DESCRIPTION: Super comfy, super casual, all leather take on the classic flip-flop. This classic thong is available in a rainbow of colours to suit your wardrobe or in classic tans and browns for a universal look. Lined with calfskin leather and with a vegetable-tanned insole, these thongs will mould to your foot.
I heard that rugby players are encouraged to wear Freestyle plakkies rather than wearing rubber flipflops, to protect the bridge of their feet. I am so happy and satisfied with the plakkies. Elegant, comfortable and sturdy.

Took a chance and ordered the plakkie. Great build with quality leather and rubber.
They fit well, although a little loose on the straps.
Comfortable to walk in even while walking them in.
The leather footbed is very slippery and I'm hoping that will change with time?
Perhaps a size down may have been a snugger fit to keep them from slipping.
All in all a decent plakkie and a great choice if you want to stop the dreaded snap and bread tag scenario.

I am very happy with the service and the great quality.
Although, the colour of the sandal in the picture online was a darker brown than what I received, but it is not a deal breaker!

The plakkie looks great but sadly is too big for me, would it be possible to cut the sole slightly smaller? Its a 6 so there are no smaller sizes in that style available online.
Thanks

Thong between toes very hard, perhaps will soften in time. Sole very hard
Maybe the most comfortable shoes I own! Loved them so much I bought a pair and my spouse bought me another pair. We did struggle with the sizing since we needed 9’s in another style of freestyle vellies, but discovered we needed an 8 with these. So had to send both pairs back which delayed delivery by over a month. Communication on exchanges was very slow.
Received fine. Ordered a size 9 as all my other shoes are size 9. They were more like a 10. Found the same brand in town at the shops and they were cheeper, had better look and metal studs around laces holes (my ones never did) and i got a better fitting size. I like the shoe and quality is good but won’t order online again.
