Customer Reviews for Groove Black/Black (Male/Senior)
5 / 5 Stars
March 21, 2026I have been suffering from plantar fasciitis for a few months. Needless to say I was at my wits end when I came across ascent thongs. I had other thongs which were good, but the thongs by ascent are excellent. Slowly, along with other changes to my shoes, my feet are starting to heal. The pain is slowly subsiding and what can I say? Thanks ascent for your wonderful product.

January 18, 2025These are the most comfortable thongs that I have ever used and able to walk long distances in them without getting sore feet and arches. Im so so happy that I am buying my second set as I use them all the time!!
