Let me introduce you to the Due – a leather, ballet flat style addition to the FitFlop range of shoes. Available in navy blue, black or cherry, the Due incorporates a “Biomimetix™ midsole” for an ergonomic and comfortable fit.
When someone throws a shoe challenge my way, what can I say – there is only one answer…yes! The test was to road test a pair of Dues in a colour of choice (this time in black) to discover just how versatile the shoes could be.
My gorgeous sister, H, became involved in the challenge and ended up as the my model for the day. We had some fun and lots of giggles (perhaps due to my less than desirable photography skills and a range of funny poses), and after a few outfit changes we chose our favourites.
On first impressions these may look a little bit like a “work shoe” which they would be ideal for (H says they feel a bit like slippers on your feet) but after mixing and matching you will soon discover they can be worn with just about anything. Dress up or down…and be comfortable the whole time!
Look 1: Dress
These are the Dues with a cute dress, and comes complete with a jumping in the air pose – I told you we were having fun:
And a more serious, relaxing shot – because we can’t all be jumping beans:
Look 2: Jeans
We all have jeans in our cupboard and a good pair of shoes will work with them:
And H declares her love for the brand:
Look 3: Office
This was quite funny dressing H in businesswear as she doesn’t actually work in an office. The Dues would go with a suit or even a skirt.

my pastel skinny jeans in peach
I would wear them to gym. Forget the sneakers, do a workout feeling like you’re in your slippers and looking fab. Heaven.
This will be perfect for my mum. Her birthday is right around the corner. Would love to win this for her!xox
Everything at work. As a Performing Arts teacher at a special school, I am super active so comfortable shoes are a must and the artistic side of me likes to stay stylish so these would be perfect.
I would wear these stunning shoes with dark blue jeans and just about any top imaginable. They would also look great with dressy black pants…there isn’t much I wouldn’t wear them with to be honest. I would love to win a pair of these shoes, they are exactly what my podiatrist has recommended to me, and I’ve been saving up! I have high arches and really need good sole support.
These beautiful Due shoes would go perfectly with my little black dress taking my look from daytime casual, to office professional, to party perfect! The one and only essential 24/7 accessory.
Working in the construction industry and wearing hi-vis safety clothing (I’m talking orange and khaki here), I would need the black to pimp up my uniform while allowing me to get a daily work out (PLEEEEEZE).
These would be a stylish way to walk the kids to school and head on out to run errands or lunch with the girls afterwards!
As a dance teacher, I would love to combine a ballet flat with the fitness enhancing design of Fit Flops!
I would love to wear these with most of my clothes, I have heard they are SO comfortable that I would not want to take them off.
They look so very comfortable and stylish at the same time! Every girls dream come true!!
I would team flip flops with my cocktail dress for that work awards night and ditch my heels. Why spend a night in agony and fear of falling on my nose?!
I love my fit flops that I have had for nearly four years bought them when I was in England, they are a bit harder to find in Australia. But love these ballet flats would love a pair in black. I would wear them with everything especially jeans and my tights and short dress. Oh my gosh I think my feet would be in dream land wearing these. I find the fit flops that I have are the most comfortable thongs I have ever owned
I would wear them with MC hammer pants and a crop top..then I could say ” well .. At least my shoes are “on-trend ” lololol!!
Like on FB and subscribed 🙂
“Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world.”
I think Ms. Monroe would’ve rocked some Dué’s with her famous white halter-neck dress… I’d like to do some conquering of my own… But probably with skinny jeans, a lace & floral top & my lucky pearl earrings 😉
FitFlop Due,
is quite a shoe.
Made for me to wear with my maxi dress,
I know these will definately impress
I sure my feet will thank me,
and I’ll be just as happy as can be.
I’m an active on the run mum, so if I can get away with it, ‘I’ll wear them with anything’!.. 🙂
Looks like they would go very well with my uniform
I would wear them with my work uniform. I struggle finding comfortable shoes for work. These look sensational!!
Comfy shoes with jeans when as a nanna I am always running to catch a train to visit georgous grandsons.
I would wear these with my pencil skirt black and a white blouse they look nice and comfy to b on your feet all day
To my job interview! Style and comfort!
Im travelling a lot at the moment so if one pair of shoes can be comfortable and look good with jeans/shirt etc then Im in!
My black capri pants – the shorter length guarantees that the shoes will be shown off!
with my everyday work wardrobe – comfy for zipping around the office and running errands!
A comfortable casual look for me, a good quality pair of blue jeans teamed with a loose fitting jumper, with a pair of Fitflop, perfect for a day out or lunch with the girls
I would luv a decent pair of shoes these are just perfect for my deformed feet i need the comfort and the flatter shoe
I’d be that joyous, full of jubilation, if i had a pair of flipflop comfy shoes. 🙂 🙂
