Your Favorite Flip Flops/Sandals

I'm leaving Saturday to head to The Keys and I generally live in flip flops during the summer.  We'll obviously be doing a ton of walking, but I can't bring myself to wear tennis shoes. 

I'm looking at Zappos and eyeing some of the more upscale/supportive flip flop brands like OluKai, Chaco, etc.  They have high reviews, but just wanted to see what some of your favorite flip flop/sandal brands were...

Right now I live in my American Eagle flops, but I don't think they're going to provide near the support I'll need.

Re: Your Favorite Flip Flops/Sandals

  • I live in my Rainbows. I'm probably going to need a new pair before the summer is over. Probably not as supportive as you're looking for, but I love them.

  • I normally wear Old Navy's - the 2 for $5, but they're far from supportive. I had a pair of Havaianas, but I couldn't tell much of a difference between them and ON's.

  • I wear AE and Rainbows most of the time, but a couple of years ago I bought a pair of the FitFlops and actually really loved them.  They were so comfortable.  I have no idea what happened to them, I suspect I left them on vacation somewhere but not sure.  I'm contemplating buying another pair though.
  • I live in my birkenstocks. They're supportive enough for me when I do lots of walking and are so comfortable.
  • I wear Rocket Dogs. They have raised arches that make them tons more comfortable than regular flip flops to wear.
    We have so much time, and so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.

  • I'm on the Old Navy 2/$5 train. I also have rainbows, which I do love. And, despite what everyone on F&B says, I have found Crocs to have a good non-slip support (and the sandals aren't as hideous as the other shoes).

  • I LOOOVE my Reefs. I live in those during the summer, and so does hubby. He's got the pair with the beer bottle opener on the bottom. :) (Or whatever bottle you want to open!)

    EDIT: They do have arch support!

    I love my Reefs, too. I have tried to talk J into a pair with the bottle opener on the bottom, but he swears by his AEs.

  • They're not super supportive, but I live in my Havaianas during the summer!

  • It depends on the look you're going for but I got a pair of nike sport flip flops a week ago and love them. They are a basic black and have an all gel cushion.

  • I have a few pairs of the Cole Haan ones with Nike Air in them and LOVE them. I hiked all over Greece in them and my feet were never tired. They have more support than regular flip flops but aren't as cheap.
