Summer sandal, between an orthopaedic style and zero support?

Have discovered I have insanely flat feet. I’ve been using the Hush Woodstock sandal for the last two years, but this year I really want a pair of simple strappy flat sandals. But I need some support.
I love these Bodenones, but they are sooo flat. Everything else is so clumpy.
is there anything in between??

I think Moshulu does this sort of thing well. I’d like to wear the cork based ones they have, but they don’t suit my feet. So I’ve worn their Wasabis for years.

I wore these all last summer. They were a revelation. I have very flat feet and rheumatoid arthritis in both feet and ankles and these were heaven to wear. They're a lot more supportive than they look and we're easily styled for daytime/evening/all sorts of outfits.

I also have Fitflop's back strap sandals which are more casual but just as comfortable, but the ones linked to are the winners for me.

I also have flst feet and RA and found some brilliant Skechers arch support sandals thst were so comfortable that I walked miles in them on holiday.

I got these last year. They are wide fit but don’t look it and have a wonderfully supportive but soft arch support.
The off white ones are lovely and so is the tan.

Some of the Strive sandals are great, I've worn them for years as and they are really supportive for fallen arches

Fitflop shoes are very supportive and comfortable I find; I have plantar fasciitis and won’t wear anything else now.

Thank you so much for the great suggestions!
Really like the NewLook ones, But there are some good options on the Fitflop site.
