Jennifer Aniston’s go-to summer flip flops are everywhere – I put them to the test

From heeled sandals to square toe footbeds, flip flops have been this summer’s breakout footwear trend. No longer just worn on the beach or poolside, the thonged shoe has commanded street style with the likes of Hailey Bieber and Zoe Kraviz incorporating minimalist designs into their model-off duty looks. Among the trending designs are Archies, whose arch support flip flops have gone viral this season with celebs like Jennifer Aniston and Kylie Minogue donning a pair.

A fresh take on the trend, the Australian brand places foot health at the core of its designs with arch support, a base that moulds to your feet and a comfortable, tight strap.
