Advantages: They are SO COMFORTABLE you forget you are wearing them

Disadvantages: May not be as fashionable as other footwear

FLY FLOT shoes – you may have heard of these or seen them advertised on the TV shopping channels, but until you actually own a pair and experience the comfort they offer you cannot appreciate how good this product is.
Don’t be put off by the picture at the top of this review, this is just one of the styles, there are other more modern ones now.Their designs are changing all the time and at the end of the seasons you can perhaps pick up a bargain in the sales.
MADE IN ITALY
Fly Flots were first manufactured in 1985 when a manufacturer, Lones, wanted to produce a shoe that gave comfort and durability. Over the last twenty years the company, which is family owned, has expanded its range and now produces mainly sandals and slippers.

DESIGN PROCESS
New styles and colours are designed for the different seasons at the Italian factory, and once the design is finished a prototype is made. This is rigorously tested prior to production of the shoes. Unless the shoes meet the rigorous tests for flexibility and hard wearing, they are not manufactured and the design is reviewed and improved. The soles on most sandals does not bend, with Fly Flots as your foot bends, the sole bends too and moulds to the shape of your foot.
Fly Flot sandals are probably not the most fashionable styles, but for comfort you simply cannot beat them.
This is due to the PRODUCTION PROCES
All Fly Flots have the special sole, which is so comfortable you really do feel as if you are walking on air! It is made up of thousands of tiny airbubbles.
The soles are shock absorbing so if you have back trouble, or suffer from arthritis or other complaint in your back or other joints, then try these amazing shoes and see how the pain is reduced. They are ideal if you work somewhere where you are walking around on hard floors all day, for example, teaching, nursing, postman etc.
The sole is self moulding and will mould itself to the natural shape of your foot, ensuring a perfect fit for you. When you take off the sandals you will be able to see the shape of your foot moulded into the sole.
ANTI SLIP SOLES
The soles are anti slip so can be worn without fear of slipping on shiny floors etc.
NO SWEATY FEET!
The leather used to make Fly Flots has been treated with an anti bacterial solution, this is permanent and therefore your feet stay sweet smelling!

STOCKISTS/PRICES
Ideal World, the shopping TV channel, and Pavers, a shoe outlet, stock Fly Flots and there are other outlets around the country which sell them. These shoes are gaining in popularity so look out for them, if there isn’t a stockist near you at the moment then use the shopping channel or look on the internet for stockists.
PRICE
Prices vary according to where you buy them, remember if you use the shopping channels that you have to add the postage and packing. You should be able to find them starting at around 18 pounds and costing anything upwards of that figure, depending on the style you prefer.
RECOMMENDATIONS
I would certainly recommend these shoes. Some of my friends have them and when I complained about back pain several friends recommended I try Fly Flots. I can’t say I was particularly keen on the styles available at first, but now I have worn them this isn’t a problem, comfort comes first! For the first time in years my feet are comfy! I bought my first pair this summer and have hardly worn any other shoes since, they are so comfortable I feel like I am walking on air! Also, the impact on my joints has been less severe and I have suffered less pain as a result.
If you walk a lot in your job or are on your feet all day and are not bothered about the very latest fashion shoes, then do try a pair of Fly Flots.

Summary: If it is comfort you need for your feet, then these are the shoes for you
