Design Your Own Printed Flip Flops for Kids

How Your Kids Flip Flops Are Made

A spongy, durable foam with a non-slip rigid sole is cut to size, and then wrapped with Duchess satin fabric featuring your designs. Using a professional printing process, your designs are reproduced onto the breathable fabric which is then carefully wrapped around the base. Our printing method ensures a vibrant, permanent print by fusing the printing inks directly with the fibers of the fabric, meaning it won’t fade over time even with poolside splashes. Our skilled makers hand-craft your kids new shoes all onsite in our London factory, giving every pair extra love and attention to detail.

No more tipping out sandy trainers at the end of a lovely beach trip; these custom printed flip flops are the ideal Summer footwear for your little ones. Treat the kids to some beautiful new flip flops, printed all over with your design – perfect for sunny days out or trips to the swimming pool. Created from a sturdy foam which is coated in a soft and breathable fabric, they’ll never want to take off their new comfy shoes which will feel lovely against their little toes. The lightweight, yet durable foam is ideal to cushion the feet and add extra support, and the soft plastic strap is snug but won’t dig or cut in. Finished off with a rigid sole to prevent any slips around the pool, so no need to worry when they’re off having fun! Upload your artwork or photos onto our online design studio to customize what’s sure to be their new favorite footwear and give them a Summer treat to remember for years to come – you can even print different designs onto each shoe if you’re feeling creative.

How Would you Like the Edge?

We have four finishing options for your fabric order: 

• As it comes. We cut around your image, leaving a simply scissor cut, perhaps uneven white fabric border. 
• Hem with thread. We can hem your fabric with a choice of black or white thread. Please allow 1-2 days additional production time. See below for information on how hemming affects the size of your print. We offer an overlock hem, as well as a folded hem (one or two fold depending on the fabric) however not all fabrics are suited to both hem types. If you can see both options, it means both are suitable, and you will be able to choose whichever you prefer. 
• Cut on the line. We will cut neatly on the edge of your design. This means that if you have a border around your design we will cut around that border, if your design takes the whole space of the fabric, then we will neatly cut around the edge of that image. Please be aware, when we cut along the line, we have to cut against the grain of the fabric. This is the standard procedure for fabric cutting. This means that with some fabrics, for example, Georgette and Mulmul, which have a slight wave in them, some fraying will occur. This is unavoidable, as the cut follows the grain of the textile. 

All of our fabrics are cut manually by hand, with the utmost care and attention. If your fabric has a slightly uneven look on the edges or a touch of fraying, this does not indicate a flaw in the textile. It is not always possible to achieve a perfectly straight cut with certain fabrics, so please do bare this in mind when it comes to your design. If you have any queries or would like to know about our cutting methods in more detail, please get in touch and we will be more than happy to discuss them with you.

Please note: As we make everything by hand, all sizes may vary slightly.

For further information about our fabrics see our FAQs.

What sizes do the flip flops come in?

What are the flip flops made from?

What design tips can you give me?

These printed flip flops have a plastic strap punctured into the sole at three points, so avoid putting any important parts of your design around the toe separator. Simply click the product view option in the online design studio to ensure your complete design is looking perfect. Why not try customizing your image with some text? Print your kids name on their flip flops so they can easily find them after a swimming lesson, and there won’t be anymore cases of flip flops going walkabouts.
