Sizing Help
These come up fairly true to size so we recommend to order your usual UK size. Archies flip flops and slides should “fit like a glove” with very little space in front of the toes and behind the heels. We suggest selecting your standard running shoe size. You can also measure your footlength and use the size chart below.
Half sizes? If your feet are a half-size, we recommend sizing up to the next size.

Why We Love Them
Archies are everything regular flip flops aren’t – supportive, durable, and actually good for your feet. They’ve become a go-to for our team and our customers because they feel like trainers disguised as sandals. Whether you're walking the dog, chasing the kids, or spending the day on your feet, they hold up and keep you comfy. We also love how they mould to your feet over time – it's like they were made just for you.
Archies Flip Flops aren't just better for your feet – they're built to last. Give them a couple of days to break in and you’ll soon understand why people buy them in every colour. From beach days to city breaks, they’re our go-to for summer comfort that actually supports you.

Archies
Archies Flip Flops are beloved by many for their blend of style, comfort, and arch support. Unlike typical flip-flops, Archies are designed with a focus on foot health, offering a built-in orthopedic arch that provides long-lasting support. This makes them ideal for people with flat feet or those who need extra cushioning, helping to reduce foot pain and fatigue. They are also made from lightweight, durable materials that mold to the shape of your feet over time, enhancing their comfort.
Size Guide
When ordering a pair of Archies Flip Flops or Slides, we recommend you choose your normal running shoe size.
If you are normally a half size we recommend you size up to the nearest full size. Eg. If you are normally a size 7.5 we recommend ordering a size 8.
In terms of length, the flip flops were designed with a reasonably ‘snug / tight’ fit in mind.
It is important to note that it is not a concern if some of the back edge of the heel hangs over the edge of the flip flop.

Archies flip flops have been designed to be slightly narrower fitting than regular flip flops. The reason for this is so the foot is held securely in the flip flop and the orthotic sits in the correct position under the foot. We find that most people, even those with wider feet can fit into the flip flops without issue, once they adjust the straps to suit their foot.
If the strap feels a little too tight at first, do not worry, within a few days of wear, the strap will gradually stretch and mould to the shape of your feet. However, if the strap continues to feel too tight, it is very easy to stretch the strap and the toe pole to instantly decrease tightness.
