Flip flops cover a wide range of needs and the range here reflects that — from pure beach wear to biomechanically engineered styles built for a full day on foot. FitFlop dominates the comfort end of the selection, using a multi density midsole developed with British biomechanics to distribute pressure evenly across the foot. The brand has sold over 27 million pairs since launching in 2007 and the feedback on comfort is consistent. Havaianas has been making its rubber soled flip flops in Brazil since 1962 and the range here spans their classic beach styles through to more fashion forward colourways and prints.

Teva brings its sport sandal heritage into the flip flop category with styles that handle more than just poolside use. Tommy Jeans adds a branded fashion option for anyone wanting something more logo driven, and On Running's Cloudflyer sandal brings the brand's CloudTec cushioning into a warm weather slide.
