From chunky loafers to hiking boots, 8 new-in FitFlop shoes that are good for your sole
Shoes you can walk 1,000 steps in
The value of a great-looking pair of flats that you can walk all day in should never be underestimated. As much as we love that ‘new shoe’ feeling, we're not fans of the aching soles and blisters that can come with breaking in a stiff new-season pair of loafers or ballet pumps. However fabulous they are.
Thankfully, there are shoe brands that can do both. FitFlop's mission is to create stylish boots, shoes and sandals that help your feet feel energised, thanks to smart cushioning, hidden support that promotes better body alignment and shock-absorbing tech – which all add up to happy feet. In fact, GH's style director Melanie is just about to trek through the Costa Rican jungle in her new pair of FitFlop canvas boots, a testament to their comfort, style and durability.
We've been checking some of the brand's other new-in styles for autumn and we're pleased to say the collection is full of trend-led designs, from chunky, 60s-inspired loafers to wear with jeans or tailoring to pretty ballet pumps and A/W 25-ready clogs and mules.
Even better, new customers can use the promo code WELCOME at checkout to get 15% off.
These are the new-season shoes and boots we'll be walking around town (or the jungle) in.
These boots are definitely made for walking. They're our style director's pick for her jungle escape, and we think they'll do the job for weekend walks and autumn days, too. We love them styled with a cropped barrel leg jean. They also come in khaki if you prefer.
These chic cream loafers have heel and ball-of-foot pillows to cushion your feet during days of standing and long walks. Style with autumn tailoring.
Colour block trainers continue to be a big trend for autumn and we're fans of the slightly 80s vibe of these chunky-sole sneakers. Featuring a pressure-diffusing Microwobbleboard midsole (which sounds as fabulous as it feels) and natural arch support, they're worth their price tag for comfy feet all day long.
The eighties power suit is making a dramatic return for autumn (could it ever be anything but) and this is the perfect shoe to complete your look. Reminding us of those Gucci mules, they have the added benefit of FitFlop's discreet comfort tech.
These pretty ballerinas are made from soft nappa leather so they're gentle on your feet and have a stylish square toe – a small, new season detail that makes a big difference. Warning, these ones are going fast.
When we just want to get out of the door fast, we love a comfortable pair of sliders. While there are plenty of flip flops that fit the brief in summer, autumn shoes tend to come with lots of laces and zips. Not so these chic clogs, which also come in the colour of the season. Brown really is the new black.
A pair of loafers with a chunky chain is a shoe wardrobe staple. These come in this taupe suede or classic black. Elegant and ergonomically designed.
If you're after a classic leather hiking boot, these are a great choice. We love the lightweight stompy sole, grippy tread, soft leather and wraparound rubber panel to keep out the water. They also look a little like the (much more expensive) Grenson bikers.
