They flopped here in Australia…..now they’re about to try their luck in the UK…FitFlops.
Personally I think wearing any old pair of flip flops and walking the a thick British bog would give you a better work out than these….and at half the price.
Gimmick?
Read on…I’ll let you be the judge.
| FITFLOPS, the sandals that “give you a workout as you walk” are set to be the must-have footwear in Wales this summer, according to shoe shop owners struggling to cope with demand. |
| Developed by the Centre for Human Performance at London’s South Bank University, the shoes claim to help tone and trim your thighs and calves while you walk. |
| The makers of the fitflops say they are engineered to absorb shock, lessen joint strain and reduce back pain with a powerful built-in “micro-wobbleboard”, workout-enhancing effect. |
| “They were very excited to find something that says it can help tone their bums and thighs without them having to go to the gym. |
| “And at around �36 a pair, they are not an awful lot of money.” |
| But she warned that she wouldn’t recommend the fitflops as a type of fitness programme in their own right. |
| “But anything that can help to keep you in shape and looks good too has to be a good thing.” |
