Comfort in our footwear is essential. While the model, color, and design are important considerations, they can never be compared to feeling safe, comfortable, and without any risk to our feet.
However, we are not always aware of what comfortable means , and that is when the first problems begin to arise.
How can we choose comfortable flip-flops?
To find comfortable sandals, we just need to take a closer look at how they're designed. Most are custom-fit to the foot from the start and have the necessary measurements to ensure we wear them properly, so we won't regret the consequences over time.
Here, everything from the material you're making to the size you choose counts. When it comes to wearing shoes correctly and safely, there are several factors to consider. Below, to keep you up to date, we'll share some tips to help you make the right choice:
Light sandals
The weight of flip-flops can cause unnecessary fatigue at the end of our work and/or school day. Buying a lightweight model , in addition to completely unloading the foot, allows us to walk much better and feel complete freedom of movement. Isn't that perfect?
GEL soles
The sole is one of the most important parts of the flip-flop. It's generally recommended that it not be thin, and if you want it that way, it should be made with GEL, with the necessary characteristics to avoid the impact of the road , small stones, or any cracks we might encounter.
At this point, in addition to choosing comfortable flip-flops, we're also helping to increase the stability of the shoe. Encouraging the person's safety when walking for long hours is undoubtedly an aspect we should keep in mind, and it will greatly help us maintain the correct shape of our feet.
Sandals with insoles?
If you need to use insoles, we must carefully consider the previous section. Just as we discussed the sole, the best material for this element is GEL. Its cushioning makes the wearer feel much more comfortable , free when walking, and guaranteed not to deform the foot as they walk.
Models with little wedge
When we walk a lot, we may feel the need to have a higher heel, as walking on the ground isn't usually recommended—especially if you walk several kilometers a day. Wedge sandals are the perfect ally to find the exact style our feet need and make them feel much more secure during the walk.
In any case, it's important to emphasize that the wedge shouldn't be excessive , but just enough to take a step. A medium height will be more than enough for what you're looking for, although if you want a perfect fit, remember that the model should be made of leather and have a GEL-based insole. Do you have them?
Stylish sandals?
Walking in comfortable sandals doesn't mean completely losing style. Manufacturers, aware of many women's need for small platforms, have designed models that allow us to walk in comfortable sport shoes without sacrificing style.
Once again, we must keep in mind that the sole is GEL and that it's suitable for walking—if that's your case—for long hours. The models, which vary greatly, can be used for beach parties, glamorous summer evenings, and much more. Are you up for it?
