chitobae Flip Flops Sandal for Women

YES! SO GOOD! (Army green is totally true khakigreen/drab/army and the sole is chocolate brown, I normally wear a 9w/10 in womens and an 8 in mens tennis shoes. I bought these in both 9 and 10, 10 is perfect.) Ok i have the worst experience with flops but i love them. I have a wide foot and painful toes, heels, and weak painful ankles. My pinky toe always hangs off the sole and i swear my index toe does all the curling/bracing/hanging on hard work to hold my foot in when i step. I often find my foot fitting in it on an angle, like if i let my foot land naturally my heel would be in the ground -- NOT WITH THESE! I just got them today and havent even earned the bisters i for sure will get (and they'll be worth it!) But the sole is a thick foam not too squishy but soft AND LIGHT, the rope is soft but seemingly natural braided natural fibers that will likely cause the initial rubbing blisters, but because the fit is so secure and great i dont expect much shifting/rubbing. I CAN STEP MORE LIKE IM WEARING A TENNIS SHOE THAN A FLOP! Oh my gosh my heel stays in its proper place, the flop stays very close to my sole when i step, i dont feel my toes trying to force the flop to not fly off when i walk AND ITS WIDE ENOUGH FOR ME! Although my pinky toe may eventually find its way out i am giving that a resounding "who cares?!" because the best is soooo great. I just ordered 5 more, some duplicate colors and sizes for safe-keeping. This has been 3 years of searching for a flop to replace my beloved 15year old disintegrated pair. Soooo many sad-faced returns. ****If you are older or have mobility trouble or pain these are worth trying!!!! My foot is more secure in them. I dont feel like a flip flop related ankle roll or trip or injury is as likely as with others, i feel like my footing is much more secure/sure, i feel like my mobility and pain level overall will be better because im not actively trying to walk in a flop that so desperately wants to be free from me, they are super lightweight... the only down-side i can see is what others have mentioned - you cannot slip into these. You are actively putting a shoe on. That might change over years as they get broken in, i had a similar pair in the 90s that eventually became slip-ons, but as they are today they require (me with my mobility issues) sitting in a chair and positioning them. At this time, even though i struggle with sciatica and sitting positions and arm extension and fingertip numbness and control - i am (in spirit, of course) jumping up and down inside. WORTH TRYING!

I've had these well over 1 year and I still wear them a few times a week. Totally worth the purchase. Size fits, I wear 8.5. I do wash them every now and then because the rope material will get dirty sometimes. But not the color choice I expected. I got a purple/blue combo. But very happy with these, very comfy and durable. The pic I'm posting is from a year later. Still going strong.

I bought these flip flops because I was looking to replace another pair of Teva Olowahu's. I've worn Teva's for years & own many pair in many colors. I had never seen these Chitobae flip flops before & thought I'd give them a try after reading the reviews & seeing they were about $10 less per pair than Teva's. As other reviews have stated they are very comparable to Teva's. One complaint was that you couldn't just slide your foot into the sandal & the webbing needed to be adjusted. After a few days I've not had that experience. I'm able to slide my foot right in now. The sole is just as thick & comfy. The webbing though is not exactly the same. On one pair it rubs just a little so I'm not sure how they'd be on a long walk. The other pair the webbing just doesn't sit in the right place on my foot making it less comfortable. I've had neither one of these issues with my beloved Teva's & I'm hoping as I wear the Chitobse's more they'll "break in". All this being said they are very cute & I love the colors. I got the navy & the gray. The gray really is gray when you look close but reminds me of denim. Maybe because the sole is navy blue. I like them enough that I'm going to order at least the Raspberry color also. I wish they came in more colors! The very slight discomfort is worth it & I'm hoping that soon I can say I love them as much as my Teva's.

I was very pleasantly surprised how great these sandals really are. I had originally bought some fancy ortho something or another sandals, tho they were pricey, tho they seemed like they would be comfy, their sizes were off and didn't have wide width. So, I these in the meantime, till I found some. But after using them, I am just going to buy more pairs of these in more colors. Fits great. Looks adorable on, super comfy and sturdy. I use them all the time. Had them for months now and still have their shape & cushion, still look new. PS..Also, super easy to clean. The times I've walked our dogs and stepped in other dog's doodles. Just couple swipes on the ground or grab the flippy & tap on a rock, it easily comes off like they were "Teflon". So, no more tracking it around till I get somewhere to clean it off. Even when I stepped in warm gum on vacation, (while it took a bit more effort than a doodle, but not much) & not nearly as impossible as it when any other shoe. Seriously, love everything about them. Brilliant!

I just received them. They do seem to be well-made. I do like the straps they are comfortable. The soul is a little thicker than the tevas I used to have. I ordered size 9, I usually wear a 9 or 9 1/2. These fit well. So far the only complaint I have is that the soul on these are a blue color and I expected either a black or really dark brown soul. I’ll see how well they hold up compared to Tevas.

These remind me little bit of the "thongs" I used to get as a kid at the the dime store, but 100 times better. They break in quickly and can easily wipe off dust from them. They are easy to get on and off and very comfy too. They are perfect for watering plants on the patio (since you can get them wet) or taking the garbage out. They look really cute on and I have really ugly feet! These sandals make an ugly foot look good! I love them so much I got them in black (the color of mud) and navy blue (the color of water). I usually wear a six and a half but I ordered a 6 as I have had bad luck going up a size to a seven usually way to big. The six fits perfectly, no complaints. Glad I took a chance on them. They are one of my new favorite sandals!

They fell apart as soon as I wore one

Had these for almost a week now & ive really put them to the test. First let me say I’m usually a 6 1/2 and got a size 7 in these and they fit perfect. The first day the ropes were really tight and irritating to my feet but I wore them in after a full day & they were super comfortable after that. The support from the sandals are great, I have a high arch in my foot and those $1 old navy flip flops were killing my feet so I was looking for something with more support here & found it. The only negative I would say about these shoes is that they aren’t easy to slip on. Especially after coming out of the water at the beach with sandy wet toes ... def have to wait until you have dry feet and even then sometimes you have to readjust the ropes for comfort. But they look great & feel great on my feet so I would say overall worth the price !
