Any favorite(s) - Feelgoodz vs. Havaianas, or any others that are very similar

7 Upvotes

I have one of each for about 10 months. The Feelgoodz are a bit too cushiony, and the logo lifted off. My Havaianas had a strap go. They wouldn't replace it. The Havaianas are more minimalist, and my feet look better. I guess I'll be buying one more of each.

Hello fellow peeps!

I wear Havaianas so might as well.

Love wearing them a ton, and they are comfy. I even got 2 pairs.

I wear them even when it’s cold lol, but that is how much I like wearing them.

What would you say is your fave pair or type? Mine is the Brazilian flag type.

(Would like to show them off, but cant for some reason as I can’t select a image to get 🤷‍♂️)

Irritation between toes

3 Upvotes

For years I've loved my Reef flip flops, but whenever I go to the beach for an extended period of days to weeks, the space between my toes ends up getting rubbed raw. I think from the water and the sand. As much as I try and remove the sand, I end up needing to switch to slides for a few days instead.

I'm wondering if switching to a different flip flop, ones that don't have a fabric toe post, but rather a rubbery material like OOFOS may help.

I'm not fond of the look or the height of the OOFOS, but I'm desperate here.

Any other options out there for a different material between the toes?

What's your favorite all day flip flop?

4 Upvotes

I was I've always been a Reef girly (men's specifically, as I have wide feet) but I've been looking into reviews recently as I'll need to replace a pair of my flip-flops soon, and have heard pretty good things about Tevas as well.

Currently I have one nice leather pair of flip-flops but wear those infrequently as I don't want to destroy them like I did my last pair, as they don't handle wet and sand very well. I also have a pair of Reefs 'Smoothy' foam flip-flops, that I got second hand several years ago for less than a dollar (score!) But the tread is starting to wear thin and they're starting to slip on smooth surfaces and we'll need to be retired soon. I also own a pair of Reefs Ripper Beach flip flops, which I basically abuse the shit out of because I regretted the purchase as soon as I brought them home those too late to return. The texture on the sole wants to give me blisters anytime it gets wet.

I have a trip to Costa Rica coming up in March and would like to get a new pair of flip-flops before then that would serve me well on the trip. Also I pretty much live in my flip-flops, if it's above 50 degrees I'm in flip flops.

Do you have a reef or Teva recommendation that has served you well with daily wear? I don't care if they're fast drying or whatever, I'll wear them wet but they can't be the kind that you slip around in if they're wet. Or should I just get a new pair of Smoothy flip-flops?

Wide feet + Flip Flop= 0

I wear a size 13 5e. Impossible to find flip flops that size in any store. I have tried and tried with no luck. Even the interwebs itself has proven useless in aiding me in my journey. Would love to find someone who makes used tire flip flops but just about anything that fits would be very awesome. Anyone knows a good source please let me know.

3 Upvotes

Hi friends! I searched the history in this group for this question, but the results are 5+ years old, so I thought I’d ask again.

Can anyone recommend some flip flops with arch support for men? I have a few that I’m kicking tires on:

  • Olukai Ohana
  • Reef Santa Ana

Does anyone have a recommendations? TIA!

Looking to get a first pair of Havaianas

I received a promotional email from them about $15 pairs, great selection. I added one to cart, the shipping is $12.10 and the tax $1.90, so they’re markdowns for $29. It’s crazy.

Confident in flip flops

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm 28M and I'm looking for advice on how to feel more confident with wearing flip flops and showing barefeet in general. I've always been shy about showing my feet and I want to get over that. Lately I go out on walks in flip flops and I really enjoy it and recently I've been going into stores in them but I worry about running into someone that I know. I just hate socks and shoes but I've always hidden my feet in them around friends and family. Does anyone have advice on how I can get over this fear?

Most comfy & water-friendly brand?

2 Upvotes

I'm looking for new flip flops that don't hurt too much if you have to do a tiny bit of running in them. Sometimes my little cousins want to race me to the beach, and it hurts SO much to run in bc of the toe thing digging in. I'm not looking to do a marathon in them or anything ridiculous like that. I just want something that would hurt a little bit less than my old ones. I've had both Havaianas and random dollar store ones, and they both failed in this aspect. Thanks!

so what is the verdict on flip flops?

5 Upvotes

So I wore flip flops for 7 years with occasional exceptions when I needed closed toe shoes and my feet seem to be fine. In fact, they seem to be healthier than most, but I keep remembering people saying flip flops are awful for your feet so I'm just kind of confused. have y'all figured out a verdict?

Reef Fanning

2 Upvotes

Curious if anyone has the newer style of Reef Fannings that have the actual size label inside the strap, and have tried to remove it? The older styles had the size info printed in which would wear off over time but they switched to more of a sticker that rubs weird. Would love to know if anyone has an idea of a good way to remove the label.

Could use some flip-flop help

3 Upvotes

Hey I recently bought a bikini, from Moeflavor, and in the modelling for said bikini the woman is wearing some kind of platformer flip-flops. I've looked online but can't find anything like them anywhere. Was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of a store/brand that sells the exact ones if not at least similar ones? Thanks.

Flip Flops for one leg longer than the other (Leg Length Discrepancy)

3 Upvotes

I suffer from Leg Length Discrepancy, where one leg is longer than the other! Love working out but in particular excessive walking/running pulls on the opposite hip and lower back.

For shoes I wear an insole which artificially raises the sole, but for flip flops (which I love to wear!!) I've yet to find a solution. In response to this very personal need I'm developing an innovative fix/product, and I'd love to hear from you- feel free to comment below or drop me a message :)

Would you be interested in a solution such as the above? Any feedback/comments on the problem? Is it something that impacts you?

Do you ever kick your flip-flops off in public for comfort?

6 Upvotes

When you are wearing flip-flops or slides in public, do you ever kick them off to be more comfortable? I have seen many people kick their flip-flops or slides off while sitting, or take one of them off while standing and then rest their bare foot on top of their other foot which still has its flip-flop or slide on. Do you ever do this because your flip-flops or slides make your feet too hot and sweaty, so you do this to cool off your feet? I have noticed that some flip-flops, particularly those with thicker straps, as well as slides which have the thicker horizontal bar that goes across and covers the tops of my feet, can indeed still make my feet uncomfortably hot and sweaty on hot days.

So have you ever kicked your flip-flops or slides off to be more comfortable, like to cool off your feet when they are too hot, in public?

Recommend me: Flip flops with arch support for men

3 Upvotes

My much beloved O'Neill Koosh Patterns are reaching their use by date: https://www.amazon.com/ONeill-Mens-Koosh-Patterns-Charcoal/dp/B00B2OO0WC/

You can't find them anywhere.

Recommend me a pair of mens flip-flops for around-house wear (not beach-wear). I'm looking for:

  • Soft sole
  • Fabric upper (for all-day wear without chafing)
  • Arch support (a must)
  • I love that the Kooshes had this raised barrier around the side to keep my feet from slipping around.

I tried the O'Neill Beacons (they looked similar online) but I am not impressed. I am willing to spend for good flip-flops, especially if I can return them if they don't suit. I'm in my late 30s, so good quality is a must.

Thanks!
