Archies Size and Fit guide

Archies Women’s Sandals

Women’s Archies flip flops and slides are sized in UK sizes, from a 3 up. Take the UK size you wear in a running shoe. The centimetre column is the middle of the foot length Archies give for that UK size, measured heel to toe. If you prefer a slide to a flip flop, use the same size.

Archies Men’s Sandals

Men’s Archies flip flops and slides use the same UK scale. Most men will want a 7 to a 12. They are meant to fit closely, so the built-in arch sits in the right place. Half sizes go up to the next full size.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do Archies flip flops run large or small?

They are true to a running-shoe size, and they fit snug rather than roomy. Archies say a half size should go up: a 7.5 takes an 8. Size up as well if you like more room at the toe.

Will the arch support suit a high arch or a flat foot?

Archies design the footbed for both. The arch is there to hold the foot in a steadier position, and the foam settles to your foot after a few wears. They are not a custom orthotic.

Are the slides the same size as the flip flops?

Yes. Archies use one size chart for flip flops, slides and insoles. Take your usual UK running-shoe size in either style.

How are the insoles sized?

In full UK sizes from 6 to 11, with no half sizes. They are for casual shoes that have a removable insole and little built-in arch support. Take your normal size, or the next one up if you are a half.

Why does the EU size on the site not match the Archies chart?

Archies give each UK size a short EU span, for example UK 6 is EU 39.5–40, and a foot-length span of about a centimetre. Our site shows a single EU number beside the UK size, and the table shows the middle of that foot-length span. Order by the UK size.
