Archies Thongs can easily be stretched by your hands. Here's a quick video.
While the straps are super strong, there are some places you should never stretch:
- Directly on a seam line (indicated by a faint line through the strap).
- You should also avoid directly stretching the straps where they insert onto the top of the toe pole (the V joining shape).
- On the sides where the straps join to the footbed.
If you follow these instructions, the straps are almost impossible to break!
To stretch the strap, simply hold the strap between your fingers and in small little increments, stretch each section of the strap where it feels too tight. You can do the same for the toe pole if this feels too tight or uncomfortable.
If you try the thongs back on and they are still too tight, you may have to increase the force of your stretching, and repeat this process multiple times until they have reached your desired level of tightness. Don’t be afraid to give them a good pull if they really are too tight!
