"Sun" Sandals / Custom-Made Barefoot-Sandals

This is the right place to order your custom-fitted leather sandals. These are minimalist/barefoot shoes. We use very soft leather to make comfortable and durable sandals. Usually I make them with puckered toes, as I have found that they catch less sand and rocks like this than with cut petals around the toes.

The soft nubuck/suede leather I use is 1.4-1.6 mm thick, and the full-grain leather is up to 2 mm thick.

You will have similar sensations as if you were walking barefoot while being well protected from rocky, pointy, sharp, prickly or burning/cold grounds at the same time.

They are suitable to wear indoors and outdoors, although they are not recommended for cold and wet weather. In all cases, they will benefit from a regular coat of leather treatment (not necessary for nubuck leather).

They are made in a single piece of leather and can be resoled easily at home with leather or thin rubber crepe for durability. You will receive the tutorial "How to make soles" with your order, as well as a piece of leather for soles.

If you wear them outdoors on a regular basis, they will usually need to be resoled once to 4 times a year in rough landscapes. They can be resoled as many times as needed over time and if well taken care of, a pair can last for many years.

If you keep them for indoors, they could withstand decades!

I adapt the sizing not only depending on the length of your feet, but also on the width. This is why I will ask you to provide me with a few measurements of your feet to make sure that I make them in the right size for you.

We would usually make and ship your sandals within 3 days after receiving your measurements. Shipping from France usually takes about 7 to 15 days to the USA and up to 3 weeks for Australia and New Zealand.

We offer extra rubber or leather for soling as an option:

Extra Leather For Soles

Extra Rubber For Soles

They can be resoled as many times as needed over time and if well taken care of, a pair can last for many years. If you keep them for indoors, they could withstand decades!

The Sun Sandals is a great little project to start with making handmade leather shoes as it doesn't require any sewing. So, why not making them yourself?
