I was born in sunny Florida and grew up in a little town called Geneva in the Southern part of the state where footwear is divided between boots and flip-flops. Personally, I like my feet to be as close to bare as I possible can so I've always fallen into the flip-flop category and have yet to regret it in all my 23 years.
Unfortunately this flip-flop wearing preference hasn't gone unnoticed by friends and family who unlike myself have a wide variety of tastes when it comes to footwear. Neither has it gone unnoticed by those up north when I, briefly, moved from Florida to Missouri and then, briefly, visited Indiana and Illinois.
In the winter months when everyone would be bundled up in layers with their snow boots on, I'd be all bundled up in layers with my trusty flip-flops. Can you imagine how many bizarre stares I received and how many times I was almost wheedled into trading in my flops for a pair of more "practical" shoes? Let me tell you, it was a daily occurrence.
Now, back in Sunny-never-snows-Florida, Winter is once again upon us and I've already faced my fair share of odd looks due to, yep you guessed it, my old flops.
November has come and gone, December is upon us and I've finally given in.
Goodbye, kinda, Flops and hello Zipz Shoes!
More than anything else I was excited to get approved to do a review for Zipz Shoes because from the first time I laid eyes on them I knew they were something I wouldn't mind putting the Flip-flops to rest for. With a style much like Converse but less expensive and way more inventive, who wouldn't want to have a pair for themselves?
I was quickly given the hook-up with a pair of my very own Punk Pink Zipz Shoes and treated fantastically by their Customer Care.
After watching the mail for only a few days I was stoked when I finally received my box containing my brand-new Zipz Shoes. They were roomy, which I liked immediately and looked oh-so stylish on my usually flip flop clad feet.
The best part about Zipz Shoes is that, wait for it, they're INTERCHANGEABLE. Say you get tired of the same old routine. You can simply go online and order a new top. Once it comes all you have to do is UNZIP the bottom, via the handy-dandy zipper, and zip on the new top.
Want the perfect shoes to go with your outfit of the day? You just unzip, grab the matching top and zip back up. There are so many different styles to choose from you'll never run out of options and there's something for everyone!
Low-tops not for you? Zipz also come in High-tops too, Slip-ons and can be purchased for children and adults alike. The inventors really hit a Home-Run with these shoes, let me tell you.
