Why buy Archies Thongs?

Fashion, comfort and Affordability all rolled into one

Archies thongs are Australian-designed. After realising that there were no supportive thongs on the Australian market that were suitable for the younger demographic, or with any consideration for fashion, the Archies Thongs were created.

When we wear shoes such as flat thongs, we force the muscles within our feet to work a lot harder than they would in a fitted or fastened shoe. Typically, rubber thongs have no structure and no arch support, in addition to no supporting strapping to keep them on your feet, which places an endless amount of strain on the muscles and structures of the toes, feet, and even on the front of the leg and ankle as we walk.

Archies Arch Support Thongs look like ‘normal’ thongs, the fact that an orthotic-style thong provides the same amount of support as a ‘normal’ thong while looking just like one, is what makes this pair of thongs so unique.

Archies provide the same amount of arch support as a regular orthotic, providing comfort that has never been seen in regular thongs. By addressing several of the problems associated with ‘ordinary’ thongs, we have redefined what your thongs should be!

Have you got sore feet and need extra arch support?

We have the solution for your needs!

With summer just around the corner, it is almost thong time here in Australia. Everyone needs a decent pair of thongs to go with their favourite summer outfit. Archies need to be your new favourite thongs! They provide the support your feet need with almost one inch of orthotic support, encouraging optimal foot posture, which aids overall body alignment. Perfect for those who suffer from plantar fasciitis, those who wear orthotics, or anyone who wants a super comfortable pair of thongs!

Benefits of Archies – Podiatry-Approved Thongs

There are 4 main benefits to archies thongs that podiatrists love.

These benefits include:

Arch Support

A traditional thong is flexible and flat, whereas Archie’s thongs has sturdy arch support through the middle of the thong. There is up to 2.2cm of orthotic support encourages optimal foot posture aiding whole body alignment. This is particularly beneficial if you like to wear thongs most of the time during the summer months.

An Australian Physiotherapist designed the Archie support thongs to address the poor features we get from a traditional flat thong.

Very Light

Archies Thongs are made of a light foam material, which makes them nice and light to wear. This helps you to have comfortable feet all day long.  You will barely know you’ve got them out.

No Blow Outs

Archies Thongs are a one-piece foam thongs made of extremely durable foam. Because they don’t have a plug there is no chance of a blow-out.

No Toe Clawing

In some flat thongs your toes have to grip the thong to keep them on your feet. With Archies thongs this doesn’t happen because of the right amount of support. This means you can wear them all day and even walk a fair distance in them without overusing muscles and tendons in the feet.

The Best Thongs for your Feet

Archies Thongs can be excellent if your feet are tired, achy or extremely painful.

Conditions that benefit from the extra arch support of Archies Thongs include:

Plantar Fasciitis and Achilles Pain.

Why are Arch Support Thongs great for Plantar Fasciitis?

Archies Thongs are great for people with plantar fasciitis / heel spurs and are normally a far superior alternative option than wearing typical flat thongs!

The thongs are made from a very soft and super comfortable foam material which is great for reducing the stress and strain that would be otherwise transferred to the vital structures of the feet such as the heel and plantar fascia.

The orthotic / arch support in the thongs may assist in taking some load off the plantar fascia which may help to provide a more optimal healing environment when compared with flat thongs. Source: Archies Footwear
