Feel-Good Feet: A Flip-Flop Buying Guide 

Summer is just around the corner, and you know what that means—flip-flop season is here! While flip-flops are a summer staple, choosing the right ones can be tricky. Many people write them off as a bad decision, but they don’t have to be. Here are 4 simple steps to make sure your flip-flops make your summer more fun—and not leave you with sore feet at the end of the day! 

#1: Arch Support 

Flat flip-flops = tired feet.  

Look for contoured footbeds that offer real support in your arch and with a cupped heel. 

 #2: Comfortable Straps 

Choose soft materials and avoid hard plastics to prevent blisters. 
No one wants to spend the day with straps digging into their skin. Also, skip flip-flops with loose straps. If you have to grip your toes to keep them on, they’re just not the right fit. 

Pro Tip: If strap discomfort is an issue, slide-ons might be your new best friend! 

#3: Water-Friendly Materials 

Quick-drying, water-resistant styles make it easy to enjoy your favorite summer activities.
Whether you’re by the pool or at the beach, water-friendly flip-flops are a must. Be sure to check the bottom for a good grip too!

Look for grooves or patterns: A well-designed sole will have a textured pattern to prevent you from slipping. 

#4: Quality Design 

Look for flip-flops with a thicker sole and a one-piece design.
No one likes a broken flip-flop. Opt for a pair that’s durable and will survive your summer fun!
