I'ven been dealing with a chronic case of posterior tibial tendonosis in my left foot for the last year. Among other things, this means no walking around barefoot or in shoes with no/poor arch support. I spend most of my time in any shoe I can squeeze my custom orthotics into. The rest of the time I'm in my Oofos (which I love). We're about to go on vacation, so I'm looking for a pair of flip-flops that have a similar level of comfort and support as the Oofos, but a bit less of that cheap "Croc sandal" look to them. Anyone have a recommendation for nicer-looking flip-flops similar in feel to Oofos?

My wife likes her chacos flip-flops. They have a pretty good arch support.

Flip flops are absolute torture devices compared to slides. I got myself a pair or Nike Benassi’s last year and will never look back.

We have hardwood floors and they absolutely kill me feet so I wear Oofos around the house 24/7. Outside the house my sandals of choice are Chacos. Not as soft as Oofos but good arch support.

My Oofos look similar to any of my Reef or Sanuk flip flops. My main fashion critic(wife) would let me know if she thought they were Croc like.

A really good family friend is a pediatrist and he recommended Chacos for their support of the entire foot. I loved Chacos to begin with but after a long run or good brick workout, I will wear those gladly over slides or other shoes.
Chacos for the win!

I have really bad feet and couldn't where any flip flops without arch & metatarsal support for various reasons (including a related severe posterior tibial tendonitis and stress fracture injury) and finally found a brand that is great. I have three pairs right now and they 're awesome The are the only sandals I can wear except Birkenstocks.
