Fitflops

A message from the Staff of A Spring in Your Step:

Every day, thousands of Michiganders can be seen wearing "flip-flops" as they walk around town. You see them everywhere you go - on the street, in the grocery store and at the lake. While these shoes may look comfortable, they may be hurting your feet.

In a recent article published in USA Today, a spokesperson fro the American College of Foot & Ankle Surgeons says "Flip-Flops were never meant to be everyday shoes. They were meant to wear from the locker room to the pool and back." Common foot ailments associated with ordinary flip-flops can include heel and arch strain, calluses and hammertoes.

But can a flip-flop actually be good for you? A new shoe called the "FITFLOP" has just arrived from the UK and it's now available at A Spring in Your Step. Designed in a bio mechanics lab in London, this revolutionary footwear activates the muscles in your feet, calves, thighs and buttocks, while helping you maintain better posture.
