I’m not big into fitness gimmicks and magic tricks – products that promise results with just the simple pop of a pill or a 5-minute investment.
The fact of the matter is I don’t really need anyone to tell me “what works” when it comes to getting fit, losing weight, and being healthy. I already know that the solution is regular exercise and nutritious eating. Period. No DVDs, weight machines, fitness apparatuses, diet cookbooks, or gym memberships needed!
That said, it is kinda fun to get a little extra assistance from a product. Take, for example, The FitFlop. According to the website, “FitFlop midsoles incorporate patent-pending micro-wobbleboard technology, to give you a workout while you walk.”
Supposedly, these wonder shoes help tone and trim your legs, thighs, and buttocks – just by walking in them! The testimonies of dedicated FF wearers are numerous and quite positive. Some wearers proclaim that their muscles ached after just 30 minutes of wearing these babies. I wore my sandals around town this summer – for much longer than 30 minutes – with no aching muscles. Maybe I just have strong leg muscles…or maybe the FitFlops can’t do exactly what they promise.
That said…
- FitFlops are much more attractive than other fitness-inspired shoes I’ve seen on the market. The FitFlops actually look pretty normal and – dare I say it? – cute.
- FitFlops are comfortable with a spongy base and wide straps.
- FitFlops retail for about $50 (which isn’t much more than your average sandal).
Do I think your legs will look like the ones pictured after wearing FitFlops? Nope – not without exercise. Sorry to break it to you. Do I think that the sandals might add a little extra umph to your step (especially compared to a regular flat-as-a-pancake flip-flop)? Yes, I do. Do I think such an investment is worth it? I’ll let you decide that for yourself…







That would be cool but 3 1/2 sizes too small LOL I would love to try them sometime though. Any kind of flip flops rock my world ha ha
Worth a try. . . MKW
I’ve heard about these before, and wondered what a real woman thought. I’m so glad you tried them out and let us know.
I’d love to have a pair, but, honestly, I won’t be dishing out 50 buckaroos… BUT! I’d love to give my sister-in-law a that little spring in her step :) It’d be great for her back! And I’d score big props :)

Should fit me perfect I suppose!

I bought a pair 7s this summer and they are too big for me – I’d love to trade them for a pair of 6s. Then I can have a giveaway on my own blog!
I find them quite comfortable and spongy, but didn’t really notice any sore muscles…. The workout came from trying to keep them on my foot due to the weird sizing.
Just my size! Thanks for offering!
These are so cute and are actually my size! I need all the motivation I can get to get excited about exercising and these shoes just might do the trick.
I’ve wanted these for quite some time now and the silver ones are so cute! And, they are my size!
Looks comfy!!
Love the concept and perfect size for my feet which could use some TLC.
Wow! I feel almost like Cinderella! These would be just my size! Now if only I could win them! ;)
Although I could not wear them, my feet are too big-my teenage granddaughter could wear them and she loves silver.
this is a nice giveaway
Darn my huge feet! Size 6 won’t work for me, but they look like an interesting idea that I’d be willing to try.
P.S. I tagged you if you’re interested at:

I was wondering about that, I wear a 7 and got my fit flops in a 7 and they were too big

o thank you for this giveaway ! awesome
OMG, I was just saying how awful it was to have size 6 feet when every in the world has size 6 feet! Wait.. that might hinder me here too, oh well!
Hooray for size 6 and getting fit!
These would be perfect for my sister! She has been wanting them. I like them too but they are not my size. I would be happier if she got them anyway.
I have 2 pair of FitFlops and absolutely love them! Unfortunately, I’m a size 7 in them, but my mother-in-law would fit in the 6′s and I know she would love a pair.
I know just the person I could give these to (unfortunately, they’re too small for me)
I would love these and they are my size. What a treat a new pair of shoes would be. Thank you
I would love to get my hands on them and see if they help with the backs of my thighs….we all could use a little help.

THANK YOU GOD BLESS
Well I wear a 6 so it’s perfect!
Great Prize :)
these look neat!
I have been wanting to try these! I am on my feet all the time and they look super comfortable. Thanks!
I’ve seen these advertised and am very curious about them! I would love to try them and see if their claims work for me (I’ll NEVER look like that picture, though — not even surgery could do that for my short, fat little legs!!) Every little bit of muscle-toning helps. :)
I live is So cal and flipflops are the foot wear of choice 95% of the time
Just my size!
I live in sandals and flip flops, which causes problems when you have to put your foot into regular shoes as I feel my feet are being cooped up. So wearing sandals or flipflops have really no support. So would love to try these.
Thank you again for another contest and a chance to win a great prize. Also without you and the hard work the contest would not be possible so a hats off to all your hard work.
Thank you.

These look more comfortable than most
I hope this works!
I only wear flip flops, so this would be great! Thanks!
my mom has fit flops and loves them, i’d love to have a pair of my own :)
I am dieting…………. and reluctantly exercising too. Would love to show off some great legs SOON!!!!!! Please pick me!!

I hear this type of shoe is wonderful for reception dancing. I’ve got a wedding coming up!
These look comfy! Thanks!
I’ve recently lost alot of weight and at 48 my body doesn’t bounce back into shape like it once did. I could use a pair of FitWalks to tone my calves. Besides, flip flops are about the only shoes I ever wear. They are SOoooo comfortable.
Lucky for me, I have small feet – I would love to try these!
These are the right size for my daughter and I know she’d wear them as she walks a lot and is concerned that she needs just a little extra help in the exercise department these days.
My daughter wears a size 6 shoe and I would love to win them to give to her. Thanks.
I’ve heard about these-I’d love to try them
These would be great! I am certain I will have gorgeous legs in 5 minutes of wearing them! :-)
Seriously, these sound like something I would love to try…and they are just my size! Thank you for this opportunity.

I love fitflops, but even I have to admit that they’re phony. They’re very comfy, but they don’t tone a thing! I still bought another pair this summer :)
