Rainbows arches literally hurt my feet but I have very flat feet so maybe that's what you need?

These are what my podiatrist recommended.
Do the luxe thong sandals run generous? Would you size up or down for a half size?

My 80 year old mom has the same pair I do, though, so that's a call you have to make. https://www.dsw.com/en/us/product/clarks-cloudsteppers-sunmaze-sky-sandal/542572?activeColor=280&cm_mmc=CSE-_-GPS-_-G_LIA_Shopping_Sandals-_-LIA_Sandals&cadevice=c&gclid=Cj0KCQjwuZGnBhD1ARIsACxbAVjCfHQy6ZtoXSO3qpVSU32N8cRKdWd96S8FfE6ZfR4WPQSQvxY8pNoaAp11EALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
Taos also makes shoes / sandals with great arch support. I have many pairs of their canvas sneakers because they are awesome. Lots of sandals as well, but I haven't looked specifically for flip flops. https://taosfootwear.com/products/lola?color=Steel%20Leather
+100 definitely the Clark's! They are the best. Once I discovered these, I threw away all the other pairs of flip-flops that I owned.

By wearing these Vionic flip flops and Hoka Bondi sneakers I’ve been able to overcome my debilitating heel pain.
I’ve been wearing Vionic Tide ll flip flops, as well as the High Tide (more of a platform, so your heel sits higher) version to help with plantar fasciitis. I wear the Tide ll in the house at all times and the High Tide when I leave the house.
I also have Hoka Bondi sneakers. Wearing these shoes at all times for the past month has made a noticeable improvement with my plantar fasciitis.

I have very very high arches and problematic feet (former dancer) and plantar fasciitis in my right foot, and the Gizeh Birks work well for me.
Aetrex is also amazing but generally I find them ugly. The Maui and Fiji flip flops seem fine:

I think I may be you! I literally had to check to ensure I didn't write the first sentence.
Thanks for the Aetrex heads up. Never heard of them.
What other shoes work for you?
Ha, that’s funny!
Vionic have been good as well. I wear a lot of running shoes which can also be problematic (so far, Reebok have been the best). In the winter, I use orthotic inserts.
This year, I decided to look for a pair of heels with arch support and will be trying on a pair of E’MAR shoes. Will report back. Sarah Flint also allegedly makes good ones.
I’ve tried oofos and they made my plantar fasciitis much worse. Many other brands do too (keens, chacos, clarks, etc.).
What about you?
Hi, foot buddy!
I don't have a lot of great suggestions for you; I wear Birk Gizehs all the time (I live in a warmer climate). I also have large feet that challenge as well.
I have some Aerosoles that are okay.
We really are foot twins. I’m on vacation this week and have brought two pairs of Gizehs (one casual and one “dressy” for going to dinner—lol) plus a pair of running shoes.
Will look at Aerosoles!
Let me know what you think!
I also have really big feet (11.5) so it's tricky for me.
I like Born but they need seem to be big enough-- but maybe they would be for you?
Should we start a support group?
