It is summer in Houston and the flip flops are everywhere,
378037 117 Air Jordan 11 Legend Blue White Black Legend Blue(77). Who am I kidding,
302720 141 Air Jordan 17 Mid White Blue Black(14)? The flip flops were out in spring,
Nike Air Yeezy 2 Imperial Custom By PMK(6). Flip flops have become a fashion staple and for us who wear them religiously the latest news will be detrimental,
310805 101 Nike Air Jordan 10 X Retro Steels(5).
Brace yourself if you are a flip flop lover,
646701 413 Nike Kobe 9 EM Game Royal 2014(9). A new study released showed that flip flops may throw off your stride and cause pain in your lower legs and feet,
130690 125 Air Jordan 12 Retro Taxi White Black Taxi(12).
That’s the finding of a study released at the annual meeting of the American College of Sports Medicine in Indianapolis,
378037 117 Womens Air Jordan 11 Legend Blue White Black Legend Blue(10). Researchers at Auburn University in Alabama recruited 39 college age men and women and measured how the participants walked on a special platform wearing thong flip flops,
315371 161 Air Jordan Spizike White Red Green.
On another day,
378037 117 Air Jordan 11 Legend Blue White Black Legend Blue(70), the same participants walked across the platform wearing their own athletic shoes. The platform measured stride length and the vertical force at which the walkers’ feet hit the ground.
The findings: When participants wore flip flops,
621958 090 Air Jordan 5 Bel Air Cool Grey Court Purple Game Royal Club Pink(12), they took shorter strides and their heels hit the ground with less vertical force than when they wore their sneakers.
So what is a flip flop lover to do? I have to admit,
Nike Air Yeezy 2 Red October(8), I have been a flip flop junkie since college. They are easy and fast. They can be dressy or casual whichever is the need. When I first heard of this report, I have to admit I felt a little betrayed by my flip flop.
My flip flops are designed to make my life easier,
378037 117 Air Jordan 11 Legend Blue White Black Legend Blue(106), not cause me pain. Say it isn’t so researchers. Then I went through the denial stage citing that it is an Alabama study after all. How much do they know about flip flops anyway?
Yes,
656503 501 Air Jordan Future Dark Concord Dark Concord White(6), I know they have beaches and big cities,
656503 010 Air Jordan Future Black Black White(12), but let me pretend for a minute. I can’t tell you how many pairs I own and to say that they could be what was causing the pain in my feet in legs is absurd. I like my first rationalization for the pain the exercise I am doing.
However,
305869 101 Air Jordan 18 White Sport Royal(4), according to some of the researchers flip flops were never meant for extensive daily walking. Especially the kind of walking where you wake up in the morning and put them on and don’t take them off until you are home at night.
Apparently,
487471 102 Men Size Jordan 14 Retro Black Toe(14), people wear the wrong type of shoes all the time. Walking shoes are actually supposed to be worn when doing extensive walking. Athletic shoes are supposed to be worn during sporting activities. Who knew?
What does this mean for flip flop lovers? Well the findings from the study suggest that if you are experiencing pain in your legs and feet,
684593 583 Nike Lebron 12 Instinct Cave Purple Hyper Grape Hyper Crimson Hyper Turquoise(13), limit the amount of use of the flip flops.
Also,
Nike Kobe 9 Low EM Away(8), just like regular shoes,
378037 107 Air Jordan 11 Retro Concord 2011(9), flip flops should be replaced every three to four months. Not sure what that means for my favorite pair of flip flops that I have had since my first year of college. I think they might have to come pry them from my dead,
646701 413 Nike Kobe 9 EM Game Royal 2014(6), cold fingers.
