Description
This sandal has different sole layers:
- 4 mm Vibram Supernewflex light sole (with high rubber content)
- 3 mm cork latex for ventilation and heat and cold insulation
- 1.5mm Poron for shock absorption (stitched under the surface)
- Sole upper material made from pollutant-tested, skin-friendly microfleece (anti-bacterial)
The upper shaft is made of dark brown vegetable-tanned leather. The sandals can be individually adjusted to your feet with the metal pin buckles. So you can be out and about for longer with these barefoot sandals.
Men’s sandals (sizes 40-47) have wider straps and a wider fit. We recommend these sandals for every occasion, comfort, home and travel sandal.
What is so special about vegetable-tanned leather?
Leather is a raw material that is closely linked to the history of mankind. Skin has been used for thousands of years to make clothing, blankets and even dwellings. In order to make them supple, preserve and protect them, preservation processes known as tanning have been developed. Classic leather tanning uses a process in which many aggressive chemicals are used; this is not the case with vegetable (plant-based) tanning, in which the leather is processed in a much more natural way.
Vegetable tanning ensures that the raw material is stabilized and the rawhide becomes a firm, robust and shiny leather. Bark, twigs, leaves and even fruit are used in the stages of the tanning process, which can take between one and three months
