Crocs has some styles like TOMS. |
Op here...I've worn only orthotic-type flip-flops, like the Orthoheel brand, but they are heavy and kind of ugly, even for flip flops. I also have a pair of athletic styled flats (mine are Clarks I think) but want something more summery that I'm more likely to wear when it's warm. The Crocs suggestion is interesting. I didn't realize they had anything beyond my running-to-the-mailbox clogs and sandals.
Thanks for all the suggestions! |
Might not be quite what you are looking for, but I swear by Ecco after years of plantar fasciitis.

As a PP mentioned, consider Reefs. I have the kind she described but for adults and I find them very comfortable. |
I bought a pair of Reefs. They initially felt comfortable in the store but walking around all day in them and my feet were killing and I started getting foot spasms. Never b/f has a shoe done this to me. I ended up donating them. |
I have the same issue you have. I did see a Tom's shoe that laced up at Shi by Journeys that had arch support.
Try Skechers version of Tom's, Bob's. They have memory cushion on the bottom and I find to be much more comfortable. Also, i know you don't want sandals but Berkinstock makes some really cute shoes with loads of arch support. You might check them out. |
second this! |
I have collapsed arches in both of my ankles and recently shelled out money to buy Vince sneakers that have a similar silhouette to Toms. If you are looking for something under $50 I'd recommend Dr. Scholls - they have a lot of cute styles! |
I got a cute pair of Vionic slip-ons from Amazon. They don’t look exactly like Toms, but it’s similar and they have awesome arch support. I can’t wear anything without a lot of arch support! |
Fit Flop brand slip-ons work for me with high arches. |
Vionic brand flip flops - really good arch support |
Go to Comfort One and tell them what you are looking for. |
+1. I bought mine from Nordstrom because I wanted to try them on before committing. I have incredibly flat feet and was looking for arch support without adding an insert. The Vionics are so comfortable. |

This is what I do. |
