Along with tank tops, ice cream, and plenty of vitamin D, flip flops may be one of the best parts of summer.
We’ve been testing women’s flip flops for over a decade, and we’ve worn over 50 pairs. We took these flips biking through cities, hiking on mucky backcountry trails, walking through rivers, and running daily errands, all in the name of helping you find the perfect pair.
Hands down, the best flip flops are the Birkenstock Gizeh. No other model combines the comfort, support, and traction so seamlessly, and looks good while doing it.
The best bargain is the Archies flip flop. They feature a unique closed-cell foam and EVA construction, along with arch support and stretchable toe straps that form to the shape of your foot after just a few days of use.
If you want a summer shoe, but can’t stand a toepost, we’ve also tested sandals for casual wear and outdoor adventures.
