FitFlops are comfortable and durable.  I finally had to throw away the "plain Jane" FitFlops that I'd been wearing for the last seven years when the thong broke.  Stepped on the front of the flop and it happened. Ugh! I wanted a new pair to wear to my family reunion in Texas and was leaving in two days.  After searching online, I found Amazon had these Frou Thong Sandals in Cosmic Purple.  They are very pretty, comfortable and offer good support.  Amazon delivered them next day and I received many compliments on them.  Think they will last seven years like my last pair?  Sure hope so as that will take me to 80 years old.
