I love these Fitflops. They are so comfortable I wear them everyday all day long. I had no problem with the thong part between the toes like other people. They are a little stiff for a few days the sandal it self but they do stretch out quickly. I'm looking forward to buying another pair. The shipping from Zappos can not be beat. I have always received my purchase the next day. Don't know how they do it, but it's great.

I had to stop walking (for exercise) when I developed plantar fasciitis. My chiropractor suggested that I get a pair of FitFlops, telling me to choose carefully, they are not all the same. I got a pair at a local shoe store and took them to him, so he could test me in them and voila, they were perfect. I've bought a second and third pair. They are great looking and have given me great relief from the pain of plantar fasciitis.

I\'ve not tried any others, after finding this one.

I brought these to wear to a 8 day trip to Disney. I have Lupus so I get a lot of joint pain in the knees. I was a little concerned when they said to build up wearing them so your legs get use to them. I didn't have that option since we spend 12 hours walking a day at Disney. It turned out fine. They were very comfortable. I felt no leg strain and they were a lot easier to walk in than regular flip flops. I would recommend them. They make the list of top flip flops for comfort if you google them.

This shoe is awesome. It does everything the company claims. It supports the arch and provides plenty of cushion on the foot. I will definitely purchase more.

I have been wearing FitFlops for years. I have a very low arch and my arches hurt if I walk around barefoot. I wear fitflops around the house. This the first pair that gave me a problem. For the first time I got a blister between my big toe and middle toe but only on one foot. I am assuming it has something to with stitching in that particular area on that slipper.

I bought my first pair of FitFlops, the Electra, 3 years ago, and have loved them from the start. My mom's cat chewed holes in the soles, so I decided it was time for a new pair. Although I like the new ones, they are sized differently from my older pair. The sole is smaller overall, and the upper is not quite high enough for my high arches. Also, because of the smaller sole, they don't fit as well under my arches, and don't give me as much support as I like. I still like them, and they are wearable, just not as heavenly as my old pair, which I still prefer for long walks, despite the cat damage. I think I may try the next larger size next time I order a pair of FitFlops

I LOVE FitFlop Walkstars III and have quite a few pairs! I needed another red pair and thought Hibiscus would be 'red' like it looks online, however, it isn't really 'red' like my old ones. I've decided to keep them anyway becaue they're really comfortable and they're the only shoes I wear. I'm a little disappointed with the color, tho.

I loved this shoe but I have to return it because on the top where the patent leather is it cut into the top of my foot. Shryell, thank you for all your help Zappos is lucky you have a customer service person as good has you. Thank you!

I do not often wear this style of shoe and I typically don't like shoes that have something between the toes. I bought these specifically to have something to wear when getting a pedicure or when I need to walk where there is water or wet ground. I have found them to be far more comfortable than I expected (almost no irritation between my toes). They offer far more support than I would ever expect from a flip-flop of any kind. I have even walked to dog once or twice while wearing them (~2.5 miles) and found them to be stable, comfortable, and easy to walk in. They are not my go-to shoes, but I do find I wear them far more than I expected to. I have never had another pair of flip-flops that I could say that about.

These needed about 4 days breaking in time, but now they are comfortable and I like the support. I wish they came in half sizes, because they are a little long, but I know that a whole size down would be too small. They go with many colors in this dark charcoal shade. Too bad they are bulky for packing. I have wide feet and do very well with fit-flops.

The patent leather is very cute but stiff...so these aren't nearly as comfortable as other FitFlops I own. I only wear these back and forth to yoga so no blisters, but I definitely wouldn't try walking in them all day! Hope it will eventually soften with use.

I ordered my usual size 9 after reading all the reviews. However, it was huge on my foot. I take a 9 in a Dansko so I felt like a 9 would fit. It was very large. I reordered an 8. We will see.

Other reviewers warned that this runs big. I have another pair of FitFlops that fit well in my regular size and with a wide foot I decided to stick to my regular size when I ordered this pair. But the reviewers were right and it definitely runs big. I'm still able to wear them and they are comfy but I do wish I had been able to try these in the next size down as a comparison. Perhaps because of my wide foot I would still have bought the size I have but it would be nice to compare first.

I love these shoes. They are great to walk in and are very comfortable. The only problem is that my feet tend to sweat in them. Other than that, I love them!

Love these flip flops. A little on the expensive side but worth it as you can tell they will last a long time. Very comfortable.

If you're looking for a flip flop that actually wears like a shoe rather than a flimsy piece of foam, this is the shoe for you. I can actually feel it working my quads and gluts. It took a day or so for my feet to adjust to this level of support, but I'm very happy with them now.

I fell in love with the first FitFlops I bought, the Oasis, but I'm only in like with the Walkstar III. It's taken me some time to get used to the feel, and there seems to be a difference between the left and right shoes. Still, I'm keeping them.

These are definitely padded and cushion your feet well. I felt the thong rubbed a bit as it is thick but I did not develop any blister. Only time will tell. Are they worth the price? Yes, if you wear them a lot, which I have not yet had the opportunity to do. They would be great for walking if you go somewhere on a trip that allows for this style.

Comfy but top strap fits slightly smaller than other fitflops, and the fabric has no give. Would be nice if it had some goring on one side to move as you walked.

Very comfortable. great padding for walking on city streets. Only downside is that the white surface starts to show dirt.

Love the bronze fit flops and almost as much as the black suede ones. Only fault is the very stiff part between the toes.

Even though I love Zappos, I don't love my FitFlops. I've been wearing them for a few weeks hoping to break them in but they still hurt in between my toes and a little on the top. I do have wide feet so maybe that is my problem. I usually wear LL Bean flip flops. These have a lot more support. I'm still hoping they will stretch a little and I will wear them all summer anyway. For the price, I was hoping to love them.

This is a very comfortable flip flop, but the silver material looks like cheap plastic and is overly shiny, so I am returning them. I ordered down, as I am a half size, and they fit well.

These shoes were ok. The color name led me to expect something really cool, but its just shiny gray, not really metallic. They are comfortable, but the Hooper style was much more so, and I felt like they just didn't fit my foot as well. I do love the large selection of colors in this style though, and may try another later this summer.
