Interested in new Orthaheel products?

Thanks! We'll notify you as soon as we add new styles for Orthaheel.
Developed by Australian podiatrist Phillip Vasyli, Orthaheel® footwear is designed to help restore the natural foot function and well-being with every step. Our feet were designed to walk on soft, natural surfaces like soil and sand. Yet today we spend most of our time standing, walking and running on unnatural, hard surfaces. Unnatural surfaces force the feet to roll over to gain contact with the ground, which flattens the arches. The flattening of the arch can disrupt normal knee function and hip alignment.

This loss of our "footprint" has resulted in a variety of pain and injuries affecting not just the feet, but the entire body. The Orthaheel mission is to help people reclaim their natural alignment to enable their feet, ankles and knees to function as they naturally would. With men’s and women’s silhouettes ranging from flip-flops, slides, slippers to even lace-up sneakers, Orthaheel offers an array of styles that will keep you comfortable and aligned on any adventure you choose.

Let me tell you about the fit. They run wide, not long. Unlike my feet. On previous reviewer's recommendation, I ordered a size 6, in black, instead of my usual 7. Too short. Today its replacement, (black not available) size 7 Berry Zebra, arrived. It is very wide but a true size 7 in length. Now let's talk color. Berry is not the pinkish red shown in the photo, but mauve. Smoky pale magenta. The fabric is not as fleecy as the black, and probably the tan, but some slightly napped inexpensive synthetic covering. I don't care one bit! Now to function. My back hurts less. My shoulders even hurt less. My hips and, most notably, sacroiliac, hurt less when I walk. I don't mind that I look like a stick figure with upholstered duck feet. If anyone complains, I will redirect them to my strikingly improved mood. Now to plans. When wonderful Zappos and I figure out which of the Orthaheel sandals I have on order will fit, all other usable sandals (e.g., Birks, Naots) will be donated to the homeless shelter. I look forward to actually being able to take walks again. Deo gratias.

Arch support in this slipper is so hard it pushes your foot off to the side when you walk. I can't wear them.

Love these super comfortable slippers! The arch support is fantastic. I especially love that they are cruelty-free, made without wool.

I have allot of foot pain and am on my feet all day. I would go from wearing shoes with good support all day to coming home and putting on slippers with none. These do the trick. They hold up my arch and my feet feel much better after wearing them.

Loved these slippers, but after 2 weeks the inner lining on the right one tore away.

I absolutely love, love, love & adore these slippers. Evidently everyone else does too as I have received compliments on them every day. I wear them ever day, sunup to sundown as I an currently in a rehab center for a hip replacement so they are seen by a lot of people. Everything abt them warrents 5 stars from fit to comfort & style. I was initially hesitant when ordering them as it states that they only come in a med width but they are plenty wide with an adjustable velcro closure. Also, I no longer have any foot pain. They are slippers with the fit of an orthoedic shoe. Very well worth the money!!

The slippers are nice and warm yet breathable for my foot. The soul is designed so I can walk outside as well. The shoes are fair when it comes to be able to clean them. I purchased the pink and gray polkadots, Which was my second choice of slipper because my first choice had sold out. Please remember because this has exceptional arch support it is appropriate to size down. Your foot will be a lot shorter with any Ortha hill shoe because the arch support will lift your foot hence shortening the length.
