I’ve been vaguely aware of FitFlop for a while now and if I’m honest, I always associated it with a brand that put practicality over style. Which for many years, wasn’t something I was willing to admit (publicly) was of any great importance to me. After all, who needs to actually be able to feel their toes …. Well, it would seem…I DO!
I think we can all agree that day to day life as a parent is hard enough without having to deal with both your screaming 2-year-old and tortured soles! So, when a friend turned up at my house for a catch up and I immediately clocked her glorious new slingbacks from a great (social) distance, I was shocked to learn they were from FitFlop. My first foray onto the site was one of those classic ‘how have I been on here an hour already’ experiences. The full range had so much offer in terms of variety and style. With a social event on the horizon, I finally decided the strappy red espadrilles were up to the task of making this a noteworthy comeback.

Two short sleeps later (and an emergency DIY pedicure) – they arrive. Giddy with excitement, I opened them up immediately and stomped around the house to ensure the fit was right and to test out comfort levels. I wish I could do justice to how comfortable and light-weight they actually are and how happy they make me…although I am sure the photo below gives some indication!
In my dutiful attempt to get a better understanding of the biomechanics behind the shoes before I wrote this, I read over the information about how they optimise pressure diffusion, body alignment and improve muscle activity. However, this lasted 5 minutes until I ended up back on the main site and considering my next purchase…. What do you all think – studded sliders, tortoise shell flipflops or leather ballet pumps?
