Not all experts agree that flip flops are bad for you.

Look at what's on sale! I bought the last style. I would have bought the margarita ones but they didn't have size 8.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Pinot Noir in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO"

LOVE LOVE LOVE Flip Flops!!

Highly recommend Sketcher tone up flip flops. Not only are they stylish but tone your muscles as well.

I concur on the Tone-ups!! I got a couple of pairs for the summer and they have been great. I like the way they feel between the toes much better than the Croc flipflops and they are good for my two=mile walk and general wear. I like the style too.

I'm with you.... hate the sound, hate when folks wear them that shouldn't cause of icky feet, and I personally think they're uncomfortable. But I know I'm in the minority. ;)
