Fitflops or cheaper alternatives ??

[vicbar]

My friend has decided she wants Fitflops or Reebok ones but has anyone tried the cheaper ones out there ?
I said Id ask the Mumsnetters as someones bound to know.
Thanks

No - but the Fitflops (sparkly ones) I have are worth every penny. No backache since wearing them, really comfy.

I have the black sparkly ones and they are lovely, really comfy and they look great too

I have THREE pairs of FitFlops and cannot possible justify buying any more but I want some purple ones! I would live in them if I didn't feel the cold so much

Thanks Ill tell her to shell out for the real thing.

M and M direct have a couple of pairs on offer!

I had reebok ones last year. So comfy I lived in them and they got lots of compliments but they didn't last the summer. (I did walk everywhere in them, though.)

Fitflops look lovely.

Don't know about cheaper versions but I just got my first fitflops this week and I love them. Very very comfy. Even the toe posts don't hurt.

Have just ordered some discount fitflops, they are called Navajo or something. Kind of cream sole and tan straps?

Glad to hear they are nice to wear.
I struggle with summer footwear, I love my DM chunky sandals but 'men' hate them apparently...?! or so last boyfriend told me.

Are fitflops approved then?

Apparently Avon are doing cheap copies for £18.

I want some too...

There is a review in this month's Zest magazine, read it in the supermarket yesterday but I have already forgotten the outcome!
