What to Look for in Thong Sandals for Women

When it comes to shopping for women's thong sandals, there are a few key factors to consider in order to find the perfect pair for your needs. Whether you're looking for a comfortable option for everyday wear or a stylish pair of flip-flops to elevate your wardrobe for the summer months, taking these factors into account will help you make the best choice.

Footbed Types

The type of footbed and sole available are crucial factors to consider for both comfort and style.

Despite what you might expect, flip flops come with various footbed options, including contoured, cushioned, and orthotic. Contoured footbeds are designed to provide arch support and mold to the shape of the foot, offering enhanced comfort and stability.

Cushioned footbeds are softer and offer extra padding for a plush feel underfoot, which is ideal for those looking for a more cushioned experience. Orthotic footbeds are specifically designed to support the foot's natural shape, providing relief for those with foot conditions or looking for additional support.

In terms of soles, women's flip-flops are available in different types, such as rubber, EVA, and foam.

  • Rubber soles are durable and offer good traction, making them suitable for various terrains and outdoor activities.
  • EVA soles are lightweight and flexible, providing a comfortable and cushioned walking experience.
  • Foam soles are soft and comfortable, offering a plush feel underfoot, perfect for casual wear and lounging.|

The choice of footbed and sole in women's flip flops can greatly influence the overall comfort and support provided, ensuring you find a pair that fits your lifestyle and preferences.

Style

Of course, style preferences are another key factor to consider when shopping for women's thong sandals.

Whether you prefer a casual boho look, a classic beach vibe, or a more sophisticated design, there are plenty of options to choose from. Consider factors like color, embellishments, and heel height to find a pair that fits your personal style.

Think About Use When Looking at Styles Sandals 

Sandals, especially thong sandals, aren't expected to replace your hiking shoes or running shoes. Still, even regular summer sandals for all-day wear need good comfort, support, and durability. 

If you're always on the move, then definitely think of a pair of sandals with adjustable straps, a contoured footbed, and light materials. Slide sandals with buckles and some memory foam are a great option there, for example. 

Or think about waterproof sandals with excellent traction if you're planning on a beach or pool vacation full. Too many people think any thong sandal will do for the beach or slippery surfaces, but even pairs of flip-flops come in a wide variety of styles and levels of durability. 

Pay Attention to Comfort

One of the most important factors to consider when shopping for thong sandals is comfort. Look for comfortable sandals with cushioned footbeds, arch support, and adjustable straps to ensure a comfortable fit. True comfortable sandals are those that don't need a break-in period for them to convince you they're comfy. 

It's also important to choose a pair with thong strap materials that won't cause irritation or blisters on your feet, such as soft leather or suede, and avoid rubber materials.

You Always Want Durable Shoes Even If They're Flop Flops

Since thong sandals are often worn in warm weather and outdoor environments, it's important to choose a pair that is durable and long-lasting. Look for strappy sandals with sturdy soles and high-quality materials that can withstand regular wear and tear. While leather sandals tend to be more expensive, they are more durable, for example. Additionally, pay attention to details like stitching and construction to ensure that the sandals are well-made.

How the Sandal Fits

Finding the right fit is essential when shopping for thong sandals. Make sure to try on multiple sizes and styles to find a pair that fits comfortably and securely on your foot, and don't wait for a break-in period, as we mentioned above. A slide sandal should leave somewhere around 0.5mm of space from your foot to the edge of the footbed. That extra room will provide both extra comfort and protection.

People tend to believe that all open-toed shoes are automatically comfortable and can be good for any foot shape, but that's not true. Many of the worst cases of foot issues are a result of sandals not fitting well.

Wider feet require adjustable sandals where elastic or stretchy straps will not chafe or irritate your sides, while narrow feet will need tight straps to prevent a loose fit or maybe even an extra strap. In fact, adjustable straps are the perfect solution for both larger feet and smaller ones.

It's also important to consider factors like toe loop placement and strap width to ensure a proper fit that won't cause discomfort.

Price

Lastly, consider your budget when shopping for women's thong sandals. While it's important to invest in a quality pair that will last, there are plenty of affordable options available that still offer comfort and style.

You won't always need an expensive sandal with a vegan leather strap for your time at the beach or home, so go for a synthetic material instead, which tends to be affordable and even more versatile in design. And if you really want something incredibly fashionable and expensive, then perhaps the better option would be a wedge sandal or other high-heeled sandal, for example. 

By considering these factors, you can find the perfect pair of women's thong sandals at Lucky Feet Shoes that combine comfort, durability, style, fit, and price. Whether you're looking for a versatile option for everyday wear or a statement pair to elevate your summer wardrobe, prioritizing these factors will help you make a confident and informed purchase.
