thongs for your feet

Slappa’s thongs are a super comfy pair of thongs (flip flops) made out of EVA foam. Designed to stay on and mould to your feet they obtain your foot shape, have great arch support, are extremely light, very durable and will relax your tired feet. They’re great for:

  • people who require orthotic footwear
  • fishing or boating

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.

    Have worn rubber pluggers most of my life ,my feet were starting to ache especially the arches then I discovered slappers .. they are so comfortable and no more painful aching feet so good thanks

  2. Janelle Wensley (verified owner) –

    Just replaced my partner’s black slappas (that he foolishly left in the back of his Ute during the hit Qld summer) and decided to replace my own paint splattered black ones too. We are both so happy, the fit of both is perfect and we both feel our feet are well supported again.

    These are excellent, I wore my 1st pair out so I’ve just recently brought another pair, they fit perfect, plenty of grip, lightweight, literally wear them everywhere, I would wear them to work if I was allowed. Best thongs ever.

    Bought a pair of Slappa’s in Darwin over 12 months ago an d worn them consistently since.
    Would have to be rhe most comfortable and well made thongs I have ever had. I bought some more this Xmas but don’t think I will be wearing them in 2034 as the originals have a long way to go yet.
    Highly recommend you get some as you will never regret it.

  9. Vicki Hobbs (verified owner) –

    Bought my first pair Mindil Markets, Darwin, 6 yrs ago, I am still wearing them, even have 2 more pairs, as I alternate, wearing them in shower first wear to mould 2 your foot is excellent, luv my Slappas

  10. Nadine Forbes (verified owner) –

    Recently struggled with sesamoiditis and these thongs are heaven for my feet. First time buyer of this brand. Highly recommend. Will definitely be buying another pair in the future.

    • slappasthongs@gmail.com –

      Hi Nadine,

      so great to hear Slappa’s are helping with your condition it is wonderful to hear. I hope it gets better soon. Cheers Denise

  11. Jasmine Driscoll (verified owner) –

    I wanted mould to food , fully connected strap thongs for a long time. I just purchased black and pink size 42 which is an 11 us and au. The length is great but the make is not wide set for my wider feet. I read the reviews and saw one person had the bigger foot issue with the straps, i had this too. It feels a bit better since my feet have moulded in but i think I would go up a size next purchase. The pink ones for some reason felt more comfortable straight away and were also a 42. The mould sole is super comfortable though and I can see why they are good for your feet.

    • slappasthongs@gmail.com –

      HI Jasmine,

      Thanks for your review. To answer your questions, the more you wear your Slappa’s Thongs the more they will mould to your foot shape. They will stretch and push out around your feet. The toe piece and straps will loosen and stretch and you can also give them a gentle stretch where it feels tight. Just support the toe piece or strap when doing it. If your feet are just in the thongs this is a good fit. If you get them too big once moulded into them they may be too long at the back or become too sloppy. We do include moulding tips in with the thongs too. Hope this helps. Cheers Denise

  12. Rob Whitelaw (verified owner) –

    “Senbluddysational” thongs. On to my third pair and still lovin’ them. Put another lady in town (Violet Town) onto them and she too is very happy with them.
    Long live Slappa 🙂

    This is my second pair of slappes found them very comfortable and quickly mounded to my feet fantastic quality product would not hesitate to recommend them to my family and friends

    • slappasthongs@gmail.com –

      Great to hear Colin. Thank you Denise

  15. Heidi (verified owner) –

    I purchased my first pair ten years ago and I’ve just purchased my third pair. I find the best thing to do first thing is to put them in the sun to warm up then put them on and you can straight away wear them all day long. I first got them when i had plantar fasciitis and i have never had it again these thongs rock.

    • slappasthongs@gmail.com –

      Wow Heidi Slappa’s have been good to you. Fabulous to hear. Thanks for letting us know. Cheers Denise

  16. Cheryl K (verified owner) –

    My sister gave me a pair of Slappas about 4 years ago. I never took them off my feet! I recently bought 2 new pair. The right thing was a little tight, after reading your instructions I squeezed the centre toe piece to stretch to my foot. They are a great fit and the arch support enables me to wear them all day in comfort! Love them, and would highly recommend your thongs

    • slappasthongs@gmail.com –

      Glad to hear you are loving your Slappa’s and followed the instructions to rectify the toe piece. Say thanks to your sister for getting yu into Slappa’s Cheers Denise

  17. michelle (verified owner) –

    I bought my black slappas thongs, thinking they were going to be like other ones. i don’t usually spend that much on thongs but they are so confortable and soft. Well worth the money. going to buy another pair.

    • slappasthongs@gmail.com –

      So great to hear you are super happy with your Slappa’s. Thanks so much for your review Cheers Denise

  18. Danny (verified owner) –

    Thongs were uneven tightness on feet, left thong blisters the top of my big toe as the strap is to tight so to uncomfortable to wear. Right thong fitted well.

    • slappasthongs@gmail.com –

      Hi Danny, thanks for letting us know. Did you know we all have one foot bigger than the other and quite often it is the left which is bigger. So this is possibly why the left foot the straps rubbed. Y0u can give the straps and toe piece a gentle stretch where they are rubbing to loosen them. If you wanted to send some photos of you feet in them I can help further. We do also send instructions on how to mould into them. I hope this helps as you mould into them they will loosen and soften and get really comfy. Cheers Denise

  19. Michael W Clark (verified owner) –

    These are the best This is my second pair in three years and my first pair is still going strong after a lot of hard work

    • slappasthongs@gmail.com –

      Hi Michael, yep they are super durable glad to hear Slappa’s have been great for you. Cheers Denise

  20. Joanne (verified owner) –

    Best thongs ever. Have been wearing them everyday (even in winter with socks on) for the last 6 years. They have completed eliminated the problems I had with Plantar Fasciitis. Husband also wears them and his heel problems have disappeared. Highly recommend.

      Hi Heather, Thanks so much for your positive review and that you and your podiatrist love them. Cheers Denise

  27. Deb (verified owner) –

    I brought a pair of these whilst in Darwin years ago. They are the most comfortable, inexpensive, hard wearing thongs on the market. Especially if you are literally ‘flat-footed’ like me. Easy to order, great communication and fast delivery as well.

    • slappasthongs@gmail.com –

      Thanks Deb for your fantastic review we are thrilled to hear how much you are loving and enjoying your Slappa’s Cheers denise

  28. Camille Gorringe (verified owner) –

    I have been wearing slappas for years and find them very comfortable. Having back and foot problems the arch support helps to alleviate the pain. I wear them 24/7,
    I always have a pair for the house and a pair for going out in the summer months. The after sales service is excellent and always help if you have any problems.

  29. Wendy Bruhn (verified owner) –

    Best footwear. Husband went to podiatrist in them and was told he had the correct footwear on

  31. Dyan Littlejohn –

    On to my 2nd and 3rd pair. My 1st pair lasted for years. I didn’t even have to wear the new ones in. They were perfect from the time I put them on. I love them and almost always have them on😊

    Bought them at Mindil Market, Darwin years ago. Great orthopaedic foot design and have worn then nearly every day since.

  34. Michael Bartlett –

    They are brilliant! I wear them at least every other day and as they get towards the end of there lifespan. I order another pair! It’s to just easy.

      Wonderful to hear Michael thanks so much for the review Cheers Denise

    My second pair and love it! This had fixed my plantar fascitis as I have flat feet.

    • slappasthongs@gmail.com –

      That must feel so good to have relief from your plantar fasciitis glad Slappa’s could help. Cheers denise

  36. Christine Sly (verified owner) –

    2nd pair of Slappa’s for me, and they are fantastic as usual, especially with the fraction broader fitting.

    “I have been buying Slappa’s thongs for years after getting a pair at Mindil Beach Markets many years ago. Best buy I made.
    Now I buy online.
    Very comfortable and long lasting”

  38. Nichole (verified owner) –

    I absolutely love my slappas and these are my forth pair. I tried essentials but find them a bit too a narrow fit. I love the originals as they fit so perfect and are so comfortable.

  39. Lynn E (verified owner) –

    Was looking for thongs to ease my planter fasciitis and found Slappas, instant relief and no more planter fasciitis, this was approx 3 plus years ago and I’ve done many klms in them both in Australia and overseas, I now have another pair for inside as I live in thongs most of the year. I recently got my husband a pair as whether ordinary thongs are double pluggers or not he breaks them, upon arrival of his Slappas we discovered we had ordered the wrong size, I called Denise at Slappas she was really helpful and photos were sent of his foot next to the Slappas thong and she suggested we go up two sizes, which we did, perfect fit, he is now a Slappas fan. If you haven’t yet tried Slappas I suggest you do, comfort and hard wearing and a nice looking thong all rolled into one.

    • slappasthongs@gmail.com –

      Thanks Lynn glad you are loving your Slappa’s and found our service helpful. Cheers denise

    I love my slappas. I have bought them for my whole family. Now I’m buying them for my Grandchildren .

  41. Cathie Inkston (verified owner) –

    Brought thongs for hubby, he is very happy with them…..as the arch support is helping him walk properly and not to the side

  42. Larna Sloane –

    Omg these things are amazing they feel like you have nothing on totally love them

  43. Debbie Elder (verified owner) –

    I found Slappas in Katherine when we were travelling across Australia a few years ago. Just purchased 2 more pairs as they were so comfortable from the first day I put them on.

  44. Andrew M –

    Not the cheapest thongs but one of the best, I just bought a few pairs again after 5 years and the old ones are still going strong, Slappers are the go, even the double pluggers out there just don’t cut the mustard. And unlike std flat thongs these are good for your feet. Well worth the spend, way cheaper in the long run.

  45. John Thomas (verified owner) –

    Great to wear having had plantar fasciitus. A fraction more length from toe strap to end of thong would be good.

  46. Susan (verified owner) –

    My husband has worn Slappas for several years & I bought my 1st pair last month. We love the comfort. I had to have administrative assistance to organise a larger size & PayPal refund, & the Management bent over backwards to help me. Can’t speak more highly of the Customer Support & their product.

  47. Ross (verified owner) –

    Great product, great delivery and order process

  48. Belinda Vitler (verified owner) –

    Very comfortable as soon as I put them on ! I have plantir fasciitis and these have helped immensely! Since I can’t walk around flat foot anymore these are great ! I went a size up from my usual size so they wouldn’t be too tight , will be buying more when these need replacement thanks so much !

  49. Richard Mulligan (verified owner) –

    Brilliant for any one that has had a foot injury and needs Orthotic support glad I came across these

  50. Ken (verified owner) –

    Great thongs, so comfy, third pair.

  51. Narelle (verified owner) –

    I live in thongs when I’m not at work, but as someone that suffers from Plantar fasciitis I kept searching for the perfect pair of thongs that weren’t going to make by feet scream, came across slappa’s on Facebook and made the decision to buy a pair, No Regrets, I now have my parents wearing them too. We love our Slappa’s

  52. CRAIG Fort (verified owner) –

    Great thongs
    Comfy straight out of the packet
    Will be buying again once these wear out,

  53. Caz M (verified owner) –

    The best quality thongs ever. Everyone in the family has at least one pair – my husband won’t wear any other brand. Extremely comfortable.

  54. Paul Madden (verified owner) –

    I was recommended by a friend a while back these are my 2nd pair the best by far I wear orthotics inner soles also but look forward to getting my Slappa’s on every day just perfect.

  55. Martin Williams (verified owner) –

    Super comfortable and like a second skin. These thongs just mould to my feet and are so lightweight. Had 4 pairs now and will continue to come back as a repeat customer. This pair has even survived a puppy attack by our Retriever!

  56. Peter Thompson (verified owner) –

    Comfortable, but a bit narrow and tight resulting in some blisters. Will go with the next size up for the next pair.

  57. David (verified owner) –

    Very comfortable and great for the feet
