We love the water and everything about it. Whether it’s surfing at Rincon with friends, or standing at the water’s edge in Tofino while the waves pull the sand out from under our feet and back to the sea…we love it. We ride powder in Canada, bike the backcountry of New Zealand and raft down the Colorado. We love adventure and traveling. We keep up on the latest fashion trends and make up our own. We sometimes go to bed with salty skin and the smell of the ocean after a day on the water. We take care of our environment and help out our favorite charities.
Our flip flops are an extension of who we are and what we stand for. We live, work and play with our toes exposed while wearing the freedom of flip flops on our feet.
Your Own Flip Flop Shops®
Here is your opportunity to become part of the flip flop lifestyle by owning your own Flip Flop Shops® franchise. This is your opportunity to take part in one of the fastest growing and most exciting industries in the world. Usually seen only at beach resorts, flip flops and sandals are a huge phenomenon. A few years ago you would wear them only to the beach or at the pool. Now you see them in the city, in the office, on the Red Carpet and at the Whitehouse. The simple, little flip flops with the humble origin are making their way to the season's hottest events and onto the feet of the most coveted celebrities and VIPs.
We have created a concept where the unit economics, the industry, the trends and the lifestyle all just make sense!
We invite the right franchisees to be part of it...and have fun doing it!
