Flip flops might be a summer staple, but they aren’t known for being the sturdiest, most supportive sandal around. However, we’re here to put an end to the fashion stereotype. We put on our thinking shopping caps and got to work scrounging up the most comfortable flip flops on the market. (Remember that flimsy pair you wore in your college dorm’s shower? Yeah, these picks are so much better.) We’re talking durable designs that will last for years, styles with arch support and cushioned footbeds, beach-ready, waterproof options and cozy picks featuring added benefits like non-slip tread and shock-absorbing technology. Basically, if you’re hoping to snag some flip flops that will look good and help your feet feel even better, there’s a pair for you on this list. Here are 15 of our favorites.
