FAQ

Fly Flot was born and has its heart in Italy, in the Calvisano (Brescia) factory, where our headquarters, design department, and technical management are located. Most of our production takes place in Italy at our Calvisano and Isorella factories; some is produced in our own factories in Moldova and Albania, under the direct guidance of our Italian craftsmen. Each pair meets the same standards of quality, comfort, and control that have distinguished us for over 40 years.

The 4Energy System It is the exclusive Fly Flot system that guarantees well-being and comfort from the first step, thanks to 4 qualities of the sole:

• All-day Comfort – cushions the impact with the ground, protecting the spine
• Natural Fit – pre-shaped to the anatomy of the foot, it increases the support surface
• Secure Grip – soft and light, it self-shapes to the foot with use
• Easy movement – ensures optimal grip on all surfaces

It is a technology applied to the upper of some models: the material adapts elastically to the shape of the foot, also ideal for those with special needs (swelling, hallux valgus, etc.).

Yes, Fly Flot offers separate collections for women and men, for both summer and winter. You can browse them directly in the e-shop on the official website.

On the website, you'll find a dedicated "Size Guide" page with numerical tables expressed in centimeters. If your measurement falls between two sizes, Fly Flot recommends choosing the larger size. If you want to insert your own insole into the shoe, consider going up one size from the size indicated in the table to maintain a comfortable fit.

Yes, Fly Flot shoes are designed for foot comfort. The self-molding sole adapts to the shape of the foot, while models with Stretch Adaptive uppers are particularly suitable for those with special needs such as swelling or bunions.

Yes, it's one of the most frequently cited features in reviews. Customers who use Fly Flot even after orthopedic surgeries, for physical therapy, or simply for prolonged periods of standing describe the sole as soft and cushioning, with the sensation of walking on a flexible material that reduces pressure on the foot and knee joint. The effect is immediate from the first use in models with an anatomical footbed and thick sole.

Yes, and the difference is tangible. Models with fabric, microfiber, or adaptive stretch uppers are soft and snug right from the start, because the material adapts to the shape of the foot almost immediately. Leather models are more structured and durable, but they may require a few days of use before they fully soften up. In both cases, the build quality is appreciated, but if you're looking for maximum immediate comfort, fabric models are the better choice.

Several Fly Flot models feature a removable anatomical footbed, allowing you to replace it with your own custom orthopedic insole. In this case, as some customers have noted in their reviews, it's advisable to choose a size larger than the standard size so the additional footbed doesn't restrict the fit. If you don't use your own insole, the original Fly Flot one is fine as is.

Not always, because Fly Flot updates its collections every season and some classic models are discontinued. Many loyal customers purchase multiple pairs of the same item just to be on the safe side. If you're looking for a specific model that you can't find online, you can contact customer service: in some cases, you can check its remaining availability in stores or indicate your interest in future productions.

The slipper is an open shoe, with one or more straps that leave the foot free. The clog has a closed toe and a free heel: it combines the immediate fit of a clog with the protection of a shoe. The slipper is completely closed, including the heel, and is designed primarily for use at home. The shoe is the most structured model, also suitable for going out, with a closed or semi-open upper depending on the season. All models share the same technical basis, the 4Energy System.

Yes. The Fall/Winter collections, for both men and women, use materials designed for cold weather: boiled wool, felt, and thermal fabrics for the uppers, with a polyurethane sole that also insulates from cold floors. This is a distinct difference from the summer collections, where lightweight, breathable fabrics designed for warm weather prevail. The anatomical footbed and non-slip sole remain the same year-round.

Yes, that's one of the uses it's designed for. The closed toe protects against bumps and small splashes, the free heel makes it easy to put on and take off even when you put it on and take it off many times a day, and the treaded sole helps with grip even on wet floors. It's one of the most suitable Fly Flot shoes for long hours on your feet, both for work and for use at home.

Not all. Some models, especially those with fabric uppers, are not waterproof: if you plan to wear them in rain or snow, it's best to choose a model made of treated leather and avoid prolonged contact with water. Always check the individual product information to see if the model you're looking at is suitable for use in wet conditions.

It depends on the model. Several models, especially fabric slippers and flip-flops from the winter collection, are designed to be washed (often even in the washing machine at low temperatures) to facilitate daily cleaning at home. Leather models or those not specifically labeled as washable should be protected from prolonged contact with water: clean them with a slightly damp cloth. Always check the care instructions for the specific model before washing.

Shoes with fabric or non-waterproof uppers should not be accidentally wet during everyday use—for example, in the kitchen or bathroom—because prolonged contact with water or liquids could cause them to lose their shape. The situation is different for shoes designed to be washed, such as various fabric winter slippers and flip-flops, which can be washed following the specific model's care instructions (often machine washable at low temperatures). Shoes with Velcro, if worn with thick socks, may leave the rough part of the fastening exposed. Taking these precautions into account, the lifespan of these shoes is generally very long.

The range covers sizes 35 to 42 for women's models and 39 to 46 (up to 47-48 for some models) for men's models, thus including sizes often missing from traditional chains. Customers with very small or very large feet sometimes report difficulty finding their size in all styles. Before purchasing, check the individual product for available sizes.

Durability is one of the most recurring and positive aspects in reviews. Numerous customers describe shoes that have been used for years and still retain their shape, comfort, and appearance, and many purchase the same model a second or third time, often out of fear that it will be discontinued. Some customers have been using Fly Flot for decades. If you've found a model that fits well and you like it, buying a second pair is a sensible choice, especially for models that have been in the catalog for many seasons.
