Product Information

Full details

The Fitflop iQushion Leather Flip Flops are designed for adult women seeking a blend of classic beach-style aesthetics and advanced orthopaedic-inspired comfort. Their primary benefit is the proprietary iQushion air-foam midsole, which provides superior arch support and pressure diffusion, making them ideal for long-distance walking or extended daily wear; however, users should note that the brand recommends sizing up if they fall between standard sizes for the best fit.

FAQs

Should I size up or down for Fitflop iQushion sandals?

If you are between sizes, it is recommended to size up for this style to ensure optimal comfort.

Are these flip flops suitable for wide feet?

The sandals are designed with a standard width fit. Users with wide feet may find the elasticated strap too snug and might prefer sizing up.

Can I wear these in the water?

The sole and footbed are waterproof; however, since the upper is made of leather, excessive exposure to water should be avoided to prevent damage.

How do I clean the leather straps?

Wipe the leather gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or immerse the leather in water.

Do these provide arch support?

Yes, they feature an anatomically contoured footbed designed to provide more support than a standard, flat-soled flip flop.

Troubleshooting

Straps feeling too tight on the top of the foot

The straps are elasticated, but if discomfort persists, ensure your feet are dry. If the fit remains restrictive, you may need a larger size.

Slippage on wet surfaces despite 'slip-resistant' claim

Check the outsole for debris or grit buildup in the tread patterns. Clean the sole with a mild soap and water solution to restore grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent arch support compared to standard flat flip flops
  • Soft leather material adds a touch of sophistication
  • Waterproof construction makes them versatile for beach or city
  • Superior impact absorption for joint relief

Cons

  • Leather requires more care than synthetic alternatives
  • Standard sizing can be tricky for half-sizes
  • Price point is higher than basic plastic beach sandals

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these sandals feature a leather upper, proper care is essential to maintain their aesthetic and structural integrity. Avoid submerging the leather straps in salt water for prolonged periods; if they do get soaked, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators. For daily cleaning, wipe the footbed with a damp cloth to remove debris. Regarding compatibility, the shoe is a standard width fit. If your feet are particularly wide or if you find yourself between sizes, it is highly recommended to size up, as the foot-hugging elasticated top line can feel snug.
