These are absolutely great.
I could never wear this type of shoe before. Now I can and they look great.

I am really glad I bought these. I need good arch support, and these flip-flops are better than going barefoot.

I bought these shoes last week and I have to say they are the most comfortable sandal I have ever had on my feet! Don't worry about breaking them in. They come to your door that way already. I have a bad back and, after walking almost 4 hours my back did not hurt at all. The only con I have is my feet sweat, the insole is a rubber type so, a little powder on my feet did the trick. They are worth the money. I would buy them again. Very nice shoe, cute too!

Superior support and superior durability. I literally could not walk, because of excruciating pain until I bought a pair of Orthaheel sandals. I've worn them for over a year now. The sole softens some in time and they have discolored some, so I've bought a replacement. These soles relief my feet of pain and gave me my life back.

I have now ordered several pairs of orthoheels. Unfortunately the patent leather trim on the strap got a rip in the first week of wear. The trim is cute, making this sandal a bit dressier, but it just didn't hold up. The arch support is great, and the sandal is a nice look for summer, but be careful of the patent leather.

I love my tides; they provide excellent support for my high arch. I can walk for hours, my feet do not get tired and my arch does not ache. I recently purchased a pair to replace my worn ones. I was disspointed, orthaheel has changed their formulation. The padding is thinner and shape of the shoe has a more pronounced curvature in the front. I most concerned with the change in padding, it wasn't broken why is orthaheel skimping? I also noticed that the width changed, they seen to be slightly narrower. I am going to exchange these in hopes that I received a defunct pair.

I love these. My feet ache when I wear cheap flip-flops & my bunion hurts, but never with these (they are not cheap). I plan to buy another pair. When I first put them on, the arch support was very noticeable, but only took a day to get use to.

Love these flip flops. My feet always hurt before but with these they feel great! I have recommended them to many friends/family.

I never thought that I could wear flip flops again. My arches fell about 3 years ago and now I have a serious pronation issue. All I've been wearing is shoes in which I could slip my orthotics into. But now I can wear summer dresses again. I've walked miles in both the "Tide" and the "Clara" and my feet felt great! The "Tide" arch gives a little more support between the two. I am very satisfied with my sandals.

I have really high arches and these flip flops are the only ones I have found that give me adequate support. I ordered them in 3 different colors and 2 are true to size, but the black pair I received is marked correctly but is actually a full size larger. Zappos is great and helped with an exchange.

I love these sandals. I can walk for hours in them. I had ankle surgery a few years ago and these have become my go to sandal.

I have plantair fasiitis. The Orthoheel is very comfortable and makes walking in flip flops easier for a person with heel pain. The style is still trendy. So very happy!

Love these shoes for my high instep! First comfort sandals that are cute and can wear all day. This pair is actually for my daughter, who when home from college kept wearing mine like this.

Love these shoes. Plan on buying them in several colors. I have a lot of foot pain and these shoes make life easier.

These shoes have been a life saver! They have wonderful arch support and a very small heel, helping to eliminate any pain in the arch. I've also had a pair in beige for quite some time and they don't stretch out so your foot feels secure in the sandal.

Great pair for anyone looking for solid arch support. Have had it for a month & it took care of relieving painful plantar (combined with good running shoes). Well made although slightly bulky compared to dainty flip-flops but since they are great for the feet, ended up buying a pair to wear just for home. I am a 9.5 and bought a 9 Medium and it fits well. The strap area loosens over time but still comfortable.

If you love flip flops but your feet don't these are the shoes for you! They have EXCELLENT support, and I can finally spend a day in hot weather wearing flip flops without paying the price of foot pain later! Highly recommend! I only wish they'd offer more styles!

I was experiencing pain in my heals from wearing flipflops and after researching this I found the Orthaheel shoes and decided to try them. I was very happy with the speedy shipment I received from Zappos and the shoes really helped relieve the pain in a few days. I needed the arch support.

I do not normally write reviews, but I just had to write one about these sandals because they are absolutely awesome! I had developed Achilles tendonitis and realized that it had been caused by walking around the house all the time in bare feet (and I am usually home all day, every day). I learned about these sandals, and thought that I would give them a try, and now that I wear them all the time, the pain I used to experience has gone away! I found them comfortable from the moment that I put them on and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality, comfortable, nice looking sandals!

It sounds exaggerated, but my Orthaheel flip-flops have actually helped my back problem. They change your gait so much that it does take a while to get used to them: an hour, then two, etc. Now I wear them all the time, even when I walk for exercise. I will have to get some closed Orthaheels for winter. They are a great find!

What a great purchase! While on vacation for a week, I walked all over the San Diego area, and never once did my feet hurt! That would not have been the case, if I had been wearing my usual walking shoes. This shoe corrected overpronation in both ankles. I will buy more Orthaheel products in the future.

I love these sandals! I have plantar fasciitis in one foot and these are the only flip-flops that I can wear. The great arch support is the key to helping this condition. I got the pewter color and love it! Some reviews said it was ugly, but I love the color! They look so cute with my gray crops. I wear a size 8 but these run large so order one size smaller. The 7 is perfect for me. I want to order more!

I was searching for shoes that could help my daughter who had started a new job life guarding which meant she will now be standing on concrete for many hours a day. After her first day her feet and legs were killing her. I ordered these shoes which she was able to wear on the next day she was scheduled due to the shipping being so prompt. She loved the shoes and has had no further trouble with her feet or legs. We also traveled to Florida and to my surprise my daughter left for the airport in her work shoes due to the fact that she loves the shoes and let style be put aside. So I will be looking to order a more stylish pair of Orthaheels before fall classes start.

The first "thongs" I could wear with comfort since childhood. Has a wonderful arch flare for support; and the toe divider is soft & comfortable. This is my second pair. If you have high arches, this is the sandal for you. If you don't, it would probably be uncomfortable. Love them!
