Probably not!
Flip Flops let your feet air, protect the bottoms of your feet from hot cement, and are usually very inexpensive so you can just buy another pair when they're worn out.
But podiatrists are saying that they are trash for our feet, providing no support for our arches.
If you are not overweight, and if you also exercise your feet, such as when you swim, but also pointing your toes, spreading your toes, and giving your ankles a whirl around, you may help the muscles in your feet that are so precious and work so hard to support you so that they are not harmed by shoes, but you'll still need more protection than flip flops can give you.
So wear them pool side or to walk the dog around the block, but not as your summer foot gear.
