The Original Recovery Footwear™
The OOFOS OOriginal Thong is where the recovery revolution began. Designed with revolutionary OOfoam™ technology, the OOriginal is engineered to help your body recover faster by reducing the impact and stress placed on your feet and joints after exercise or long days on your feet.
Unlike traditional thongs, the OOriginal absorbs 37% more impact than conventional footwear foam, helping to reduce stress on your feet, knees, ankles, and lower back. Combined with OOFOS' patented footbed, every step encourages natural movement while delivering outstanding cushioning and support.
Whether you've just finished a marathon, HYROX event, gym session, long walk, or simply spend all day on your feet, the OOriginal is designed to help you recover in comfort.

OOFOS Size Guide
Choosing the correct size helps you experience the full recovery benefits of OOFOS.
Most OOFOS styles feature a medium-width unisex fit, making them comfortable for most foot shapes.
Wider Feet
If you have wider feet, we recommend:
- OOriginal Thong
- OOriginal Sport Thong
- OOahh Sport Flex Slide
The OOahh Sport Flex includes an adjustable OOfoam™ strap, making it ideal for wider feet, higher arches and higher insteps.
Narrow Feet
If you have narrower feet, the OOlala Thong offers a slimmer, more tapered footbed for a more secure fit.
How to Measure Your Foot
Finding the correct size is simple.
- Place your largest foot on an A4 sheet of paper.
- Mark the back of your heel.
- Mark the tip of your longest toe.
- Measure the distance between the two marks.
Fit Tips
Because OOFOS footwear is made from soft, supportive OOfoam™, the fit may feel different to traditional footwear.
For the best fit:
- Your foot should sit comfortably inside the footbed.
- There should be a small amount of space at the front and back of your foot.
- The strap should feel secure without feeling tight.
- Avoid overstretching or pulling excessively on the straps to help protect the OOfoam™ material.
High Instep?
If the top of your foot sits higher than average (a high instep), the standard OOahh Slide may feel snug.
For a more adjustable fit, we recommend the OOahh Sport Flex, which features an adjustable upper strap for greater comfort.
