I’ve never been a fan of flip flips. Not sure why, I guess its that they just seemed too fiddly on the foot and being a biker, I’m used to wearing boots. Enter the Cushe Forensic Flops.
I’ve tried a few pairs of Cushe shoes with mixed reviews but these really hit the spot. The upper of the sole is rediculously comfortable. Cushe call it their “Yoga Mat” sponge footbed, it really is like having sofas on your feet, I can’t get over how soft they are to walk on. The strap is wide, unrestricting but also maintains the shoe on your foot securely. The colours aren’t that inspiring but there’s nothing that wrong with them, they do blend well with a pair of rolled up jeans.
The EVA middle part of the sole structure forms a moulded arch support, which really works. It might be my imagination but my feet seem less tired walking around on these.
Whilst being a great pair of flip flops, they’re not perfect. Unfortunately the footprint design wore off pretty quicky and grip on the sole has worn to show some fabric, not a problem on a beach but they can be a little slippy on a smooth surface. I’m being picky to be honest, these shoes are great.
