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.

Super-mega arch support (way too much for me). So much it supinates your foot. Adjustable strap is novel. Thong hurts second toe (wearing them for 5 minutes, I've gotten a blister), but hopefully this would get better with wear. Very grippy tread and pretty rigid sole. Well constructed.

Got these for my husband (I have about 10 pairs of Orthaheels) and while they felt good in the arch to him, they were narrow and short. He is a true size 8. So we're going to try a 9 and see if that improves the situation.

I bought these shoes for my son who has flat feet. He works as a lifeguard and needed the extra support that other "flip flops" don't provide. He gives these a thumbs up! Thank you Zappos.

Great Zappos service as usual, I normally wear a woman's 8.5 wide and these mans sandals fit great! I took them to my podiatrist, as I have plantar fasciitis, he gave them his approval.

Wonderful shoe! My aching feet thank me for buying these! The velcro makes them universal for larger feet.

Overall, the Orthaheel Ryder has been great. Virtually no break-in period like Birkenstocks. There is some minor separation of adhesive that bonds the footbed to the sole. It occurred fairly soon at the thong rear straps on both shoes. Time will tell if this is a normal stress mark or a true failure.
