These are very comfortable and I can wear them before and after exercising and running and they help my feet from getting sore. Love the whole line of Orthaheel shoes.

Orthaheel shoes have put my plantar fasciitis on hold. I have tried other shoes, but none have the arch support of this one. This particular model is my favorite in terms of comfort. I wear Orthaheel slippers, too.

These sandals are great! I was afraid I would never find a pair of flip flops since I have to wear inserts in my shoes now due to a heel spur. These fit great and my feet feel better in these than in my shoes with inserts. I tried a ribbon strap pair from another place and they cut into my foot plus the toe post hurt. This style feels great and they came so quickly. Thanks Zappos!

Two years ago I fell and landed on my hip causing damage to the joint-which has to be replaced, (I am told by my Orthpedic Dr.)-- I live with the pain each day. I purchased the Orthaheel Unisex flip flops recently--after wearing them for a short time, and to my surprise, I noticed that the daily pain that I live with, was less due to these shoes. I have only one problem with the UNISEX flip- flop- I think they should not be UNISEX-- because they are are to wide for the top of my foot. The foot of most men is bigger than a womans I would like the Company to make separate ones for each sex. I would buy one in each color if they made this change.

I was in a car accident two years ago. Because of the damage to my foot it turned in such a way that I could not wear flip flops like I used to. I found out about these and read not only the description but also customer reviews. That fact that this style not only gave me the support I needed but also looked nice. I figured what the the heck I'll give them a try. From the first day I put these on I've been in love with them. My feet don't hurt, nor do they get tired as if I were trying to wear regular cheap flip flops. The arch is wonderful and the heel gives me what I need in order for my foot and ankles to be in the right position. If anyone has any doubts about these please don't. They are the best things I've ever bought and my feet are very happy.

I tried two other Orthoheel flip-flops and this style worked best for me. They give me some relief for my Planter's Fasciitis. I have wide feet, that was my biggest concern, ordered my regular size and these were tight at first but have eased up and are very comfortble now. If only I could wear these all the time. I put them on first thing when getting out of bed so although my first steps in the morning are still painful, the PF is better with these sandals. As soon as I can afford it, I plan to purchase another pair. Do not know what I would do if something happened to these.

I have been wearing Orthaheels for a few years as recommended by my podiatrist. I purchased these for my husband and even though he thought he would never wear something that goes between his toes. He absolutely loves these! They provide great support, and are so well made!

This is my 2nd pair of Orthaheel Kinetic Flip Flops. I can't say enough good things about this flip flop. The arch support is fantastic. I can wear these all day without having my arches kill me at the end of the day. Will say that in this Orthaheel style I buy one size down...I usually wear a women's nine and I ordered this style in a women's 8. Read some reviews about the small circles on the foot bed...a non event. You can't even feel them. Most comfortable flip flop I have ever worn!

My husband never wore sandals in the summer because he had custom orthotics. Now that he's found these flip flops he no longer has to wear sneakers in the summer. Would recommend these. I also was having slight heel pain &tried these also. What a difference.

Having plantar fasciitis is not fun. Orthaheel does the job. I've tried others but this one is great!

These are great for plantar fasciitis. I needed something a bit more stylish than trusty Birks and after two weeks of traveling they have hardly left my feet! I wear a half size and I sized up to next full size and they fit perfectly.

I love these, best flip-flops ever. Follow the instructions and begin to get used to them a few hours at a time. Within four days, I wore them all day including long walks. Never want another brand.

The padding makes them more comfortable that the Tides, and keeps them from rubbing various spots on your foot.

These shoes are wonderful -- great arch support. I haven't been able to wear thongs for years, but these were comfortable right out of the box. They look great, too.

These sandals a a great find. They are light and they support very well. The width is wider than your average flip-flop so they worked well for me. That said I don't always have to buy a wide in a shoe. I am kind of in between a normal and a wide. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and am considering other Orthaheel sandals as a result.

I got these because I have plantar fascia. They feel great but they are not a magic cure. They feel more supportive than any other sandal I have.

Great flip flops, but they would be so much better if the insoles didn't have "bumps" on them. I have extremely sensitive feet due to medical issues, and the bumps really irritate the bottoms of my feet. On the positive side, they have awesome arch support!

I love these flip flops. I love flip flops, but I needed a pair that is good for my feet. When I first got them, they did feel different, but now I am spoiled, I can't wear anything without arch support. I just ordered another pair to wear out. I can't say enough about them.

I love the Orthaheel Kinetic flip flop. I suffer from both plantar fasciitis and these I can wear with no problem and have the relief and coolness I need for the hot summer months.

I'm loving my Orthaheel flip flops. I've been wearing them daily for about a month. Usually, when I wear flip flops my flat-ish feet are sore and my lower back is uncomfortable. These flops are the answer. Definitely worth it if you are active and looking for a sturdy product for sore feet.

These sandals are, without doubt, the best flip-flops I've ever owned/worn. I used to wear the Teva Mush flip, which was super-cushioned and wonderfully comfortable for my foot, and perfect for flip-flop use around pool or beach. But, like most flips, the Teva Mush didn't provide sufficient support for my feet. I've developed Plantar Fasciitis as I've gotten older, and since I've found Orthaheel I've used several of their products with outstanding results. While I wouldn't walk for long distances in these (due to loose-fitting nature), for after sports or lounging around the home or pool or beach, these give my long, narrow, med-high arch feet superior comfort and support. Unlike the vast majority of flip-flops, these have actual, strong arch support. Which may be too much for some people, YMMV. The heel cup helps keep my heel in place. I typically wear Men's 11 (B or even A in dress shoes) or 44, but in these the 11 was too roomy, so I went with a 10. For comparison, I wear Men's 11 in Chaco sandals and shoes, but usually have excess strap to tuck in.

They look exactly as pictured - I wish they were cuter but that's not a complaint. The person who said the raised dot footbed was uncomfortable must be really fussy because I have pretty sensitive feet and I hardly notice the dots. The arches are just right. This flip flop is well made and exactly what it professes to be. Maybe start to think about some fun Reef-like tops and I'll buy another pair.
