I keep thinking of checking these out - not so much for the "workout" but more to keep at work so if we want to walk around (indoors or outdoors), I can quickly slip into them.
Since the tennis shoe types are supposed to be super comfy, that's I'm hoping the FitFlops are also (and the benefit of having them.) I often wear flip flops/sandals to work and have walked probably a dozen times or so when I shouldn't have while wearing regular sandals... often times the pads of my feet get super sore.
So a flip flop that's super comfy and meant for walking? It seems ideal... no socks to screw around with.
Anyone try something like this or even try them on?
Re: FitFlops/Tone-Ups?
I have FitFlops. I love my FitFlops and wear them all the time (when I'm not at work since they don't really go with suits...ha).
When I got my first pair I read the "warning" label that says not to wear for more than an hour your first time wearing them and I laughed thinking I can totally wear them longer, I'm in good shape. Yeah, bad idea. Wore them shopping and we walked and walked and walked all day long. When I sat down in the car to drive home, I had spasms in my legs! It was pretty funny actually. Anyway, after that first time, I haven't had any real problems wearing them. I guess what I'm trying to say is if you get them, take the warning label seriously...
Since you're not looking to get supermodel legs from them, I'll skip the spiel about how the're a gimmick.
I have heard that they're super comfortable though...I've never tried them myself, but lots of people have raved about the comfy-ness of them.
