Combat Flip Flops is a retail company based in Bellevue, Pacific Northwest, that designs and sells flip-flops and related footwear. The organization pursues a social mission by creating opportunities for self-determined entrepreneurs affected by conflict, connecting them with markets and communities. Its approach centers on using business to support peace, a notion that traces back to the founders’ military service and a 2010 trip to Afghanistan that highlighted the role of workers in a local boot factory. The company operates with a small team within the retail space, emphasizing distinctive designs and partnerships that link commerce with social impact. A notable recent development is a 2021 collaboration with Combined Arms to launch a limited-edition branded flip-flop.
