Product Description

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!

Care Instructions

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.

the comfiest and easiest thongs I've ever worn! super stoked with these. thongs usually hurt the webb between my two toes, but these don't hurt or rub at all. I walked along hot roads and stoney path ways and didn't feel any heat or stones underfoot.
easily a great investment

Gorgeous vibrant print, and comfy too!

Gorgeous vibrant print and the same comfy fit as I've come to expect from Gumbies. My feet are wide and I always have trouble finding footwear that is well made, comfortable, and also looks good. I have lots of Gumbies and have never been disappointed.

I hate them. Feels like I’m wearing cardboard. The material your foot touches is very scratchy. Can’t return because you have to pay return shipping. 100% would not buy.
