Since discovering that all of my flats are almost totally useless in a walking city, I've been keeping an eye out for a more comfortable pair. The comments on my previous post were so helpful and inspired me to search for foot-friendly brands like Clarks and Naturalizers. My search turned up the following options, which I think I'll try out, given Zappos' free shipping and easy returns:
Indigo by Clarks Plush Bea ($84.99):
Fitzwel Shontel Flat ($74.99):
Crocs Adrina Flat ($40.00):
Ok, the last one is a bit crazy for a few reasons. Firtly, Crocs. Never thought I'd consider a pair, but this flat is so much more chic than the clunky slip-on's they're known for. Secondly, they remind me of the jelly shoes I wore constantly throughout elementary school! One commenter actually suggested a pair of jellies for comfy summer flats and I think she might have been on to something...
As for the first two, I like them because they're both classic, versatile styles with a bit of a twist (the cutouts on the Clarks and the sequins on the Fitzwels). They would replace a pair I've had for over 2 years that are truly and completely worn to the ground.
What do you think of the classic black? Or would you take the leap and buy a pair of jelly Crocs? :)
