How to style jandals for summer with Archies Footwear

The flip flop, or in our case—jandals—is, undeniably, the hottest summer shoe trend of 2025. The once ‘most-casual-of-flats’ style has achieved ultimate ‘cool-girl’ status as of late, with the likes of Zoë Kravitz, Alexa Chung and Gigi Hadid donning the strappy flats around-the-clock. Whether running errands, heading to the office, or going out for dinner, the jandal has taken on a new life in the past year—just another sign that the style of the early ‘00s is well and truly back.

The Remix team were quick to jump on the jandal comeback (of course), dusting off the pairs that were hiding in the back of our wardrobes, reserved exclusively for summer beach days and quick trips to the supermarket. But equally as quickly, we discovered exactly why we stopped reaching for them as often—they weren’t comfortable! That’s when we discovered Archies: who said that comfort couldn’t be stylish, too?

Combining signature arch support born from physiotherapy expertise—with a sleek and minimal silhouette—Archies Footwear is the perfect blend of style and comfort. It’s no wonder they have been spotted on the streets of the world’s most recognised Fashion Weeks. Lightweight and cushioned, Archies create a personalised fit that grows more and more comfortable with each wear, making it the Remix team’s favourite flat. 

Whether you veer to the minimal chic style of the Olsen Twins, or the quirky cool-girl aesthetic of Alexa Chung, Archies Footwear has a pair for everyone thanks to their seemingly infinite portfolio of timeless and trending colourways. With this in mind, the Remix girls were eager to style their choice of colourway for the Kiwi summer ahead.

“When it comes to styling, I have a tendency to steer away from seasonal dressing, instead opting for whatever feels right on the day. When the warmer months come, I favour flowing silhouettes, natural fibres, and light layers for guaranteed sun protection. From my head to my toes, I'm always prioritising comfort—and that makes my Archies the perfect choice. A neutral black colourway makes them easy to slide on with any outfit.”

"I discovered Archies last year, and I have been living in them ever since. They have travelled around the world with me because they are literally the most comfortable jandals I’ve ever worn, and now I'm ready to bring them into the Kiwi summer. I styled the chocolate brown pair with my favourite white dress—a summer staple. To make the look a little more interesting, I added a fun belt and crochet bag to truly get into the summer spirit."

“I’ve been obsessed with the brown-and-yellow combo this year, so naturally, I had to grab the yellow Archies to carry it into the sunnier season. I’ve also been living in pants lately—and honestly, I don’t see that changing anytime soon. To tie it all together, I went for a striped off-the-shoulder top, my favourite sunnies, and my go-to yellow handbag.”
