Product Description
The orthopedic shape of SOLE Platinum Sandals provides a continuous contact point across the sole of your foot, molding over time to provide just the right amount of customized support for your foot. This prevents the aches and pains of unsupported arches from developing, so you can wear SOLE flips all day long, free from pain and fatigue. |

*Comfortable* **Flip-Flip** But Requires Break-In! by Alex Honda (Los Angeles, CA USA) 5 Stars
June 22, 2009
I bought the SOLE MEN'S PLATINUM FLIP-FLOPS because I read rave reviews on another website about how great they were. That site was sold out as was SOLE'S website and so trusty Amazon to the rescue. They had them in stock and in my size and so I got 'em.
First off, the flip-flops are super light. They hardly weigh anything but they seem quite durable and they look pretty good too, except the front of the flip-flop seems to have this extra room jutting out from my toes. Maybe this is for added protection for the toes, I'm not sure, but my foot is as far as it will go in the strap and yet there's plenty of flip-flop to go, which is in front of my toes.
The insole foot-bed has a really good arch-support and cradles the foot, which is good for me because I have flat feet. It also feels like stepping on a nice cushion with each step.
I did have to wear them for a little while for the first couple of days that I had them because the microfiber(?) strap felt uncomfortable against my skin. So break them in first before you wear them for extended periods of time or else you might get blisters or irritation from the strap.
Now that they're broken in they feel much better. Anyway, these SOLE FLIP-FLOPS offer really good arch support for a flip-flop (the other being is Chaco Flip Sandal for Men but those are heavier), so I would recommend them if you're looking for a sandal that has a good insole for problem feet.
UPDATE: 08/26/09
I just got back from a 6-day vacation in Hawaii and the SOLE FLIP-FLOPS performed great! I used them on the beach and after snorkeling, walking in the water to get up close to sea turtles to walking around Waikiki at night and my feet never got sore or tired. And they still look good as new!
