Archies Has is an arch support shoe which has up to 2.2cm of orthotic support under the arch. Archies offer the same amount of support that you would find from an ‘off the shelf’ orthotic, however their patented design means they look more slimline! Archies Crystal Archies Footwear may help to support the foot in a more biomechanically appropriate position thereby easing the stresses and strains that would otherwise be transferred to the musculoskeletal system. The elevated heel helps to alleviate stress on the calf and Achilles tendon making them great for people with Plantar Fasciitis or Achilles Tendonitis. But, the best part of all is that the straps and sole are moulded to the thong in one piece, meaning no blow outs!!!
