A lot of people seem to misunderstand what these slides offer: proper impact support while walking. Although the Cloudfoam sandals feel more comfortable when you put them on, they don't absorb much of your normal walking stride. Boost flip flops are great for those who wear them while walking outdoors. If you only wear them at home then I think the Cloudfoams/Comfort flip flops are great as they are more like traditional slippers (velvety comfort but no shock support).
