thongs for your feet

Find the
perfect fit
To ensure you order the correct size measure a pair of your existing thongs, flip flops or sandals from the big toe to the middle of the back of the heel or to where the heel of your foot sits in the thongs – refer to illustration below. Compare your measurement to our Slappa’s Thongs size chart.
Note: Do not measure your foot itself as this will result in incorrect sizing. Slappa’s need to fit firm as they will give a little once moulded to your feet.

I’ve been wearing these for years. Firstly because I have plantar fasciitis. I could barely put my heels to the floor and had been prescribed uncomfortable supports for my shoes. I’d tried other insoles too. After my first wear of Slappas the relief was amazing. More recently I’ve undergone chemotherapy and radiation. The chemotherapy resulted in a numbing of my extremities (fingers, toes). I have to be careful walking on uneven ground now and my Slappas help keep me steady on my feet. I’ve personally found that Slappas wear better than at least one other brand of arch support thongs sold by chemists. Can highly recommend.

HI Michelle, thank you very much for your testimonial. I so glad to hear Slappa’s helped your plantar fasciitis and now with the numbness from your chemotherapy treatment. A friend of mine said Slappa’s were the only footwear she could wear when going through Chemo. All the best with your treatment. Cheers Denise

I discovered Slappas quite a few years ago and I’ve purchased maybe 5 or 6 pairs during this time. I’ve never actually worn a pair out, but I now have bathroom thongs, garden thongs, dog walking thongs etc etc. My worst problem is that my dog just loves to chew on them so I have to make sure to keep them out of reach. Fortunately Slappas helped a couple of times when they were able to supply a single thong to replace a chewed on one. Slappas are my go to footwear whenever I’m at home and I can’t see that changing any time soon. They are very very comfortable, long lasting and great value for money. They look pretty good too!

I love Slappa thongs . Ever since I had discovered that I had plantar fasciists I have paid a couple of thousand $ for special shoes
Since I discovered slappas I have worn these every day and the relief was amazing
I recommend these to a neighbour that had just been diagnosed with PF and he ordered them straight away
He was amazed that they only took 2 days to arrive and the relief on his feet was instant. He wears them every where
I love all the colours
I’m on pair number 5 now as I live in them and have worn them out
Loving all the colours too
Thankyou slappas

I have bought two pairs of thongs over the last two years and loved them for their comfort and support, however, I have just purchased a third pair and was most disappointed as the whole thong is a much harder material than my two previous pairs and nowhere near as comfortable. I will not be purchasing any more, sadly.

Hi I luv Slapper thongs, I am normally a size 7, l brought an equivalent size 7 last year and they were a little big, so this year I brought a size 6, but my right thong is too tight on my right big toe, which unfortunately has created pain and a blister. So sadly I’m not sure what to do as I normally live in them. Any suggestions ?

I’d been looking at these for awhile now and decided after reading many reviews to give them a try as I suffer from numerous feet problems. These so far have felt good on my feet, love the range of you have and are well worth the money spent.

I went to Darwin about 8 years ago for a holiday with family and was introduced to slapper thongs at the Mindal Markets. I have worn no other thongs since. My whole family now is addicted to the thongs and our circle of friends is also beginning to wear them. They are the most comfortable thongs and great for all uses. As the old saying goes do yourself a favour and get yourself a pair or two. Get a collection of different colours so they go with all outfits. You wont be disappointed.

A friend recommended your thongs so when my old ones gave up the ghost, I thought I’d treat myself. Wow, I wish I’d bought them earlier. I can wear them all day and feel comfortable. And the bonus was I bought them while on sale! I’ll certainly recommend to my family and friends. Give your feet a treat and buy some Slappas.

Essentials vs Originals
Our essentials thong range is slightly softer so you mould into them almost instantly, 2mm longer around the toes and slightly wider allowing us to fit even more people into Slappa’s. We have made sure these adjustments only affect the shape of the thongs, not the size, so you can continue to order the same size as before. Nonetheless, our originals thong range is still available if you prefer this style!
Slappa's Thongs
Size Guide
To ensure you order the correct size measure a pair of your existing thongs, flip flops or sandals from the big toe to the middle of the back of the heel or to where the heel of your foot sits in the thongs.
If you have ordered Slappa's Thongs before, some sizes have changed. Please check out our reorder reference chart to make sure you order the correct size.
