TipsThe swimming pool flip-flop is a type of footwear that is an essential item among swimming accessories, a must-have at many public pools. These footwear, although simple, also perform several very important functions. If you're wondering what kind of swimming pool flip-flops to buy, choose ones that meet three objectives.
One of the most important aspects when choosing flip-flops for the pool is safety. The wet tiles of a swimming pool are a place where it is easy to lose your balance and therefore get injured. The best choice, therefore, would be non-slip flip-flops for the pool, i.e. footwear with a tread. An embossed or grooved sole provides more stability than a smooth bottom.
Hygiene is equally important. Chlorine added to the water destroys the microorganisms floating in it. However, the chlorine evaporates from the water that remains on the tiles. Swimming pool flip-flops protect feet from germs, for which the damp and warm environment of the swimming pool is an ideal place to grow.
The sole provides adequate insulation from the microorganisms on the swimming pool floor, avoiding ailments such as foot fungus. For complete hygiene, it is best to choose footwear created from synthetic material.
Foam flip-flops for the pool are often made from EVA (Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate), an artificial material characterised by its water resistance. This not only makes the flip-flops more hygienic (as microorganisms do not have a suitable environment to live in the synthetic material), but also safer. In such flip-flops, the foot slips less, which makes it harder to lose balance in them.
Flip-flops for the pool should also provide the right level of comfort. In this type of footwear, the feet are placed differently than in other types of shoes. The weight of the body is transferred to the toes, while the correct place of support is the heels. For this reason, it is important that the sole covers the entire surface of the foot and that the toes or heels do not protrude beyond the sole area. In this way, such footwear is not only suitable for the pool, but can also be used, for example, as flip-flops on a rocky beach.
It is also necessary to check the hardness of the sole. This not only avoids discomfort when walking on a hard surface, but will reduce the risk of foot pain due to stress in the midfoot. This is why, when choosing plastic flip-flops for the pool, it is advisable to choose models that do not bend in the central part of the foot.
In addition to traditional models, footwear with an additional heel strap is also produced. This serves as protection against the flip-flop slipping off the foot. The greater security they provide makes them particularly good as children's flip-flops for the pool.Where to buy flip-flops for the pool?
