The Flop Shop

The Flop Shop is the best place to go in Melbourne, Fla., to get your feet covered. This locally owned shop opened in 2005, mainly as a place to find a wide variety of flip-flops, but you can find other kinds of beachy shoes here, too, such as popular Toms, Tevas, Crocs and Keens. This downtown Melbourne shop exudes Florida: relaxed, stylish, practical and warm-weathered. The Flop Shop carries shoes for men, women and kids in popular brands, such as Reef, Olukai, Sanuk, Merrell, Chaco and Naot. This is where to go for high-quality flip-flops and sandals that will be comfortable and last more than a few trips to the beach. You can also pick up sunglasses here. Not in town?
