Flip Flops....

Okay, I want comfy flip flops.

The $5 ones from Old Navy are just not doing it for me.

I spent ALLLLLLLLL of my time in flip flops over the summer. I'd wear my crocs all the time but it would look too funny.

So these TEVA ones are getting great reviews, and they aren't too expensive. The footbed supposedly molds to your foot after a few wears. I had the old funky tevas back in the 90s and loved them, they were so comfy.

Anyway, are either are these OK looking, or totally ugly??

i have a pair, and i really don't like them all that much. they make too many slappy noises for me. i am a size 9.5 so i ordered a 10 and the straps are somewhat loose so maybe it is the fit, but i really don't like them.

have you tried the ones from J Crew? theyre better than the ON ones --

i know what you mean about the ON ones - i know theyre only 5 bucks but i fell like they are wearing out in the heel area really fast. ive bought like 3 pairs in black already this summer!!

by the way...i like the first tevas you posted better than the second pair

i haven't tried jcrew. i was going to order them tonight but decided to look at zappos instead and found the tivas. I think i definately need a flip flop with a cloth strap. the plastic straps kinda bother me. also i get heel spurs so i thought the tevas had a better quality foam for the footbed.....and i read the reviews that it helped with that.

I love Reefs, which are similar to Tevas, they both have the thicker foam foot beds and the cloth straps.

They are very very comfy, I worn my reefs walking for miles.

I have a pair of Teva flip flops -- they're the most comfortable flip flops EVER and probably the most comfy pair of shoes I own.

They come in a bunch of colors -- mine are purple and gray.
