What to know about Aerothotic Sandals
Orthotic hardware inside ordinary sandals
Contoured arch support, deep heel cups and cushioned footbeds are built into slides, strappy sandals and flip-flops rather than sold as separate inserts.
Support at mass-market prices
Founded in 2017 by two friends with orthopedic backgrounds, it aims at podiatrist-style comfort in a low-to-mid price bracket instead of trend-driven design.
Direct-to-consumer, women's range
The Austin family-run label sells mainly via its own site and Amazon, with a store locator, and the line is women's: sandals first, plus clogs, sneakers and slippers.

Overall fit
true to size
Most wearers find Aerothotic sandals fit true to size, though the pronounced arch support takes a short adjustment period and those with wide feet occasionally prefer sizing up.
Tip: Order your normal size; if between sizes or wide-footed, size up a half size.
