love them

I'm sorry to say that I haven't noticed any firming or toning to my legs or butt from wearing my fitflops.I'm still giving them a 5 star rating however because they are so comfortable and they sure areen't doing any harm! Maybe I just need to wear them longer each day? view more

  Fit Flops - Fit Flops Rock!

Fit Flops Rock!

Fit Flops are amazing. You have to get used to them to really feel the effects but don't give up on them right away. Wear them a couple of hours a day at first and build up to all day. You will see results. I wold love to try some of the other fit shoes they make. view more

  Fit Flops - Fabulous Fit Flops!

Fabulous Fit Flops!

I have four pairs of Fit Flops and one pair of the clog Fit Flop. I wear them everyday until the weather gets to cold then I switch to the clog Fit Flop. If you have any leg or back problems these are the shoes for you. I have sciatica and these are the only shoe that lessens the pain when I walk. You have to try them you won't be disappointed. view more

  Fit Flops - Fit Flops are So Comfy

Fit Flops are So Comfy

I was skeptical about buying Fit Flops but decided to give them a try. I bought a pair while in Disney World and wore them all over the parks. I put them on in the morning and didn't take them off till about 10pm at night. Wow they are so very comfortable! I'm not sure if they are helping my legs but you sure can walk all over the place with no pain. view more

  Fit Flops - if it seems too good to be true....

if it seems too good to be true....

I do own a pair, and like an earlier reviewer, I have heel pain from Plantar Fasciitis. The Fit-Flops are very comfortable and look nice enough to wear around. I didn't feel like I was working out, and my legs didn't miraculously become perfect though. view more

  Fit Flops - I love my Fit Flops!

I love my Fit Flops!

I love my Fit Flops! I have several pairs and I wear them all of the time. I didn't buy mine to shape my legs, but I bought them due to having plantar fascitis which causes a lot of heel pain. They help a lot! view more

  Fit Flops - never tried

never tried

I feel odd choosing a star rating as I have never tried or even heard of these! I generally never wear flip flops they are not good for your feet, or back. I have a very high arch and generally can't wear flat shoes- I am very curious now- I fear the season is over, but would love to try these on. view more

  Fit Flops - Comfortable flip flops

Comfortable flip flops

I can't say that Fit Flops really help to tone my legs and get me in shape however they are very comfortable. I enjoy wearing flip flops all summer and I also enjoy walking. Normal flip flops cause my back to hurt if I wear them while walking but the fit flops are great. view more

  Fit Flops - Fit but flops

Fit but flops

Eh- I wasn't so thrilled with my Fit Flops. They felt comfortable for a little while, but after about 30 minutes, the straps just rubbed me the wrong way. They did feel like they were slightly working out my legs, but I'd rather just work out. view more

  Fit Flops - flip flops

flip flops

I haven't tried the Fit Flops but I just don;t think that it can really do what there says it can.. I just think that you would get the same benifits from just walking in any type of footwear you would have on. So I'm I bit confused view more

  Fit Flops - a comfortable cute option for your tired feet!

a comfortable cute option for your tired...

This is a new product for me. I tried them when I saw some of the reviews online. I find them comfortable, but still "dressy" enough to get away with wearing with most things. They may be a bit overpriced-but they certainly are versitile view more

  Fit Flops - Very Comfortable!

Very Comfortable!

Fit Flops are very comfortable, attractive, and sporty-looking flip flops that are really pretty good and supportive for your feet in my opinion as far as flip flops goes. I think they are superior to Havianas which I also own. view more

  Fit Flops - flip flops

flip flops

i love wearing flip flops and if i could i would wear them all year round!! They are so great and much more comfortable than shoes. Havianas are defenitely the best ones ever made and i highly recommend them to anyone view more

  Fit Flops - Curious

Curious

I've thought about getting something like this. The sketchers ones are kinda bulky and not as attractive, but these actually look like sandals. I'm curious if they actually work. Guess I'll have to check them out. view more

  Fit Flops - I have my Doubts

I have my Doubts

I am skeptical, do those really work?? Or is this just another marketing ploy to help make america lazier and spend more money? I honestly don't get how these flip flops, no matter how cute they are, can help reduce or prevent cellulite. view more

  Fit Flops - I love them!!!  I live it them!!

I love them!!! I live it them!!

I got a pair of Fit Flops at the beginning of summer and am sooo sad it is getting too cold to wear them!! I LOVE THEM!! I never take them off, if I can help it! One day I wore other shoes out all day and to the grocery store! My feet hurt, the bottom of my feet felt bruised! When I got home I put on my Fit Flops and my feet felt great! NO MORE PAIN! These are the MOST comfortable shoes I EVER owned! I'll have to get the Closed Toe FitFlops and the BOOTS! They are THAT comfortable! view more

I haven't tried these, but am definitely interested in trying them. I practically live in my slippers, and the thought of working my muscles a little more while I walk around in these is a great thought! view more

  Fit Flops - FitFlops

FitFlops

I first heard about this idea at last year and it seemed new and interesting. Although I personally haven't tried them they seem like a great idea and maybe the same boost running in the sand would do for you.? view more

  Fit Flops - Cool Idea

Cool Idea

The idea is pretty cool and I really wonder how well they work. I would love a pair to test out and see if I can tell a difference. I can't wear tennis shoes or flip flops at work, so they need to come out with a pair that is work appropriate (or at least look better for work). view more

  Fit Flops - Skeptical

Skeptical

I wasn't overly impressed by these. They look kind of funny on my big feet, and one slips while the other stays tightly on my foot. I've never had this problem with other shoes, so I don't really think it's my foot. I did notice they make you shift your balance to a different part of the foot while walking, so maybe they do actually work. But, I can't say as though I'll be wearing them enough to find out. view more

  Fit Flops - Do these really work?

Do these really work?

Haven't tried them, but interested in seeing they'd work. I imagine it's much like the Shape-ups and such we see for tennis shoes, right? Being a flip flop fan, I think I'd likely try these out, as long as the price isn't crazy expensive. view more

  Fit Flops - Skeptical

Skeptical

I am still skeptical about these. I do love how these fit flops feel on my feet but I have no proof after wearing over a year that they work right to promote exercise. I have asked several people as well and I get the same response. view more

  Fit Flops - fit flops

fit flops

I have seen this in the regular stores and discount places like Ross, TJ Maxx and Marshall's. They are very expensive and they didnt feel too comfortable when I tried them on to walk in them. Im sure they dont do much for your legs, calfs and butt that any excercising wouldnt do. view more

  Fit Flops - don't like them

don't like them

I bought these about two years ago, just to try them. The price was high (around 50$). I got black ones. They are comfortable, but the top part was hurting my feet. I did not see the difference on my legs. view more

  Fit Flops - some people like them

some people like them

My boyfriends mom really loves these because they are comfortable and she has back problems and they help her with that and also my boyfriends grandma also wears them because sometimes her ankles swell up so I guess they are good for those reasons as well view more

  Fit Flops - Fit Flops are a FLOP

Fit Flops are a FLOP

I'd never fall for the advertising claims that just by wearing these flip flops you'll reduce cellulite and such. I was always sceptical but after reading what consumer reports has to say about foot wear that claims to help shape buns, thighs, calves, etc. I now believe it's all hype to get you to fork over way too much money for a plain ol' pair of flip flops. view more

  Fit Flops - Fit Flops

Fit Flops

I have always been skeptical about any shoe who promises to work out my legs with each step I take. I know how hard you have to work in order to get in shape let alone tone, I have no intension on purchasing these sandals in the future to only be disappointed. view more

  Fit Flops - So comfy!

So comfy!

When I first saw these come out I was in no rush to get them. They're not the prettiest flip flops that's for sure. Except for the ones I found that have sequins on them. They've really helped me with the pain I was getting due to my high arches. I've found out I no longer can wear flat slippers. Sure these are pretty pricey, but it's super comfy and I can wear them for longer periods of time. view more

  Fit Flops - What an ugly shoe.

What an ugly shoe.

I had never heard of a Fit Flop so I looked it up online. These are some of the ugliest shoes ever. The first thing that came to mind when I saw the FitFlop Snugger boot was "Storm Trooper". These shoes are just hideous. And the site I was looking at "shoes that won't break the bank". I looked them up on Amazon. That is way more than I would pay ever pay for an ugly flip flop. You wanna get in shape....save your money and go to a gym. view more

Fit flops

I did not like these at all. I actually hated them they hurt my feet and I always felt like I was slipping foward in them. They were uncomfortable to walk in and my feet got super sweaty on the bottoms of them. view more

  Fit Flops - Super comfortable

Super comfortable

These shoes are great for walking in warm weather, if you don't want to wear snickers but fit flops are just not comfortable or ergonomic enough. The only drawback is the lighter colors tend to stain easily and are not easily cleaned. view more

  Fit Flops - Flip flops rock!

Flip flops rock!

I have bought so many pairs of flip flops its not even funny. I have different colors for whatever I decide to wear each day, and make sure that I find cheap but comfortable ones. Its nice to be able to get out, and just have something to toss on your feet whenever you want to go some where or to stay cool. Everyone should own atleast one pair. view more

  Fit Flops - Embarrassing looking

Embarrassing looking

Fit flops work- they really give you a leg workout. But the problem is, they aren't good looking! It's hard because I would wear them every time I left the house, but they don't go with my outfits. They're just bulky, which I know is somewhat necessary for the purpose they serve, but I just can't get used to it. view more
