Every pair carries up to 2.2cm of Archies' signature arch support, roughly the same lift you'd get from a custom orthotic, set into a soft foam footbed that moulds to your foot over time. A single-mould construction ditches the flimsy plug that makes ordinary flip-flops fall apart, so they last. That support makes them a favourite recovery shoe for runners and a real help for anyone dealing with plantar fasciitis, pronation, or strain through the knees and hips.

Slip them on after a long run or a day on your feet — the easiest way to keep looking after your feet once the trainers come off.
