Chipkos Sandals {Comfort in Style #SeenInTheCity}


Anyone who knows me will tell you I live in sandals. I absolutely LOVE them. But for the most part I keep it simple. Thong sandals in black or brown.

But as I  have grown up I've come to the realization that I need to branch out into what I like to call fancy flipflops.


Well made, super comfortable, and simple.


So imagine my surprise when I find a company that makes adorable, simple sandals AND an amazing cause to support.

Chipkos not only offers a comfortable sandal, they also adopt 100 SF of rainforest for every pair purchased! 

Inspired by the classic Indian Osho chappal, Chipkos Original Sandals are comfortable yet durable and can be worn for urban dwelling or outdoor adventuring. Produced with low impact, environmentally friendly materials; each pair of sandals is 100% vegan.

I love that they offer three colors. But even with that it was hard to choose! So I decided to go with a color I didn't already have in my closet: white!


Chipkos also offers this gorgeous tree of life pendant for purchase as well.

And just like the sandals, you're helping the environment by purchasing one. For ever pendant sold, a tree is planted. So not only will you be wearing a beautiful sterling silver plated pendant wiht a gorgeous design, you'll plant a tree without even having to get dirty!




Chipkos will be sponsoring one of the prizes in the upcoming Seen in the City event hosted by the Noise Girls! One lucky winner will be able to choose a pair of sandals OR pendant of their choice!

Make sure to come back on July 16th and enter to WIN one of 4 amazing prize packages perfect for any gal hitting the city for a special blogging conference or a great time out on the town!

I am a flip flops kinda girl. I wear flip flops year round. In the sun, in the rain, in the heat and in the cold. Doesn't matter if it's 100 degrees out or 50 (remember... I live in So Cal!). My feet stay comfy in flip flops and I feel most relaxed while wearing them.

I've started to prepare for my upcoming trip to BlogHer'12 in August. One of the things at the top of my list to bring with me are a great pair of flip flops. Something that will give me the support I need as well as the comfort I crave.

Oofos thong sandals

That's where OOFOS comes in!


OOFOS is made with OOfoam, a unique energy absorbing material that leads to a reduction in shock, fatigue, and pain in the foot after being on our feet all day. The cushion the OOfom provides cannot be matched by any other cushioning out there and allows the feet to recharge and rejuvinate.


OOFOS come in two styles, OOriginal Thong and OOahh Slide. Whichever you choose is totally up to personal preference. Since I'm so used to thong sandals I chose the OOriginal Thong. How awesome are the colors they offer? LOVE the Fuschia, Tangerine, Mocha, and Black. I cannot wait to pick up another pair in Tangerine.

I haven't ever liked slide on sandals so I knew the Thong would be best for my style. However if you love a slipper sandal then you should definitely check out the OOahh Slide. The Slide comes in Mocha and Black.


Since I am on my feet a lot running around and chasing toddlers I need a shoe that can perform and stay on. A problem I have with some of my flip flops is hte fact that I fall out of them when I run to grab a kid (have you ever tried corralling cats? Yeah... that's what I do all day). OOFOS stay on my feet no matter what I'm doing and are great in different situations.


I've gardened in them, taken my daily walk in them, watered with them (got them super soaked), and have ran errands with them. I even took them with me to Disneyland for a day of fun and travel. Each time I wore my OOFOS thongs I felt support and comfort. And my feet honestly did not ache as much as they do in my other sandals.


The best part is that I can run out and pick up a pair of these sandals at my local Roadrunner. To find out where you can buy a pair locally check out the list of retailers who sell OOFOS sandals. OOFOS recommends trying on a pair to find your ideal size. I run a 10 1/2 wide and 10s were a tad to small but 11s fit just right!

To keep up with the latest sales, styles, and more check out OOFOS on Facebook and follow them on Twitter.
