Skechers, FitFlops or Archie's?

My favourite, comfortable and slightly blingy Skechers flip flops finally gave up the ghost at the weekend. I have some FitFlops, but don't think they're as comfy tbh. Looking at Archie's but they're just plain colours. Any recommendations or experience? Skechers have some slightly blingy ones again this season so I'm tempted...

I've been looking at Archies as a change from Fitflop so interested to read opinions on those.
My go to is Fitflop for functional day to day and LaidbackLondon for smarter.
Some of them are shaped and supportive, although not to the same extent, and I can walk in them all day long.

I won't buy Skechers any more. The quality has dropped considerably. They used to last for ages but I had two pairs, different styles, start cracking or stitching come away within three months of very light usage. A third pair, walking boots, have also started to come apart after longer time but again very light use. My DP had an issue with a pair recently and for the price they now charge it simply isn't worth it.

Disappointing to hear about the Skechers quality. I wear flip flops around the house in summer so they get plenty of wear. I bought the ones that have died the best part of ten years ago so they didn't owe me anything.
