The range of shoes from FitFlop is proving to be extremely popular with women all over the world. They are toning shoes – that is to say, they help to tone your legs and trim your butt when you wear them and walk around as normal. Busy women everywhere must consider these shoes to be a dream come true – and they get plenty of coverage and reviews in the press and online.
One fact which is unlikely to be mentioned in reviews about FitFlops – but which will most likely be mentioned very early in the conversation if you talk to a FitFlop wearer – is the fact that FitFlops are astonishingly comfortable. Unsurprisingly, most reviews focus heavily on the potential toning benefits of FitFlops. It’s hardly surprising – a shoe that gives you a lower body workout just by walking about in it is a pretty big deal.
This is achieved by the use of a specially shaped and designed sole which generates a small element of imbalance. The muscles in the lower body attempt to re-establish the body’s balance and this causes them to work a little bit harder than normal.
However, the special sole which provides those wonderful toning effects also gives extra support for the wearer’s feet – especially in the arch area. It also increases the contact area between the sole of the foot and the sole of the shoe. That reduces the average pressure which the weight of your body exerts on the feet – and that’s what makes them so comfortable.
If you do have the chance to talk to a FitFlop owner, don’t be too surprised if you find out that they have more than one pair. Many people even have numerous pairs. The first pair are usually bought for the toning benefits. The additional pairs tend to be purchased based on the comfort of these shoes. Be warned, FitFlops can actually be somewhat addictive.
It’s noteworthy that the latest addition to the FitFlop clogs range, the Gogh Pro clog – is specifically intended for hospital and shift workers. Anybody who tends to spend a lot of their working day on their feet in other words. They have the exact same design of toning sole as the other shoes in the FitFlops range – but it is non-slip and non-marking. They also incorporate an adjustable, pivoting heel strap for a secure fit with all the convenience of a slip-on style shoe.
These have just been given their UK launch and will probably be on sale in America before very much longer.
