Product Description:
The Tide is a classic toe-post thong sandal with spectator-inspired straps, two-tone woven/polyurethane with a patent texture. This sandal supports your feet while helping to realign the lower legs and improve posture.. Invented by leading Australian podiatrist Dr. Vasyli, this sandal features the built-in, lightweight biomechanical Orthaheel footbed that supports your feet while helping to realign the lower legs and improve posture. Durable rubber outsoles with wave-patterned tread help improve traction on hard or wet surfaces. Our feet were designed to walk on soft, natural surfaces like soil and sand. Yet today we spend most of our time standing, walking and running on unnatural, hard surfaces. This loss of our "footprint" has resulted in a variety of pain and injuries affecting not just the feet, but the entire body. Unnatural surfaces force our feet to pronate (roll over) to gain ground contact, which flattens the arches and can disrupt normal knee function and hip alignment and increase pressure on the lower back. Clinical and pratical research has resulted in the unique Orthaheel orthotic design that helps "reclaim" your natural footprint by restoring the foot's natural (neutral) alignment, enabling the feet, ankles and legs to function as efficiently and dynamically as they were intended. Orthaheel's unique orthotic is built-in to our collection of sandals and athletic shoes.
Orthaheel's innovative approach to foot health is recommended by Dr. Andrew Weil, internationally-recognized pioneer of integrative medicine, and supports his philosophy of health and well-being from head to toe. Dr. Weil recognizes that when your feet are in pain, life is miserable adn you are less likely to be active.
Orthotic sandals have revolutionized the footwear industry. At one time, orthotics restricted the shoes you could buy because there were limited styles available that could accommodate a foot orthotic. In addition, many podiatrists recommended their patients avoid sandals and flip flops because they did not offer support, additional depth for foot deformities, cushioning or shock absorption. Changes in the footwear industry have finally given you the opportunity to wear fashionable and comfortable (imagine those two words used to describe shoes) sandals and flip flops that are healthy for your feet and allow you to still wear your foot orthotics – even in the summer!
We feature two types of orthotic sandals: sandals and flip flops with built-in orthotic support and sandals with removable foot-beds that have the depth available to accommodate a custom foot orthotic. Sandals with built-in orthotic support benefit everyone, whether you currently wear an orthotic, are considering an orthotic or you do not even know how to spell orthotic. Most of the benefits of a true custom foot orthotic are apparent in sandals with built-in orthotics. While you are wearing the sandals the built-in orthotic will provide arch support, help control pronation and align your body so it can function at its optimal position. Consider wearing your sandals while you are inside your home too instead of going barefoot. The benefits of the orthotic can only be felt when you are wearing your sandals so don’t take them off when you get home. You will feel a difference and your feet will thank you. Best of all, you will actually like the way our sandals and flip flops look; they are stylish! We offer both flip flops and sandals in a variety of materials and colors so we have something everyone will like. Our Sandals with removable foot-beds will accommodate most full length custom foot orthotics. We recommend using full–length orthotics in sandals with removable foot-beds because once you remove the foot-bed of the sandal, there is no cushioning for your foot if you insert an orthotic that is sulcus or met length. To ensure an exact fit for sandals with removable foot-beds, we offer a sandal and orthotic package that includes a custom foot orthotic made from a mold of your foot that fits perfectly inside the sandal once you remove the foot-bed of the sandal. Because each manufacturer’s lasts differ, we make a slightly different custom orthotic for each one of our sandal collections. We are always looking for new styles to add to our sandal collection so don’t be surprised if you have a hard time picking out your “favorite” pair.
