How To Evaluate The Quality of EVA Clogs ? -Part 1

EVA clogs become more and more popular in our daily life. We could see it in different stores , some selling in high price , like brand famous “CROCS”；some selling in more competitive price.  It is quite import for us to know how to evaluate the quality of EVA clogs. As a Chinese EVA shoes supplier for over 20 years, let us tell you something about EVA shoes.

1. Material Hardness & Resilience

Do you think super soft is absolutely a good hardness for EVA shoes ? Not really.

We need to avoid Excessive Softness: While EVA is naturally soft and overly "squishy" clogs (marketed as "踩屎感" or "step-in-poop feel")ultraly light weight ， actually it lack support . They cause feet to sink, leading to instability and increased risk of sprains .

Here we introduce some testing methods for your reference,

-Test Method: Twist the clog gently.

High-quality EVA should:

    - Resist easy deformation (indicating adequate density).

    - Spring back to its original shape without permanent creases.

    - Poor-quality EVA will twist like a "麻花" (twisted rope) and fail to rebound .
