The Gear Junkie Loves SOLE's Flips

Stephen Regenold, adventurer, writer and renowned gear junkie tested out various technical flip-flop sandals on the market and here is what he had to say about our Flips:

A new entry this year, insole company Sole, unveiled the Platinum Sandals (above, $79.95, www.solesandals.com), which are an orthopedic option in a genre often lacking anything resembling foot support. Indeed, Sole includes a metatarsal pad, an arch area and a contoured heel cup to provide continuous contact points across the sole of your foot.

Bonus: The Platinum's footbed, which is based off the company's insole technology, molds over time to your footprint, creating a custom fit. The company sells the Platinum in several colors and in men's and women's models, each tweaked to the anatomical idiosyncrasies of the gender.

Sole's high-end Platinums are hands down most comfortable. They also look the best, in my opinion, with a handsome design appropriate in the outdoors or for patio dining.

Thanks for the kind words! You can read the entire review over at Stephen's site: www.gearjunkie.com.
