This sandal is made entirely from Novalon, an unique blend of elasto-polymers designed to deliver exceptional cushioning, rebound and elasticity. The material absorbs shocks as you walk and retains its shape longer, so the flip flops won't flatten out through regular use. Novalon is heat reactive, so as it warms it conforms to the shape of your foot for an outstanding level of comfort.
Arch Support
A contoured, orthotic-grade footbed provides strong medial arch support and metatarsal support, complete with a subtle heel rocker to help offload pressure. Together these features create a supportive sandal that can help offer relief from foot pain and common ailments, including plantar fasciitis. While not a cure for underlying conditions, this design can significantly increase everyday comfort for people seeking supportive footwear.
Aftercare
These flip flops are completely waterproof, non-porous and will float. They are safe to machine wash up to 30°C. Keep in mind Novalon is heat reactive: prolonged exposure to temperatures exceeding 50°C can cause the material to shrink, so avoid high-heat washing or drying.
The American Dream
The Telic story started back in the Spring of 1920 when a 16 year old Italian migrant named Francisco Azzarito landed on Ellis Island. He had travelled from the small town of Sant'Agata Di Piglia to America, to follow his father's trade as a cobbler but in the land of opportunity. Changing his name to "Frank" to be more American he settled in Brooklyn, NY. There he pursued his dream and eventually become the factory foreman of the I. Miller Shoe Company. Two generations later Frank's grandson, Rocco, realised the ambition that brought his family to America by founding Telic. This lightweight, durable sandal blends orthotic support, shock-absorbing cushioning and low-maintenance care—ideal for everyday wear, travel, and water-friendly activities.
