Vionic Celebrates National Flip Flop Day by Promoting Comfort with Empowering Information

SAN RAFAEL, Calif., June 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Flip flops are a summer footwear staple, but not all flip flops are created equally. To celebrate National Flip Flop Day on Friday, June 18th, Vionic Innovation Lab Member, Jacqueline Sutera, DPM, is encouraging people to put extra thought into pairs they purchase to break free from the discomfort that can arise from wearing them.

"Flip flops are lightweight, versatile, and budget-friendly compared to most other sandal styles, yet when it comes to supportive design, some traditional flip flops offer little to no support," says Dr. Sutera. "Supportive flip flop styles, like those in the Vionic Tide Collection, are a breath of fresh air that your feet will thank you for."

According to Dr. Sutera, three main "good for you" characteristics to keep in mind when shopping for flip flops include arch support, cushioning, and  deep heel-cup stability  (features which exemplify Vionic Three-Zone Comfort technology), along with the following do's and don'ts:

DON'T: Wear very flat and thin types of flip flops when doing a lot of walking or standing. Flat and thin flip flops can potentially force your toes and foot muscles to over grip, causing problems like shin splints, sprains, tendonitis, and plantar fasciitis. Reserve thin types for very limited use on the beach or poolside, which is what they are intended for.

DO: Use more supportive flip flops for longer periods of walking and standing. Those by Vionic are designed to stay on your feet, allowing your toes to relax and keep your ankles and calves in a neutral position. This creates better alignment and avoids straining of muscles and tendons. Vionic flip flops are also clinically proven to help reduce heel pain in those who suffer from plantar fasciitis and other foot ailments. To learn more, visit: vionicshoes.com/heel-pain-relief-study

Vionic injection-molded rubber flip flop soles are as lightweight as standard thong sandals yet much more durable and supportive. Bionic flip flops come in numerous colors, prints, and patterns in both simple and embellished designs.
