Billie Clog

These are advertised as having arch support. As someone with flat arches and a genuine need for actual arch support, it was amusing to pull out the insoles that came with these shoes to note they are actually flat with a slight lip on the edge. With some very basic podiatry knowledge I can say with confidence that no podiatrist would endorse this as arch support.

I have kept the clogs, but I immediately changed to my old, expensive insoles that are fit for purpose. I’d be inclined to take the arch support description off the website as I feel it is incredibly misleading.

I have attached a photo but it’s difficult to see what I am talking about. These are not podiatry arch support insoles, just basic commercial ones and even they are noticeably more supportive.

Beautiful materials (thick rubber exterior, soft neoprene interior), colour, and fun to wear.

I’m usually a 38, but had to exchange for a smaller size because too much of a gap between my heel and the clog. But even with a smaller 37 size, my heel still lifts out of the shoe significantly… making it quite clunky to walk in. I was expecting a similar fit as a croc or Birkenstock clog where whole foot remains on footbed while walking.

Be careful of walking uphill as the removable footbed can slide within clog.

Hoping these will mold into my feet with a bit more time and I’ll have a more secure fit.
