The details

As the sandal that helped launch the brand in 2007, the Walkstar is one of Fitflop's most popular styles. Since its launch, millions of the sandals have been sold worldwide, and shoppers have fallen for their sporty look and comfortable design.

This new version of the Walkstar has striped light webbing straps, leather detailing (including the FitFlop roundel on the front), a contoured wide footbed, and cushioning "Microwobbleboard" midsoles.

According to the brand, their patent-pending design "helps absorb shock but can also diffuse underfoot pressure, by instantly increasing the contact area of the foot to the midsole."

The sandals currently come in five colours of solid or metallic leather.

What people are saying

These sandals have earned a 4.5-star rating from shoppers who have raved about their high quality and great arch support. Unlike many sandals, shoppers even say that these flip-flops are comfortable enough to be worn all day.

"Having arthritis in my spine and my knees, walking can be difficult — but put on my Fitflops and 10,000 steps a day is no problem. Love them, nothing else compares," shared one reviewer.

"I've spent many a summer AND winter wearing Fitflop sandals as the shock absorption for my painful joints has yet to be rivalled," added another.

Shoppers have praised their lightweight and cushioned design, which one reviewer said feels like "heaven on the foot."

Some reviewers have found that these sandals had a few issues when it comes to sizing, as they found the toe area to be "too long" and needed to size down — especially if you're between sizes.

Others with wide feet weren't a fan of the webbed strap, which doesn't have any stretch too it and wound up feeling "too tight."

Verdict

While it may still be early in the year, some sizes of these comfy flip-flops have already begun selling out. If customer reviews are anything to go off off, you can expect that these sandals will provide plenty of support and cushioning to feet.
