My cousin’s in England are raving about them and we’re bringing them over as gifts because they cannot get them there yet. I’m checking them out for myself too!
Preliminary findings suggest that ground reaction force travels safely behind the knee joint and directly through the pelvis. This is thought to be the primary reason for consumers reporting reduced lower back pain. A full study is currently under way.
Testimonials from happy, pain-free FitFlop wearers have been pouring in for over a year now, detailing everything from relief from lower back aches and unidentified plantar foot pain to reduction in pain from osteoarthritis and injured limbs. As FitFlop sandals were originally designed just to load up and challenge leg muscles, we chalked this up to an auspicious side effect from our biomechanically aligned shoes. But a new study from Salford University shows us exactly why FitFlop footwear make people feel so good:
“These are a great investment. I purchased three pairs for my sisters and I. My back and foot pain have diminished by 50% even so I no longer take pain meds. I truly recommend them.”

I love my FitFlops, they have helped trememdously since my car accident and seem to stop my pelvis from rotating. Love the fact you’ve brought out Goghs, would love to try a pair in black, I would be able to wear them all day and work and my osteopath has suggested that I get a pair.”

THE STUDY ABOVE SHOWS WHY PUTTING ON A PAIR OF FITFLOPS CAN PROVIDE INSTANT RELIEF! WE RECOMMEND FITFLOP FOOTWEAR TO ANY MAN OR WOMAN WHO COMPLAINS OF LOWER BACK PAIN.

I have taken on a new lease of life since finding Fitflops. I had unexplained low back pain, leg and hip pain and couldn’t walk very far at all without discomfort and pain. Saw these advertised in a Sunday magazine and read the reviews and thought I’d try a pair of Billows. Within 2 hours I noticed a difference. 3 days later I walked 2 miles without pain, I’m so grateful. I wear them most of the time now. One pair of Billows, a pair of Goghs and 3 pairs of Fitflops. I cannot thank you enough for making me mostly pain free, I recommend them to all my friends and colleagues. I love you all!!

I bought my first pair in February 09 and have just bought another pair; I have found them to be the most comfiest pair of sandals I have ever owned.
As a Podiatrist I have recommended them to a number of patients, who need a stylish sandal that is providing cushioning and support to the feet, with the added bonus of gaining better muscle tone. I would like to be able to retail these in my clinic.

I have suffered from lower back pain for the last 7 years! Every day I have had to take medication, I bought my Fitflops on Sat.

I have been recommending Fitflops to all my friends and family, so far 6 people have taken my advice and invested in a pair…I’m deffinately overjoyed with the results!!!

I have been fighting lower back pain since Nov 2005 and have been admitted to hospital with severe pain. Through my chiropractitioner I have managed to stop taking daily medication and now only take omega 3 supplement. (which helps keep joints supple). Bought my first pair of fitflops in August 2008 after foot surgery and couldn`t believe how comfortable they were - they are better than bare feet.! Just bought the walkstar royal blue and love them as well. I am convinced that my fitflops maintain my pain free back and also keep my feet in good condition. I can even run for a bus in them!

I was in pain for a very long time from wearing flat shoes and flip flops until I discovered Fit Flop. I didn’t realize that it was good for planter fasciaitis and heel pain until I saw an add on a NY city train and thats when it hit me that their claim was very true. I really wish they came out with sneakers or shoes because I walk alot and stand alot and I am hoping they make it . This is truely the best for people with heel spurs and planter fasciaitis. Thank you!!

I thought "no way - can’t really work," but instead, I am stunned and amazed. I have sacroiliac joint dysfunction, coccydynia, and degenerative conditions in my back. I bought a pair of fit flops because I’ll try anything to reduce my constant back pain. I’m blown away. Not only has my back pain improved, but my legs, butt, hips and even tummy are already slimming down after walking 2-3 miles a day for one week in my fitflops!
