Flip-flops are a convenient and comfortable alternative during the warmer months. Choosing the right pair can help keep your feet healthy and safe.

The American Podiatric Medical Association offers this advice:

• Shop for flip-flops made of soft, high-quality leather to help protect against blisters.
• Make sure the flip-flops bend at the balls of the feet, but aren’t so flimsy that they bend in half.
• Check that the flip-flops fit well. Your foot should never hang off the edge.
• Replace worn flip-flops with a new pair.
