TIDAL flip flops are for living your best life. That means being physically
comfortable, but also comfortable with who you are and the choices you make.
With thicker soles, renewable materials and comfy straps, our flops are also
designed to last longer than the average flip flop.

Translation: Tidals will spend more time on your feet and less in a landfill.
From start to finish, our flops are ethically made right here in New York with
materials also sourced right here in the U.S. So you can feel good investing in
a quality shoe and brand committed to doing things better.

“Literally the most
comfortable flip flops.”
The New York Times
“A travel necessity”
Forbes
“With its high-tech equipment, the factory looks more like the workers are building computers not making footwear.”
USA Today
“The operation at TIDAL is part of a quiet revolution in the footwear sector, as a growing number of brands look to rethink the way shoes are made and their businesses operate.”
Business of Fashiond
“Minimal, slim, and just the right amount of cushion, this must-have you will want in multiple colors.” Harper’s Bazaar

In our most recent step, we altered chemistry to bring you a renewable sole.* We also on-shored our factory and built an entirely domestic supply chain to lower our impact.

*Why include this asterisk? As a brand and innovator, we take our facts seriously, and work to make sure that what we say is what we mean; as well as giving you, our customer, the respect you deserve in how we disclose those facts. As we make constant progress towards the best possible flip flop, with the lowest impact on our planet, the nature of the renewability of our source will be constantly upgraded, until the entire product can be said to be renewable itself. T is for TIDAL but also TRANSPARENCY.
