Developed with a passion for outdoor life now and for the future, Gumbies™ Islander Thongs provide the freedom of minimalistic footwear while ultimately protecting the sole. Go further, in the Islander.

DURABLE OUTER SOLE - our Gumtread™ recycled rubber outsoles are flexible, durable and provide a tyre-like grip for whatever terrain you might encounter. Biodegradable jute fibres reinforce and preserve the integrity of the rubber, so the adventure keeps on going year after year.

COTTON SOFT - finishing touches matter. That's why we use soft cotton canvas for both our toe posts and strap linings. We want your feet to feel as comfortable as possible, which is why we've added a thin layer of the same recycled cotton canvas to the footbed. This ensures instant comfort from the very first wear.

CONTOURED FOR COMFORT - designed to suit the natural shape of the foot, so you can expect support on every walkabout. Wear them beach-bound, bar-hopping, or embarking on a new adventure.

PLANT A TREE - through our partnership with VERDN, your purchase of the Islander Thong plants 1 mangrove tree in Africa, providing jobs and income to local communities while simultaneously protecting the environment for the next generation of adventurers.

Timeless Islander style that keeps on giving - to the earth and to the sole!

Our Pledge to You

Hand wash with warm water and mild laundry detergent. Use a soft toothbrush or sponge to gently clean the canvas and footbed. Rinse with clean water and towel off excess moisture.

Leave to dry naturally in a warm, dry place. Avoid tumble drying, radiators, fires, heaters, and prolonged direct sunlight, as heat and UV exposure may cause fading, drying, or material degradation.

Store in a cool, dry, ventilated place. Avoid damp storage or sealed plastic bags. Rubber and rubber-like materials can become brittle over time, especially if stored for long periods in heat, sunlight, damp, or poorly ventilated conditions.

Footwear materials naturally age over time. Rubber, EVA, foam, cork, and adhesives may dry out, weaken, crack, or become brittle if stored for long periods in heat, strong sunlight, damp conditions, or poor ventilation. To help extend the life of your Gumbies, keep them clean, let them dry naturally, and store them somewhere cool, dry, and well ventilated.

I’ve never paid this much for a pair of flip flops before but these are worth it !
Very comfortable to wear around the house instead of slippers that make my feet feel too hot.
I will definitely buy more.

So comfortable and long lasting. This is my 2nd black pair. (I got a black pair 1st.) I own about 8 pairs.

2nd pair just as good as first!

These were my second pair of gumbies flip flops and they're just as amazing as the first pair which are still going strong.
I've converted my husband now too who has purchased flip flips and sandals and is also pleased with them.
