Get strapped with the cooks adjustable flip flop.  No gimmicks here. One perfectly placed stainless steel flat slider allows for just the right amount of tensioning to create the absolute perfect fit for any foot.  Most feet, wide or narrow, only require one centimeter of adjustment to get a perfect fit. Our flip flops allow for one whole inch of adjustment. The flat slider sits comfortably and ergonomically on top of the foot.  By using a flat slider and the perfect thickness of webbing we guarantee 100% that your strap will not slide out of position in the slider.

Just like our classic cooks flip flop the strapped version has our signature extended toe thong, a slightly raised heel and firm arch support which create a smooth flowing rocker.  The heel shim runs from the heel all the way to the ball of the foot, providing just enough extra cushion where needed most but keeping the toe box thin and responsive. This also creates an extra strong toe box eliminating delamination and a clunky feeling up front.  Checkered rubber outsole provides excellent grip in all the steep situations.

 Why the long toe thong,  you say ??    When you lengthen the toe thong of a flip flop you position what we like to call the "fulcrum", the place at which the straps meet and flex, closer to the arch of the foot.  By doing this you decrease a large amount of flop and tighten the straps around the center of your foot, reducing the amount of work your toes experience. The result is a more snug fit, relaxed muscles of the arch, and a real A+100 for people who like great flip flops.  

 

Shower with a friend !!!  Got Dirt Problems ?    Cooks flops are ready to be shower friendly and are happy to be scrubbed with an old tooth brush.   Freshen that strap liner up, scrub that thong.  Mud and Marsh approved. Don't fret about getting that leather muddy or wet. This tough as dirt leather will look amazing with time. 
   

 More on that custom Zig Zag liner.   A tribute to our old handmade flops we put together in the barn using a 1960"s Alphasew ZigZag machine.  We love that look so much so we refined it and rolled with it.  The straps are lengths cut from cotton and Jute rolls run through a zigzag machine creating a strong and organic seamless strap which is then sewn to leather. Soft and durable, these straps become bomb proof when backed with leather.

Good flip

Good flip! Do wish is was adjustable on both sides so that I could adjust the lengths on both sides keeping the thong centered between my big and second toe.

Best flip flop I’ve ever owned. Truly built for off road

Nearly perfect 👍🏼 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Same outstanding comfort and even better stay-on fit than the non- adjustable version. The leather insole is thicker (nice!) than the standard version I previously purchased, but the fabric straps seem less substantial. The strap material should be sufficient to last the year or so I expect these to last. If there were adjustments on BOTH sides of these they’d be nearly perfect! The leather is comfortable, “grippy” and developed a great broken in look and feel. Love these and look forward to the version with adjustments on both sides (please!).
