I loved this Fit Flop in the beginning. Felt great on my feet and looked pretty good, too. Over time, the straps have stretched out, so now they feel a little big, and I am sad about it.

I bought my first pair of Fitflops in 2009 and have 7 pair to date. However, I still like the original style with striped canvas. You can get them wet, wear them to the beach, wash your car and then go out to dinner. Please bring them back.

These are not just another version of flip flops, they are almost a shoe. Super comfortable and very sexy and strappy. They feel a little wide, but that is the only reason I took a star off. Will likely buy another pair to wear when the others wear out, which does not seem like anytime soon. They look great with dresses, shorts and pants.

I love this shoe but the straps are really quite loose (and that's considering that I have a high instep and wide feet). They are also a little long in the toe, but if I had ordered a size smaller I'm pretty sure my heel would be hanging over the back edge. I still really like these, and the foot bed is really supportive and super comfortable. Unlike other flip flops, I can wear these all day, do a lot of walking, and my feet don't hurt the next day. This sandal has 1 nubuck strap and 2 canvas straps, giving it a really casual look. If you want something that can also be worn a little more dressy, I recommend picking the all leather sling instead, or a different FitFlop style (like the Fleur - which has a narrower footbed making it fit snugger than the Sling or the Electra). All of the styles seem to be a bit long in the toe, but they are so comfortable that I just overlook this.

This shoe bears no relation to flip flops. The shoe bed has great support, the fit is secure (you don't have to flex your toe muscles to keep it on), and the size is true. The thong doesn't bother, though I wouldn't want to walk miles in them. It's a very comfortable shoe, and washable to boot.

Had to go down a half size. these are extremely comfortable and very supportive. The style is perfect for casual to comfy shoes to slip on after wearing heels and dress shoes all day.

I have had problems with my feet for many years which made it next to impossible to wear sandals. when I got my fitflops in the mail I was really surprised at how comfortable they were. I still can not wear sandals often but I can wear these for an entire day without feeling discomfort. they are comfortable and have support that most sandals do not.

I really love these shoes! I'm a difficult foot to fit as I have a high instep. These are comfortable, with flexibility and look good on a foot that isn't so pretty! I wear a size 8 but got a size 9 and they are perfect. Have received many compliments! To me they are worth the money.

I really want to keep these shoes because of the color and style, but I can't. I have bunions and the cross strap makes them very uncomfortable for me. If you don't have that issue, these are great shoes. I am addicted to Fitflops. I have a lot of them and my feet no longer hurt.

I had to buy a size up to get them wide enough. Then the cross strap was keeping my get from reaching the toes comfortably. I cut it of and now they're perfect. I really really wish they would add a wide size to these great shoes.

Almost - but not quite! These sandals looked so comfortable, and they would be, if they had some arch support. There's almost no arch support. The footbed is thick and cushioned enough, and the strap style works well on the foot - just enough support, but still a flip-flop. Sadly, I'm returning these.

I have worn Fitflops since they began, and loved them all until this model, which looks great, better than older styles, but causes me great pain on the ball of my left foot. I have had to stop wearing them entirely, because every time I try my foot becomes too painful. The leather on the outside wrap digs into the foot. I am very sad about this, as I have loved all other fitflops.

Loved these so much...but had to return them. The strap in-between the toes caused a huge blister on both of my feet the first time I tried to where them. They felt wonderful in the support but sad to say I had to return them. They need a softer material around that part of the shoe.

Although true to size in general, the strap at the top of the foot (closest to the ankle) is too loose. The shoe slips off forward when walking.

Disappointing. I bought the same style in leather with the orange toe strap in July and I haven't stopped wearing them. The nubuck leather was too scratchy to be comfortable. What a shame. I may just have to get another pair of the leather.

Much too wide. Straps have no elastic in them so the shoe does not hug your feet.
