Arch Support Thongs

I traveled to far north QLD in December where I was volunteer at a Wildlife hospital. It was so hot that I wore pluggers most of the time and my feet paid the price... aching feet, cracked heels and a dicky left knee! On the way back home to Port Stephens we saw Bowen market's and decided to check them out. I was instantly drawn to Fran's rainbow display of 'thongs'.  I also knew that I needed more support for my feet and legs. I tried a pair on while Fran was giving me the sales pitch, they were great. I was listening to Fran and her valuable information. While I was there, I encouraged a lady to go halves with me to get a discount...Sold! Within 3 minutes of wearing Slappa's, my knee started clicking when I walked. After a day of wearing them, my knee moved back into the correct position and my feet stopped aching. I only wish I'd bought another pair! I have since seen 2 other moulded thongs in stores but they are more expensive and not as good quality. I also like the idea that you/the business is in NT.

Well done! I have foot problems so spent most of the summer in one of the seven pairs of Slappa’s I own. Nice to now be in royal company!

Just HAD to tell you, I NEVER wear thongs EVER!!!  .....and then I bought a pair of Slappa's. Mine are now 2 1/2 years old & I guarantee I have worn them every day. They're more comfy than some of my shoes!

I just thought I’d let you know how much I love my Slappas thongs,I have 3 pair, they are so comfortable and light you wouldn’t know you had anything on your feet. Well done Slappas!

I purchased a pair of thongs this afternoon for my self and a pair for hubby. I have been wearing mine since and they are the ants pants...... and hubby’s fit perfect. Looking forward to getting some more in different colours.

I have not been able to wear thongs since I was a kid and while on holidays in Darwin I had some shoes on that I was getting sore feet from. We stopped at you store at Mindil Beach Markets where I got a pair of Slappa’s. They felt good when I tried them on and seriously I haven’t had them off my feet since. They have travelled to Bali with me (late last year), Fiji with me (this year) and ready to go to Bali again (next week) they are my new travel companion!

Thanks for sponsoring our team the “Shorefooted Slappas”, in the “Barra Bass and Bream Digest Harbourmasters Invitational 2013. The bright matching purple numbers certainly got noticed! Rog was most impressed with their grip on the slippery boat ramp and how good his feet felt after a long day on the water. We managed to land 2 barra, 3 bream, 4 catfish, 1 shark, 1 trevally and hooked and lost another 8 barras. Alas, not good enough for a podium finish this year.
