OOFOS Original Thong Review

About as cool and useful as the name implies, the Oofos thong sandal is one of the weirdest flip flops we tested. We spent time in these flops walking to the lake, skateboarding to the store and even used them on the occasional trip to the crag. They performed well in most scenarios but getting caught wearing them by your friends is going to cost you. The bizarre footbed and sole configuration conjure up odd images of short-lived foam orthotic shoes. With the negativity out of the way, we can talk about how this flop is actually super comfortable. The footbed is made of “Oofoam technology” which they boast will cradle your arch and foot while allowing your feet to recover after exercise. Our testers couldn’t disagree, this sandal is almost too cushy and comfortable. We found our feet sinking into the foam and it felt like walking on a weird, foam cloud. We could try to draw comparisons to other sandals we tested… but we won’t, these things are in a class of their own.
