When I was reading the reviews for this product I was slightly skeptical, as they seemed too good to be true. I have to use orthotics in my running shoes, and wear arch supportive sandals inside most of the time.After using intermittently for a few weeks, they seem amazing! The arch has not lost any support, and the strap has not stretched, allowing for a continued good fit. Also, my feet havenāt felt tired or achy deviating from my regular footwear.I bought these for an upcoming vacation down south, as my last trip landed me with my planters fasciitis due to walking around in unsupportive footwear at the beach and most of my trip.Iām going to test these out for the summer and re-purchase for my trip later in the year if they hold up.

The crystals are a fun touch too.Overall, Iām hopeful that these shoes hold up because itās a nice change, and itās liberating to be able to wear what used to be my favourite type of shoe. š¤š«¶

I bought these after walking around in a sub-par pair of sandals for the first few weeks of spring. I was almost dreading summer because my feet were already starting to hurt from wearing cheap sandals. I didn't want to wear tennis shoes all summer, but also didn't want my feet to hurt. I'm a busy mom with kids who have lots of activities, so we are on the go a lot, and I like to go for walks. My husband and I walk almost a mile and a half every evening. My husband is a physical therapist and I mentioned before buying these sandals that they are "physical therapist approved" - to which, he had a response of something like "they are probably too good to be true". So, I ordered them with low expectations. I have had them for 2 weeks, and have probably put 20 miles on ...Ā MoreI bought these after walking around in a sub-par pair of sandals for the first few weeks of spring.

I'm also 25 weeks pregnant and I have almost no hip, knee or foot pain, or even fatigue despite all of the walking we have been doing! Sometimes, we even go for 2 walks a day! I have worn these flip flops non stop! They are so comfortable and supportive! I'm so thankful I tried them! The summer would have been miserable without them, but thanks to these flip flops, I'm more active than ever! 10/10 recommend!

Archies thongs were originally recommended to me by a physio 2-3 years ago, as I had foot pain from heel pronation and some metatarsal Inflammation. They make such a difference, especially as we have stone floors.I recently ordered 2 new pairs. Archies sizing has been slightly changed over time and I felt the new ones might be a little small. I contacted customer service on the weekend (not expecting a reply until the following week) and almost immediately received a reply by email.I had a few helpful email conversations with customer reps and after new measurements it was recommended that I try the larger size.

I have suffered with painful plantar fasciitis for several years. I wear inserts in trainers, boots & shoes which does help but havenāt been able to find any sandals which the inserts can be used with or slippers which have arch support so after reading the reviews on Archieās I thought Iād give them a try. I ordered a pair of pink flip flop style for wearing around the house. Easy to order & delivered the next day. Because Iām used to a strong arch support I thought it wouldnāt take any time for me to feel comfortable but it did take a couple of weeks, well worth it though because my feet are now used to the correct position, what a difference, Iāve not had heel pain at all.!!! Iām basically using the Archies as slippers at the moment & am being a bit precious ...Ā MoreI have suffered with painful plantar fasciitis for several years.

Iām basically using the Archies as slippers at the moment & am being a bit precious about them š¤£. Iām not a fan of sliders, theyāre just not my taste but I will be ordering a pair so that I can wear socks in the winter & Iāll be using those as my indoor footwear, the flip flops can then come out to play. Archieās seem a tad expensive but if you suffer from foot pain they are so worth the money & be patient while your feet get used to them because it does take some time but absolutely worth it in the end.
I donāt normally review things, but this is truly life-changing for me. I have tried just about every brand of arch support shoe on the market. I have found some that have been relatively helpful and others not helpful at all. I cannot even begin to tell you how much I have spent on shoes. When I first ordered these shoes and put them on, I felt dizzy. I wore them for a few minutes and took them off and then put them on again and felt the same sensation of dizziness, but I left them on for a couple of minutes and didnāt feel dizzy any longer. I have been wearing these nonstop ever since. My knee and hip pain is SO much better. I believe itās a true testament to how out of alignment my body was.

Itās really hard to find shoes to wear when you have all the issues I have including plantar fasciitis. I really do think itās all about the proper support and the fact that these shoes have arch support but theyāre also cushioned just the right amount. Not too much not too little.I really want to try the Secra brand of shoes, but I am very leery that the support and cushion wonāt be the same and for the price, Iām going to hold back at this point. But for now, I will be buying every color of the Archies flip-flops and maybe a pair of slides because they have made a huge difference in my life!
Got a pair for both the hubs and myself and we are done with all other flops. We love that they actually āflopā less than other brands and feel very secure on our feet. I got our exact sizes (10 for him and 7 for me) and we both like that the soles arenāt excessively long but still cradle our heels and completely protect the tips of our toes. The sole can be a bit slippery if you step into them dripping wet but thatās not a shock - otherwise they are the most sturdy feeling and the arch support is great. We use ours primarily as beach or poolside sandals, demoting the cheap (and not so much) other brands as lowly āshower shoesā when camping. Since they are more spendy than others, weāll watch for good deals, but these will be the only brand we buy going forward.

The tan color looks great on my olive-toned skin as I like the best match I can find in ābeigeā colors. The hubs got a pair in taupe which is a bit darker that his skin but its a nice ātanā against his skin that is not flashy which he appreciates. We are very happy with our sandals and will recommend them with gusto. Thanks Archies; its nice to meet you!
These are absolutely amazing, no more tired feet or cramped up toes. My arches no longer ache, my legs feel much better as these with the built in arch supports keep my feet and legs aligned with each other. There for my feet and angles no longer turn in word and off to the sides.I absolutely love these, thank you so very much for coming out with these flip flops.These are truly a game changer for me.I no longer have to worry about having to give up on wearing flip flops, I suffer from MS and was told I may have to start wearing orthopedic shoes for better support and to prevent my legs and feet from being damaged as my disease progresses. I can now continue to wear my flip flops a little while longer.......Might have to order the pink ones now as pale pink and ...Ā MoreThese are absolutely amazing, no more tired feet or cramped up toes.

Since you don't have pale light purple I will just have to get the pink ones for now, until the possibility of you bringing out light Lilac ones ...... just a suggestion šš
This is my second time ordering the Arch Support Flip Flops from Archie's. My first pair I got after seeing an ad, because I have really bad ankles (past injuries that never quite healed properly, and some connective tissue issues), and flip flops have always left them aching. These were amazing!! I was unsure at first, because the arch was too high and hurt quite a bit, but after messaging with a wonderful person at customer service, I trusted the process, and wore them around the house a bit. They molded wonderfully to my arches, and the next time after that, were very comfortable. I wore them all summer, and all around Vietnam and Thailand, and my ankles were so happy!

Due to someone accidentally stepping on me while walking down a ramp, one of the toe pegs snapped (this was after MUCH use, and a good amount of force from the incident, not due to poor quality), and after much hilarity in super gluing it to get through the next week or so (I did not want to go without them, haha), I finally had to throw in the towel. Ordering a new pair before this summer was a must. I got both this black pair, and a mint green pair, and am very happy with both.
I have frequently looked at those massively overpriced, branded flip flops (you know the ones I mean) and thought, " I would NEVER spend more than a tenner (and I would consider THAT expensive) on a pair of flip flops"! However, as someone who lives in this kind of footwear in the summer months and who suffers with fallen arches (and the consequences on an ageing back and knees), I thought I would give Archies a punt - and I haven't looked back! In my humble opinion, these are THE BEST flip flops on the market - extremely comfortable (I have been on long walks in them) and the arch support that they offer make a massive difference to my poor old joints (just ask my osteopath)! I have bought 3 pairs so far - not because they've worn out or broken - but because I like ...Ā MoreI have frequently looked at those massively overpriced, branded flip flops (you know the ones I mean) and thought, " I would NEVER spend more than a tenner (and I would consider THAT expensive) on a pair of flip flops"!

I have bought 3 pairs so far - not because they've worn out or broken - but because I like them so much I wanted a variety of colours (I will buy a 4th pair if they ever come out in a bright red!!) and on one occasion, to replace a beloved pair that some b*****d stole from outside a sauna...I am not one to make unsubstantiated claims on products that I have bought and it is rare for me to give 5 stars to anything but in this case I am happy to do so and would rate them higher if the system allowed (and before you ask, I am neither affiliated to the company or being paid for this review)!! If you are unsure about buying a pair, don't be; returns are free and easy (I bought the wrong size initially and had the replacements on my feet within a week) and if the price is more than you would generally pay, think of it as an investment - you won't regret it...
I have been wearing my Archies now for about a week or so and as I am a crazy lady that has lived in thongs, flip flops or whatever you call them these days, forever and although in my older years I now wear them with socks, in Winter, (At Home), a bit like the Japanese, but of course do not in the warmer months, but I am actually falling in love with them.These thongs do take a bit of getting used to, due to that we are all so used to wearing the generic brands that are flat and not supportive of our feet.It has taken over a week for my feet to get used to the arch support but by golly!, don't my feet feel so much better for it!!!!!!!I have also noted that they are wonderful with grip on tiled and hard floorings unlike some of the more rigid plastic varieties of ...Ā MoreI have been wearing my Archies now for about a week or so and as I am a crazy lady that has lived in thongs, flip flops or whatever you call them these days, forever and although in my older years I now wear them with socks, in Winter, (At Home), a bit like the Japanese, but of course do not in the warmer months, but I am actually falling in love with them.These thongs do take a bit of getting used to, due to that we are all so used to wearing the generic brands that are flat and not supportive of our feet.It has taken over a week for my feet to get used to the arch support but by golly!, don't my feet feel so much better for it!!!!!!!I have also noted that they are wonderful with grip on tiled and hard floorings unlike some of the more rigid plastic varieties of which do cause concern when you do not feel stable.I will go as far as stating that I had 2 hip replacement surgeries last year, yep, guess my age, and these thongs have made me feel so much more safe with the excellent fit and not to forget, if required, stretchability of the straps to suit, I'm kinda in love and would definitely recommend.No, I do not believe any surgeon or medical professional would recommend if we are elderly or having had hip replacements to be wearing these but, for me these thongs are so much more comfortable and supportive of my feet than most shoes I own, I am going to endorse purely because of my experience and nothing more.I am going to continue wearing these and buying them because they are really good, different and better than anything I have ever worn before!That said, goodnight and hooroo.
