Stylish by design, some shoppers have compared the sandals to more expensive styles from Crocs, thanks to their cushioned feel and practical design, but at a much lower price point.

The Totes flip flops come in a choice of black, navy, stone or white and are available in women's sizes UK 4 to 8. With a low profile silhouette they can easily be packed into a beach bag or suitcase on the go and are machine washing.

Product Description

The flip flops are lightweight and feature a compression-resistant insole that's designed for long-lasting durability, while the antibacterial material helps keep them feeling fresher for longer.

If the Totes flip flops aren't quite right, the Next Forever Comfort Flip Flops feature extra cushioning for all-day wear. These toe-post sandals cost 22 and are available in an on-trend choice of black, blush pink or taupe.

For shoppers on a budget, the Marks & Spencer's Flat Flip Flops are available in several colours and cost just 10. With a cushioned flat sole, the basic design is still comfortable enough to earn a solid 4.6 out of five-star rating on the website.

Back at Amazon, shoppers who have already snapped up the Totes Sol Bounce Ladies Toe Post sandals have shared their thoughts. With an impressive 4.5 out of five-star rating, one buyer said: "Very pleased when these arrived. Lovely stone colour, which will go with most things. Very comfy and cushioned.

"Ordered a second pair in black too. True to size and appeared well made. Lets hope longevity lives up to my five star rating. Off I go bouncy, bouncy so comfy."

Another added: "Extremely comfy, don't fall off like normal flip flops. The surface of the footbed is textured and feels nice on the soles of feet. Very lightweight, ordered my usual size and the fit is perfect. Seem sturdily made so hopefully they last well."

Someone else wrote: "Fitted my deep and duck-shaped wide feet, have immediately ordered another pair. Perfect for swollen feet in the hot weather. I have got Archie slides but its taken months of hot baths and stretching to loosen them sufficiently to wear and I havent the energy to start doing that on their fit flops."

Some buyers did notice a discrepancy in sizes however, with one noting: "Bought same size (6) in both black and white but white is too big, more like a 7." Overall, most shoppers seem to be impressed by the quality of the Totes Sol Bounce Ladies Toe Post sandals compared to other brands.

One buyer declared: "After many summers as a Croc flip flop lover I've switched to these. have a couple of colours and they are good for walking distances."
