FitFlop Crush Winter Boots

by Thamisgith

The latest addition to the FitFlops range for Autumn/Winter 2012 - FitFlop Crush boots look great, are warm and cozy and will help to banish the winter blues.

FitFlop has just released a whole new collection of chic shoes for autumn/winter 2012. One of the standouts in the new range is the Crush boot.

You would never know that these were toning shoes to look at them. They will go great with skinny jeans, warm winter leggings or a warm, woolen skirt. And because they don't look like toning shoes, you'll be able to wear them more often and get great value for money.

New Crush Boots From FitFlop

You know that summer is over when the footwear firms start revealing their autumn/winter collections. It's a shame that the warm weather is gone - but a new pair of trendy boots will certainly go some way to keeping the winter blues at bay.

The new FitFlop collection is available in stores now - and it looks like FitFlop Crush boots are going to be one of the stars of the show this year.

They come in Black, Brown Sugar, Chocolate and Bungee Cord.

The upper is a velvety smooth, supple suede with a "slouched" collar. You can see the relaxed look in the image.

They look like a standard wedge boot, but they use the same special "microwobbleboard" sole that all of the shoes in the FitFlop range have. This was specially engineered at the London South Bank University in the UK and the special shape, combined with 3 different densities of material, strategically positioned in the sole, will help to activate your leg muscles while you walk.

The special sole also provides additional support and helps to distribute the weight of the wearer's body more evenly across the soles of the feet.

FitFlop advise that these boots are "ergonomically optimized" and "bio-mechanically engineered". What they really mean is that they are astonishingly comfortable to wear.

With the combination of good looks and extreme comfort, FitFlop Crush boots will give you great value for your money. You'll be able to wear them with a wide variety of your winter outfits and, because they are so comfortable, you will want to wear them as often as you can.

The fact that they look absolutely nothing like toning shoes (no clumsy rocker bottomed sole in sight) means that they look great and you will be able to wear them with leggings, skinny jeans or a winter skirt. They would be perfectly fine to wear to most offices - or in more casual social settings.

Why Are FitFlops So Comfortable?

One of the most important things in a good pair of winter boots is that they be comfortable. FitFlop Crush are certainly that - in fact, if you speak to any FitFlop wearer, you will soon find out that many people consider FitFlops to be amongt the comfiest shoes available today. Some people will almost certainly tell you that their FitFlops are the "comfiest shoes ever". Why is that?

The key to FitFlop's high comfort level is the specially designed microwobbleboard sole. This provides additional support to the wearer's feet. It also maximizes the contact area between the sole of the foot and the sole of the shoe. This has the effect of reducing the average pressure exerted by the weight of the wearer's body on the feet. The pressure map above should demonstrate this.

Hopefully you can see that there are fewer areas of high pressure in the FitFlop shoe (on the right) than the control shoe on the left.

This pressure diffusing effect is why FitFlops are so comfortable to wear and to walk in - and it's why so many people swear by them.

The first entry under your second heading, FitFlop Crush Key Points, considers colors.

The colors Black, Brown Sugar and Chocolate ensure that one has a basic color for anything and everything in a wardrobe.

But what is the Bungee Cord color?

Very similar I think.

Is the fit and toe shape of the Crush boot the same as the mukluk boot
