I stopped wearing flip-flops at the beginning of high school, and not just because the style faded out of the mainstream at the time (R.I.P. to Rainbows). I found that the toe post and strap weren’t always the most comfortable and sometimes caused pain or blisters from incessant rubbing against the skin. Over a decade later, in comes Skechers with sandal innovation I didn’t even know could exist. Allow me to introduce you to the brand’s Slide-Up shoes.
The Slide-Up Asana Luxe and Slide-Up Meditation Luxe both feature adjustable sliders that help you achieve a customized fit. Together with Skechers’ Luxe Foam footbed and podiatrist-approved Arch Comfort Support, there’s nothing these shoes can’t do to help you tackle a long day of walking this summer. The best part is that they currently have a buy one, get one for 50% off promotion through May 10, 2026 (applied in cart), so you don’t have to go back and forth between the two.

The Slide-Up Asana Luxe is a classic flip-flop silhouette with a floral print fabric upper, a 1.25-inch heel, and a rhinestone-embellished slider. They remind me of the colorful wedges I used to wear as a kid, so if you’re looking for a fun, vibrant, nostalgic silhouette and patterns to boot, this one’s for you. I’m picturing these flip-flops with capri pants and a halterneck top for the ultimate throwback look.

If you’re more of a thong sandal girlie, slip into the Slide-Up Meditation Luxe. It has the same adjustable slider, but in the shape of a flower, and it’s a slingback sandal for those who prefer more straps (AKA security). The upper is made from a satiny synthetic material, which, mixed with solid colorways and flower charm accents, makes it a great choice if you need a dressier shoe for summer. They’d also be perfect for a last-minute Mother’s Day gift if your mom has been talking about needing new sandals that are actually comfortable.
As I said earlier, flip-flops and thong sandals don’t have to bring up flashbacks of blisters and aches. Comfy options do exist! Skechers’ Slide-Up Asana Luxe and Slide-Up Meditation Luxe are living proof of it. If you’re unsure of which pair to go with, you might as well get both while they still have a buy one, get one for 50% off promotion.
