The first FitFlop sandal was sold in 2007, after Dr. David Cook and Darren James (biomechanists at London South Bank University LSBU) collaborated with Marcia Kilgore (an entrepreneur and multi-tasking mum) to create the world ’s first muscle-activating flip flop. Built with simple sport y looking upper straps and an ergonomically engineered Microwobbleboard midsole, the concept was a phenomenal – and global – success. So when fans began to send feedback detailing how ‘fantastic’ FitFlop™ sandals made them feel (subsequent research at Salford University uncovered our Microwobbleboard technology had remarkable underfoot-pressure diffusing and shock attenuating properties), Kilgore decided to take this technology and weave it into a full, multi-occasion footwear collection. Now boasting two patent-pending technologies: Microwobbleboard and Biomimetix midsoles, FitFlop’s goal is to create fun, energizing, beautiful shoes that – when you wear them – make you feel like you’ve got the world at your feet.

Great Alternative to Flip Flops
These FitFlops that I ordered in a size 7, fit a little smaller than a similar style of FitFlop I had purchased about 4 years ago in a department store. My toes go very close to the edge of the shoe, but still have a little bit of room. I was used to having about a half inch of extra room at the end of my shoe, so it took me a little bit of time to get used to them. The shiny black color I ordered this time was dressy enough to wear to a summer wedding and looked great with my dress that had a black satin sash. I usually wear a 7 1/2 or a 8 in other shoes, so I knew the FitFlop ran large, which is why I ordered the 7. I think the size 8 would have been too big. The FitFlop is an extremely comfortable shoe and gives my feet enough arch support so I can walk in them all day with no problems. I ordered a pair for my sister for her birthday and she loves hers, too. The plum colored ones were for my sister. They are a great warm weather shoe and I'd highly recommend them as a comfortable, stylish alternative to regular flip flops.

Fit As Expected
These are my fifth pair of fitflops. I love them. However, I do notice that although I always get the same size (I size down 1/2), they do not always fit as expected. These are snug enough to hug my foot, and like other pairs, the footbed is the same, very comfortable. The only reason I have not given them 5 stars is because the thong part is a bit too thick. I have been wearing them for a few days around the house and they seem to feel better, but have read other reviews which complained that they got sores between the toes. I hope this does not happen. I do wish FitFlop would make a thinner piece or one made of material.

I LOVE these sandals.
FlipFlop is not the right word for FitFlops. They do fit and they don't flop. This is the second pair that I've owned. I bought the first pair four years ago and am still wearing them as casual in-the-house shoes when I want to relax my feet. I've never been able to wear conventional sandals because they offer no support whereas these sandals with their robust, solid sole and excellent fit are perfect for me.These shoes are so comfortable that I am not aware of having anything on my feet. This pair I will most likely use to go to the pool but they definitely could be worn shopping or to a casual event.When I first read about FitFlops I had a show me attitude, after I bought a pair, I realized everything that I'd read was true. Very happy with this purchase.

Very cool Fitflops BUT.....
Got super fast shipping from Amazon! The purple Walkstar 3 Fit Flops are very fun and comfy. Unlike my Pietra Fit Flops, I got a blister from the thong on one toe, probably because I walked in them too much the second time I wore them. (?) Anyhow, I think they were a good buy. They are really "bouncy" in a good way when you walk in them. Fitflops are the only things on my feet in the summer now. LOVE THEM! ..... After having these for a year, I've found that one of the sandals must be defective because I cannot really walk in it for long. The thong rubbed a groove into the base of my toe area which took a long time to heal. I haven't had this problem with my other Fitflops. I wear these for short stints, and don't allow the thong to really rub up against my toe area. :-(

FitFlopFit
This is my 6th pair of FitFlops. I love them. I live in them. I have special needs type feet, hammer toe, and FitFlops are supportive and very walkable. Great product, can't endorse them enough.That said; this beautiful red patent leather FitFlops bite the inside of my long middle toe. I have to send them back but because I threw out all the packaging because of my prior experience I'm afraid there might be an altercation. It will be a test for Amazon Customer Service.I'm especially sad because they were on sale and a wonderful bargain! And so pretty....

Worst fitflops ever
The worst fit flop of my 8 pairs. Uncomfortable, no support on arch area, uncomfortable on entire bottom of feet. Feels like bumps inside the shoe. Pokes into heel. Will check to see if I can still return. Only have had for under 2 weeks- tried to give them a chance. May be defective. Love the red-will never buy this style again. Maybe they are knockoffs as something is very wrong with these as fit flops are usually the best quality and comfortable shoe I have ever owned.

Not the Walkstars I once knew!
I have worn the Walkstars in patent leather for years. I have ordered every color I could get from black, red,blue,purple, bronze, etc. They all fit great, first time on. I have a very narrow foot and the size 6 in this style has been just wonderful. I was so excited to see the Nude color eas available and couldn't wait to add one more color to my comfy shoe wardrobe. What a Disappointment ! They were huge. Way to wide and loose on my foot. I don't know if the sizing has changed or if this was just a one time thing. I will order other colors in this style as they are available just to make sure.

Love these
I love the shoes in general. They are shiny and summery. However the "nude" color is definitely warm pink in tone. I actually really like the color and I think depending on your skin tone it could be a perfect shade of nude. But for my skin tone I need something in more of a camel-type nude so they must go back. Would love it if they were to offer these in a darker shade as well because I was really excited at the prospect of getting a nude pair; I love how nude elongates the leg and can be worn with anything. As far as fit goes I wear 8.5 in most shoes and 8 in FitFlops and these fit as expected in size 8, comfy and snug.
