The Australian Thongs for Women

The Story

Australia has some of the best beaches on the planet. The coastline stretches close to 37,000 km and when the coastal islands are added, it amounts to more than 47,000 km. Most of Australia’s population lives within an hour of the coastline. This is the reason why the beach has a special place in our hearts and our Australian identity. With almost 11,000 beaches and frequent visits since childhood, we wore thongs from the morning til the night.

The rubber thong became our Australian icon and a part of our lives that is now filled with precious memories. I always remember having a red pair of thongs and my mother argues that they never came off my feet. I may not be able to take you back in time to share all of my joyous experiences but I created this collection of thongs with love, passion and nostalgia to share with you the beauty of my home country. 

It’s a touch of Australia, from me to you.
